Saturday Synaxis


Lord God almighty, I pray you for your great mercy, and by the token of the holy cross, guide me to your will, to my soul's need, better than I can myself; and shield me against my foes, seen and unseen; and teach me to do your will, that I may love you inwardly before all things with a clean mind and a clean body. For you are my maker and redeemer, my help, my comfort, my trust, and my hope. Praise and glory be to you now, ever and ever, world without end. Amen.

- King Alfred the Great
