Suggested prayers

A morning prayer
O God, the author of peace and lover of concord,
to know you is eternal life and to serve you is perfect freedom;
defend us in all assaults of our enemies,
that we, surely trusting in your protection,
may not fear the power of any adversaries;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

An evening prayer
Lighten our darkness, O Lord, we pray
and in your great mercy defend us
from all perils and dangers of this night;
for the love of your sonly Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
