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 sing to the Lord : let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.

You, O Lord, are my lamp : my God, you make my darkness bright.

Psalm 18:21-25
The Lord rewarded me because of my righteous dealing : because my hands were clean he rewarded me;
for I have kept the ways of the Lord : and have not offended against my God;
for all his judgments are before my eyes : and his decrees I have not put away from me;
for I have been blameless with him : and have kept myself from iniquity;
therefore the Lord rewarded me according to my righteous dealing : because of the cleanness of my hands in his sight.

You, O Lord, are my lamp : my God, you make my darkness bright.

Joel 1:15-20
Revelation 9:1-12
