- Almighty God, our Lord, according to Thine ordinance, darkness and night are now falling, and we retire to rest and sleep. We call upon Thee and beseech Thee awaken me and grant me the light by which I may walk and dwell safely with Thee in yonder eternity. Hear my prayer and answer me, O Thou Who slumberest not nor sleepest; through Jesus Christ. Amen.
