we adore you at all times,

Psalm of the day
Antiphon:
O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell,
the tenting place of your glory.

Psalm 26
Do me justice, O Lord! for I have walked in integrity,
and in the Lord I trust without wavering.

Search me, O Lord, and try me;
test my soul and my heart.

For your kindness is before my eyes,
and I walk in your truth.

I stay not with worthless men,
nor do I consort with hypocrites.

I hate the assembly of evildoers,
and with the wicked I will not stay.

I wash my hands in innocence,
and I go around your altar, O Lord.

Giving voice to my thanks,
and recounting all your wondrous deeds.

O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell,
the tenting-place of your glory.

Gather not my soul with those of sinners,
nor with men of blood my life.

On their hands are crimes,
and their right hands are full of bribes.

But I walk in integrity;
redeem me, and have pity on me.

My foot stands on level ground;
in the assemblies I will bless the Lord.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and forever. Amen.

Antiphon:
O Lord, I love the house in which you dwell,
the tenting place of your glory.

SECOND PRAYER
Lord, have mercy on us and save us.
Glory to you, Light of truth and Star of glory.
The radiance of your splendor dispels darkness from our minds and hearts.
O Lord,
grant that in praising you, we may be enlightened,
find our joy in you,
and recognize you as the giver of that light which dispels
darkness and creates morning.
O Father, Son and Holy Spirit, whom all creatures must adore, to you be glory, forever.
Amen.

NUHRO (LIGHT OF HYMN)
The Light of the just and joy of the upright is Christ Jesus our Lord.
Begotten of the Father, he manifested himself to us.
He came to rescue us from darkness and to fill us with the radiance of his light.

Day is dawning upon us; the power of darkness is fading away, From the true Light there arises for us the light which illumines our darkened eyes.

His glory shines upon the world and enlightens the very depths of the abyss.
Death is annihilated, night has vanished, and the gates of Sheol are broken.
Creatures lying in darkness from ancient times are clothed in light.
The dead arise from the dust and sing because they have a Savior.

He brings salvation and grants us life.
He ascends to his Father on high.
He will return in glorious splendor and shed his light on those gazing upon him.

Our King comes in majestic glory.
Let us light our lamps and go forth to meet him.
Let us find our joy in him, for he has found joy in us.
He will indeed rejoice us with his marvelous light.

Let us glorify the majesty of the Son and give thanks to
the almighty Father, who,
in an outpouring of love, sent him to us, to fill us with hope and salvation.

When he manifests himself, the saints awaiting him in
weariness and sorrow,
will go forth to meet him with lighted lamps.

The angels and guardians of heaven will rejoice in the glory of the just and upright people of earth;
together, crowned with victory, they will sing hymns and psalms.

Stand up then and be ready!
Give thanks to our King and Savior, who will come in great glory to gladden us with his marvelous light in his kingdom.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, now and forever. Amen.
Alleluia.

THIRD PRAYER
Lord, have mercy on us and save us.
O Lord,
guard our thoughts from the errors of this troubled world
and awaken spiritual life within us,
through meditation on your life-giving commandments.
Thus, with enlightened thoughts, the reflections of your grace, our hearts will be purified of vain endeavors,
and we shall glorify you in the holy temple of your majesty,
now and forever.
Amen.

the princes and all the judges of the earth,

Young men too, and maidens,
old men and boys,

Praise the name of the Lord,

and he adorns the lowly with victory.

Let the faithful exult in glory;
let them sing joy upon their couches;

Let the high praises of God be in their throats.

Alleluia.

READINGS
MAZMOORO
Lord of light, your light has shone upon your creatures, and
dispelled the deadly darkness of unbelief.
Lord of light, remember your Church which you have upheld
and dispel from her the deadly darkness of unbelief.
O Jesus, your flock implores you amid their sufferings and tears; in your kindness, deliver them from the evils that surround
them.
SCRIPTURE READINGS
A Reading from the Prophet of Habakkuk
Habakkuk 2-6, 18-19
O LORD, I have heard your renown, and feared, O LORD, your work. In the course of the years revive it, in the course of the years make it known; in your wrath remember compassion!

God comes from Teman, the Holy One from Mount Paran. Covered are the heavens with his glory, and with his praise the earth is filled. His splendor spreads like the light; rays shine forth from beside him, where his power is concealed. Before him goes pestilence, and the plague follows in his steps. He pauses to survey the earth; his look makes the nations tremble. The eternal mountains are shattered, the age-old hills bow low along his ancient ways. Yet will I rejoice in the LORD and exult in my saving God. GOD, my Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet swift as those of hinds and enables me to go upon the heights.
