Hear My Prayer
Music: Moses Hogan
Text: Moses Hogan

O [God], please hear my prayer;
In the morning when I rise.
It’s your servant bound for glory.
O dear [God], please hear my prayer.

O [God], please hear my prayer.
Keep me safe within your arms.
It’s your servant bound for glory.
O dear [God], please hear my prayer.

When my work on earth is done,
And you come to take me home.
Just to know I’m bound for glory;
And to hear you say, “Well done!”

Done with sin and sorrow.
Have mercy.
Mercy.
Amen.

 

Evening Prayer
Music: Ola Gjeilo
Text: St. Augustine

Watch, O [God],
with those who wake,
or watch or weep tonight,
and give your angels charge
over those who sleep.

Tend your sick ones,
O [God];
rest your weary ones;
bless your dying ones;
soothe your suffering ones;
pity your afflicted ones;
shield your joyous ones;
and all for your love’s sake.

Amen.
