Saturday Synaxis


Arise, O Lord, and shine
In all Thy saving might,
And prosper each design
To spread Thy glorious light:
Let healing streams of mercy flow,
That all the earth Thy truth may know.
Bring distant nations near,
To sing Thy glorious praise;
Let every people hear
And learn Thy holy ways:
Reign, mighty God! Assert Thy cause,
And govern by Thy righteous laws.
 
 
- from #603 in the Augustine Hymn Book, 19th century
