Having risen from sleep, I run to Thee, O Master, for Thou lovest mankind,
and I rush to accomplish Thy work.
Help me, I pray Thee, at all times and in all things.
Deliver me from every evil thing of this world and from works of the devil.
Save me, and lead me into Thine eternal Kingdom.
Thou art my Maker, the Provider and Giver of everything good.
All my hope is in Thee and I glorify Thee,
now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
