Vespers — Evening Prayer
Friday, February 27, 2026

℣. O God, ✠ come to my assistance.
℟. O Lord, make haste to help me.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.

── Hymn ──

Maker of man, who from thy throne
Dost order all things, God alone;
By whose decree the teeming earth
To reptile and to beast gave birth:

The mighty forms that fill the land,
Instinct with life at thy command,
Are given subdued to humankind 
For service in their rank assigned.

From all thy servants drive away 
Whate’er of thought impure to-day 
Hath been with open action blent, 
Or mingled with the heart’s intent.

In heaven thine endless joys bestow,
And grant thy gifts of grace below;
From chains of strife our souls release,
Bind fast the gentle bands of peace.

Grant this, O Father, ever One
With Christ, thy sole-begotten Son,
Whom, with the Spirit we adore, 
One God, both now and evermore.
Amen.

── Psalms ──
