The Priest reads four prayers of light

Psalm 103

Bless the Lord, O my soul; O Lord my

God, Thou hast been magnified

exceedingly. Confession and majesty hast

Thou put on, Who coverest Thyself with

light as with a garment, Who stretchest out

the heaven as it were a curtain; Who

supporteth His chambers in the waters,

Who appointeth the clouds for His ascent,

Who walketh upon the wings of the winds,

Who maketh His angels spirits, and His

ministers a flame of fire, Who establisheth

the earth in the sureness thereof; it shall not

be turned back for ever and ever. The

abyss like a garment is His mantle; upon

the mountains shall the waters stand. At

Thy rebuke they will flee, at the voice of

Thy thunder shall they be afraid. The

mountains rise up and the plains sink

down, unto the place where Thou hast

established them. Thou appointedst a

bound that they shall not pass, neither

return to cover the earth. He sendeth forth

springs in the valleys; between the

mountains will the waters run. They shall

give drink to all the beasts of the field; the

wild asses will wait to quench their thirst.

Beside them will the birds of the heaven

lodge, from the midst of the rocks will they

give voice. He watereth the mountains

from His chambers; the earth shall be

satisfied with the fruit of Thy works. He

causeth the grass to grow for the cattle, and

green herb for the service of men, To bring

forth bread out of the earth; and wine

maketh glad the heart of man. To make his

face cheerful with oil; and bread

strengtheneth man's heart. The trees of the

plain shall be satisfied, the cedars of

Lebanon, which Thou hast planted. There

will the sparrows make their nests; the

house of the heron is chief among them.

The high mountains are a refuge for the

harts, and so is the rock for the hares. He

hath made the moon for seasons; the sun

knoweth his going down. Thou

appointedst the darkness, and there was the

night, wherein all the beasts of the forest

will go abroad. Young lions roaring after

their prey, and seeking their food from

God. The sun ariseth, and they are gathered

together, and they lay them down in their

dens. But man shall go forth unto his work,

and to his labor until the evening. How

magnified are Thy works, O Lord! In

wisdom hast Thou made them all; the earth

is filled with Thy creation. So is this great

and spacious sea, therein are things

creeping innumerable, small living

creatures with the great. There go the ships;

there this dragon, whom Thou hast made to

play therein. All things wait on Thee, to

give them their food in due season; when

Thou givest it them, they will gather it.

When Thou openest Thy hand, all things

shall be filled with goodness; when Thou

turnest away Thy face, they shall be

troubled. Thou wilt take their spirit, and

they shall cease; and unto their dust shall

they return. Thou wilt send forth Thy

Spirit, and they shall be created; and Thou

shalt renew the face of the earth. Let the

glory of the Lord be unto the ages; the Lord

will rejoice in His works. Who looketh on

the earth and maketh it tremble, Who

toucheth the mountains and they smoke. I

will sing unto the Lord throughout my life,

I will chant to my God for as long as I have

my being. May my words be sweet unto

Him, and I will rejoice in the Lord. O that

sinners would cease from the earth, and

they that work iniquity, that they should be

no more. Bless the Lord, O my soul.

The sun knoweth his going down, Thou

appointedst the darkness, and there was the

night. How magnified are Thy works, O

Lord! In wisdom hast Thou made them all.

I have lifted up mine eyes to the mountains,

cometh from the Lord, Who hath made

keepeth thee. Behold, He shall not slumber

nor shall He sleep, He that keepeth Israel.

The Lord shall keep thee; the Lord is thy

shelter at thy right hand. The sun shall not

burn thee by day, nor the moon by night.

The Lord shall keep thee from all evil, the

Lord shall guard thy soul. The Lord shall

keep thy coming in and thy going out, from

henceforth and for evermore.

I was glad because of them that said unto

Our feet have stood in thy courts, O

Jerusalem. Jerusalem is builded as a city

which its dwellers share in concord. For

there the tribes went up, the tribes of the

Lord, as a testimony for Israel, to give

thanks to the name of the Lord. For there

are set thrones unto judgment, thrones over

the house of David. Ask now for the things

which are for the peace of Jerusalem, and

for the prosperity of them that love thee.

Let peace be now in thy strength, and

prosperity in thy palaces. For the sake of

Unto Thee have I lifted up mine eyes, unto

our eyes look unto the Lord our God, until

He take pity on us. Have mercy on us, O

Lord, have mercy on us, for greatly are we

filled with abasement. Greatly hath our

soul been filled therewith; let reproach

abasement on the proud.

Had it not been that the Lord was with us,

let Israel now say, had it not been that the

Lord was with us, When men rose up

against us, then had they swallowed us up

alive. When their wrath raged against us,

then had the water overwhelmed us. Our

soul hath passed through a torrent; then had

our soul passed through the water that is

irresistible. Blessed be the Lord Who hath

not given us to be a prey to their teeth. Our

soul like a sparrow was delivered out of the

snare of the hunters. The snare is broken,

and we are delivered. Our help is in the

name of the Lord, Who hath made heaven

and the earth.

Prayer of the first antiphon:

Priest: O Lord, compassionate and merciful,

longsuffering and of great mercy, hearken to our

prayer, and attend to the voice of our supplication.

Work upon us a sign unto good. Guide us in Thu

way, that we may walk in Thy truth. Gladden our

hearts that we may fear Thy holy name. For Thou

art great and workest wonders; Thou alone art

God, and among the gods there is none like unto

Thee, O Lord: powerful in mercy, and good in

might, to help and to comfort and to save all that

hope in Thy holy name.

Reader: They that trust in the Lord shall be

as Mount Zion; he that dwelleth at

Jerusalem, nevermore shall he be shaken.

Mountains are round about her, and the

Lord is round about His people from

henceforth and for evermore. For the Lord

will not permit the rod of sinners to be

upon the lot of the righteous, lest the

righteous stretch forth their hands unto

iniquities. Do good, O Lord, unto them that

are good and unto the upright of heart. But

them that turn aside unto crooked ways

shall the Lord lead away with the workers

of iniquity; peace be upon Israel.

hath done great things among us, and we

are become glad. Turn again, O Lord, our

that sow with tears shall reap with

rejoicing. In their going they went, and

Many a time have they warred against me

The Lord is righteous; He hath cut asunder

the necks of sinners. Let them be put to

Zion. Let them be as the grass upon the

Priest: O Lord, rebuke us not in Thine anger, nor

Healer of our souls. Guide us to the haven of Thy

will. Enlighten the eyes of our hearts unto the

knowledge of Thy truth, and grant unto us that the

Psalm 129

Reader: Out of the depths have I cried unto

Thee, O Lord; O Lord, hear my voice. Let

Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my

supplication. If Thou shouldest mark

iniquities, O Lord, O Lord, who shall

stand? For with Thee there is forgiveness.

For Thy name's sake have I patiently

waited for Thee, O Lord; my soul hath

waited patiently for Thy word, my soul

hath hoped in the Lord. From the morning

watch until night, from the morning watch

let Israel hope in the Lord. For with the

Lord there is mercy, and with Him is

plenteous redemption; and He shall redeem

Israel out of all his iniquities.

O Lord, my heart is not exalted, nor are

in things too great or too marvelous for me.

so wouldst Thou requite my soul. Let Israel

hope in the Lord, from henceforth and for

evermore.

Psalm 131

Remember, O Lord, David and all his

meekness. How he made an oath unto the

Lord, and vowed unto the God of Jacob: I

shall not go into the dwelling of my house,

I shall not ascend upon the bed of my

couch, I shall not give sleep to mine eyes,

nor slumber to mine eyelids, nor rest to my

temples, Until I find a place for the Lord, a

habitation for the God of Jacob. Lo, we

have heard of it in Ephratha, we have found

it in the plains of the wood. Let us go forth

into His tabernacles, let us worship at the

place where His feet have stood. Arise, O

Lord, into Thy rest, Thou and the ark of

Thy holiness. Thy priests shall be clothed

with righteousness, and Thy righteous shall

rejoice. For the sake of David Thy servant,

turn not Thy face away from Thine

anointed one. The Lord hath sworn in truth

unto David, and He will not annul it: Of the

fruit of thy loins will I set upon thy throne.

If thy sons keep My covenant and these

testimonies which I will teach them, Their

sons also shall sit for ever on thy throne.

For the Lord hath elected Zion, He hath

chosen her to be a habitation for Himself.

This is My rest for ever and ever; here will

I dwell, for I have chosen her. Blessing, I

will bless her pursuit; her beggars will I

satisfy with bread. Her priests will I clothe

with salvation, and her saints with rejoicing

shall rejoice. There will I make to spring

forth a horn for David, I have prepared a

lamp for My Christ. His enemies will I

clothe with shame, but upon Him shall My

sanctification flourish.

Psalm 132

Behold now, what is so good or so joyous

as for brethren to dwell together in unity? It

is like the oil of myrrh upon the head,

which runneth down upon the beard, upon

the beard of Aaron, which runneth down to

the fringe of his raiment. It is like the dew

of Hermon, which cometh down upon the

mountains of Zion. For there the Lord

commanded the blessing, life for evermore.

«Let my prayer be set forth»

Be it known that as the reader sings: Let my prayer

be set forth as incense before Thee all the people,

whether in the church or in the altar, stand upon

their knees, praying. And when there is begun The

lifting up of my hands, they stand up. After this

they alternate kneeling and standing, side by side,

at the verses. But the priest, standing in the altar

before the Holy Table, having taken the censer

with incense, censes. And when the reader sings

the last Let my prayer be set forth then the priest,

giving up the censer, kneels upon his knees,

praying.

we beseech Thee Who art rich in mercy, that Thou

wilt show compassion on us sinners, and render us

worthy to receive Thine only-begotten Son and our

God, the King of Glory. For behold, His most pure

Body and His life-creating Blood, entering at this

present hour, are about tobe set forth upon this

mystical altar, invisibly escorted by a great

multitude of the heavenly host. Enable us to

partake of Them in blamelessness; that, the eyes of

our understanding being enlightened thereby, we

Priest, softly: O God of ineffable and invisible

Mysteries, with Whom are hidden treasures of

wisdom and knowledge, Who hast revealed unto

us the service of this ministry, and hast appointed

unto us sinners, through Thy great love towards

mankind, to offer unto Thee gifts and sacrifices for

our own sins and for the errors of Thy people: Do

Thou, the same invisible King, Who dost things

great and inscrutable, glorious and marvelous,

which cannot be numbered, look upon us Thine

unworthy servants who stand at this holy altar as at

Thy cherubic throne, upon which lieth Thine only-

begotten Son and our God, in the dread Mysteries

set forth thereon; and having delivered us and all

Thy faithful people from every impurity, hallow

all our souls and bodies with indelible

sanctification. That partaking with a pure

conscience, with faces unashamed, with hearts

illumined, of these divine consecrated Gifts, and

being quickened through Them, we may be united

unto Thy Christ Himself, our true God, Who hath

said: Whoso eateth My flesh and drinketh My

blood abideth in Me and I in him; that Thy Word,

O Lord, making its abode in us and accompanying

our path, we may become the temple of Thine all-

holy and worshipful Spirit, redeemed from every

wile of the devil wrought by deed or word or

thought; and may obtain the good things promised

us, with all Thy saints who in all ages were well-

pleasing to Thee.

consumed, but sanctifying hose that partake.

nothing. The deacon pours hot water in the

chailice, saying nothing, then stands at a short

distance.

And the priest says: Deacon, draw nigh.

The deacon, having approached, makes a

reverence with piety, asking forgiveness, and

says:

Behold, I draw near to the immortal King and

our God. Impart to me, master, the precious

and holy Body and Blood of our Lord and God

and Saviour Jesus Christ.

And the priest, taking a particle of the Holy

Mysteries, gives it to he deacon, saying:

The sacred deacon, Name, partaketh of the

precious and holy and most pure Body and

Blood of our Lord and God and Saviour Jesus

Christ, for the remission of his sins and for life

everlasting.

The deacon, kissing the hand imparting to him,

withdraws and stands behind the holy table,

and prays with bowed head, as does the priest,

saying: I believe, O Lord, and I confess, etc.

The priest, likewise taking one particle of the

Holy Mysteries, says:

The precious and most holy Body and Blood of

our Lord and God and Saviour Jesus Christ is

imparted to me, name, the priest, for the

remission of his sins and for life everlasting.

And, he prays with bowed head, saying:

I believe, O Lord, and I confess: and Of Thy

mystical supper: and Let not the communion of

Thy Holy Mysteries: in full, to the end.

Then the priest, taking the sponge, wipes his

hand, saying: Glory to Thee, O God thrice.

Taking the cloth, he cleanses his finger and

lips, and says the prayer of thanksgiving:

We give thanks, O God, Saviour of mankind,

for allthe blessing which Thou hast given us,

and for the communion of the holy Body and

Blood of Thy Christ, and we pray Thee, O

Master, Lover of mankind: preserve us beneath

the shelter of Thy wings, and grant us even

until our last breath to partake worthily of Thy

Holy Things, for the enlightenment of soul and

Priest: I believe, O Lord, and I confess that

Thou art truly the Christ, the Son of the

living God, Who didst come into the world

to save sinners, of whom I am chief.

Moreover, I believe that this is truly Thy

most pure Body, and that this is truly Thine

own precious Blood. Wherefore, I pray

Thee: Have mercy on me and forgive me

my transgressions, voluntary and

involuntary, whether in word or in deed, in

knowledge or in ignorance. And vouchsafe

me to partake without condemnation of

Thy most pure Mysteries unto the

remission of sins and life everlasting.

Of Thy mystical supper, O Son of God,

receive me today as a communicant; for I

will not speak of the Mystery to Thine

Judas, but like the thief do I confess Thee:
