Vouchsafe, O Lord
Vouchsafe, O Lord are the first words of a prayer from the Vespers service of the Eastern Orthodox Church.[1] The full text is:
Vouchsafe, O Lord, to keep us this night without sin.
Blessed are You, O Lord, the God of our fathers,
and praised and glorified is Your Name for ever. Amen.
Let Your mercy be upon us, O Lord,
even as we have set our hope on You.
Blessed are You, O Lord; teach me Your statutes.
Blessed are You, O Master; make me to understand Your commandments.
Blessed are You, O Holy One; enlighten me with Your precepts.
Your mercy endures forever, O Lord! Do not despise the works of Your hands!
To You belongs worship, to You belongs praise, to You
belongs glory: to the Father and to the Son and to the
Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen[2]
