Supplication of Mar Ephraim
O Lord and Master of my life,
Keep me from sloth and prying,
From hollow pride and empty chatter -
From hollow pride and empty chatter.
Grant unto me instead the grace
Of purity and humility,
Of patience and neighborly love -
Of patience and neighborly love.
O Lord and King and Giver of grace,
Keep me aware of my own sin
So I shall not think ill of my neighbor.
And blessed be Thou forever -
And blessed be Thou forever.
Dismissal of Morning Prayer
IT IS GOOD to give Thee thanks in the morning and to praise Thy Name, O
Thou Most High. In the morning shalt Thou hear my voice, O Lord, that Thou
wilt have compassion on Thy people and forgive their sin. Let Thy right
hand rest upon us and heal our weakness, for Thy Name endureth unto the
Aeon of aeons.
Amen.
