The Prayer of Every Hour Have mercy on us O God, and have mercy on us. Thou who, at all times, and at every hour, in Heaven and on earth art worshipped and glorified. O Christ, our God, who art long-suffering, plenteous in mercy and compassion, who loves the just and has mercy on sinners, of whom I am first. Who does not wish the death of sinner, but to repent and to live. Who calls all to salvation through the promise of good things to come. Receive, O Lord, our prayers at this hour and at every hour; facilitate our present lives and direct us to act according to Thy commandments. Sanctify our souls, purify our bodies, set aright our reasoning, cleanse our thoughts, heal our sickness, remit our sins, and deliver us from all wrath and distress. Surround us with Thy holy angels; that guided and guarded by their host we may attain the unity of faith and the comprehension of Thy imperceptible and infinate glory, for blessed art Thou unto the ages of ages. Amen.
