Have mercy on me, my only Savior, since Thou art merciful and compa.s.sionate, and join me to the choir of the Just.
Holy Angel of the Lord, my Guardian, pray to G.o.d for me, a sinner!
Grant that I may always think and do what is good and useful, O Angel of the Lord, and show me to be strong and spotless in weakness.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
Since you are bold before the Heavenly King, pray to Him with all the bodiless powers, that He may have mercy on me, a wretch.
Now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
You have great boldness before the One Who took flesh from you, O Virgin.
Remove me from my fetters and grant me freedom and salvation through your prayers.

Create in me a clean heart, O G.o.d, and put a new and right spirit within me.

O Lover of mankind, may Thy most pure Body and Divine Blood be for the remission of my sins, the communion of the Holy Spirit, life everlasting, and estrangement from pa.s.sions and sorrows.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
Most holy Table of the Heavenly Bread which mercifully came down from on high, giving new life to the world; grant that I, who am unworthy, may now taste of Him in fear and live!

Because of human sins, Thou didst will to be slaughtered like a lamb, Most Merciful One Who wast incarnate for us. I pray, therefore: cleanse my sins as well.
