O Lord, let my soul rise up to meet you
as the day rises to meet the sun.

Praise to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever.

Come, let us bow down and bend the knee : let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.

I bind unto myself today the strong name of the Trinity.

Psalm 146:4-9
Happy are they who have the God of Jacob for their help! : whose hope is in the Lord their God;
who made heaven and earth, the seas, and all that is in them : who keeps his promise for ever;
who gives justice to those who are oppressed : and food to those who hunger.
The Lord sets the prisoners free; the Lord opens the eyes of the blind : the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down;
the Lord loves the righteous; the Lord cares for the stranger : he sustains the orphan and widow, but frustrates the way fo the wicked.
The Lord shall reign for ever : your God, O Zion, throughout all generations. Hallelujah!

I bind unto myself today the strong name of the Trinity.
