Lighten my eyes, O Christ God

Orthodox

Lighten my eyes, O Christ God, lest I sleep in death, and lest my enemy say: I have prevailed over him. (Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.) Be my soul's Defender, O God, for I step over many snares. Deliver me from them and save me, O Good One, in Thy love for men. (Now and ever, and to the ages of ages. Amen.) Let us not silently hymn the most glorious Mother of God, holiest of holy Angels, but confess her with heart and mouth to be the Mother of God, for she truly bore God incarnate for us, and prays without ceasing for our souls. Amen.
