Evening Prayers
O God, come to my assistance.
O Lord, make haste to help me.
Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the hills--
from where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord,
who make the heaven and earth.
The Lord will not let your foot be moved,
the Lord who keeps you will not slumber.
The One who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your shade
on your right hand.
The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.
The Lord will keep you from all evil,
and will keep your life.
The Lord will keep
your going out and your comming in
from this time forth and for evermore.
The Song Of Mary
My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
who has looked with favor on me,
a lowly serving maid.
From this day all generations
will call me blessed.
The Mighty One has done great things for me:
holy the name of the Lord,
whos mercy is on the God-fearing
from generation to generation.
The arm of the Lord is filled with strength,
scattering the proudhearted.
God cast the mighty from their thrones,
lifting up the lowely.
God filled the hingry with good things,
sending the rich away empty.
God has come to the help of Israel,
the Lord's servant,
remembering mercy,
the mercy promised to our forefathers,
to Abraham and his children forever.
Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy Lord,
God of power and might!
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest!
Blessed is he who comes
in the name of the Lord!
Hosanna in the highest!
