Rescue us from our enemies, O God; protect us from those who rise up against Your beloved children Those who are the instruments of the wicked one, the accuser of the brethren the liar of all liars, the thief of all thieves and the murderer of all murderers, the wicked boast with their mouths, and taunts are on their lips; For who, they say, will hear us? But you, O LORD, you laugh at them; you laugh all the ungodly to scorn. Our eyes are fixed on you, O my Strength; for you, O God, are our stronghold. Let everyone know that God rules in Your holy nation and to the ends of the earth. . O Lord, save thy people and bless thine heritage; Govern them and lift them up for ever. Day by day we magnify thee; And we worship thy name ever, world without end. Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this day without sin; O Lord, have mercy upon us, Christ have mercy upon us. O Lord, let thy mercy be upon us; As our trust is in thee. O Lord, in thee have we trusted; Let us never be confounded. Almighty and everlasting God, give unto us the increase of faith, hope, and charity; and, that we may obtain that which thou dost promise, make us to love that which thou dost command; God, the King eternal, who dividest the day from the night and turnest the shadow of death into the morning: Drive far from us all wrong desires, incline our hearts to keep thy law, and guide our feet into the way of peace; that, having done thy will with cheerfulness while it was day, we may, when night cometh, rejoice to give thee thanks for the glory of Him, whose power working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine: Glory be to Him Who sits on the throne and unto the Lamb, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, and to the Governor of His holy nation, God the Holy Spirit, from generation to generation in the Church, for He reigns the universe for ever and ever, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever will be His world without end. Amen and Amen
