── Hymn ──

O God of truth, O Lord of might,
Who orderest time and change aright,
Who send’st the early morning ray,
And light’st the glow of perfect day:
Extinguish thou each sinful fire,
And banish every ill desire;
And while thou keep’st the body whole,
Shed forth thy peace upon the soul.
Almighty Father, hear our cry,
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord most High,
Who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
Doth live and reign eternally.
Amen.

── Psalms ──

Ant. In God I have put my trust * I will not fear what flesh can do against me.

Psalm 55

Have mercy on me, O God, for man hath trodden me under foot; * all the day long he hath afflicted me fighting against me.
My enemies have trodden on me all the day long; * for they are many that make war against me.
From the height of the day I shall fear: * but I will trust in thee.
In God I will praise my words, in God I have put my trust: * I will not fear what flesh can do against me.
All the day long they detested my words: * all their thoughts were against me unto evil.
They will dwell and hide themselves: * they will watch my heel.
As they have waited for my soul, for nothing shalt thou save them: * in thy anger thou shalt break the people in pieces.
O God, I have declared to thee my life: * thou hast set my tears in thy sight,
As also in thy promise. * Then shall my enemies be turned back.
In what day soever I shall call upon thee, * behold I know thou art my God.
In God will I praise the word, in the Lord will I praise his speech. * In God have I hoped, I will not fear what man can do to me.
In me, O God, are vows to thee, * which I will pay, praises to thee:
Because thou hast delivered my soul from death, my feet from falling: * that I may please in the sight of God, in the light of the living.

Psalm 56

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy on me: * for my soul trusteth in thee.
And in the shadow of thy wings will I hope, * until iniquity pass away.
I will cry to God the most High; * to God who hath done good to me.
He hath sent from heaven and delivered me: * he hath made them a reproach that trod upon me.
God hath sent his mercy and his truth, * and he hath delivered my soul from the midst of the young lions. I slept troubled.
The sons of men, whose teeth are weapons and arrows, * and their tongue a sharp sword.
Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens, * and thy glory above all the earth.
