Blessed be the Lord God of our fathers: let praise and glory be given to him for ever.
I will praise thee, O my God, while I live; I will glorify thy holy name while 1 have my being. O magnify the Lord with me, all ye holy angels; praise him, all ye saints.
I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall be ever in my mouth.
Give glory to the Lord, for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever.
Blessed be the name of the Lord, from henceforth, now, and for ever.
From the rising of the sun, unto the going down of the same, the name of the Lord is worthy of praise. Glory, etc.
PRAYER TO RECOMMEND OUR AGONY TO GOD.
MY most sweet Saviour! I must soon combat with hell and death. Thou knowest the power and subtlety of my enemies. If I be left alone in this combat, I shall be lost. Have compassion, dear Lord, on my soul when it shall be exposed to so great dangers. I have no one but thee, O my Jesus, no other than thyself to afford me the aid I shall stand in need of in my last moments. If thou come not to my assistance, I shall not be able to resist the power of my adversaries. Be thou my protection, and the place of my refuge. The enemies I shall have to combat are thy enemies, and it is thy image that they would destroy. Suffer them not to boast that in overcoming me, they have prevailed against thee. When near to thee I am strong, but when left to myself I am nothing but weakness. Have mercy on me, O Lord, and forsake me not; do not depart from me. Amen.
