Evening Prayer

O Thank You, dear God, almighty and kind Father, that You have brought me through another day, graciously keeping me safe from harm both of body and soul.

I confess and repent of every sin that I have this day committed in my heart by thoughts, speech or acts -- my broken resolutions, my untrue service, my wayward steps, my vain musings -- all the ways in which I have fallen short of Your glory; and I thank You for blotting them all out in Your faithfulness and justice, according to the promise of redemption through the precious blood of Your Son, with Whom You are well pleased.

Protect me this night under Your almighty wings, against the evil one, so that I may abide under the protection of Your goodness to rest and sleep securely, to the praise of the glory of Your grace.

In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
