O Lord, the Almighty God,
Who acceptest the thrice-holy hymn from Thy heavenly hosts:
accept this song of the night even from me, Thine unworthy servant.
Grant that at every year and hour of my life
I might glorify Thee, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit,
now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
