  1. NIGHT PRAYER THURSDAY Lead, kindly Light, amid th'encircling gloom, lead thou me on!The night is dark, and I am far from home; lead thou me on!Keep thou my feet; I do not ask to seethe distant scene; one step enough for me. I loved to choose and see my path; but now lead thou me on!I loved the garish day, and, spite of fears,pride ruled my will: remember not past years!So long thy power hath blessed me, sure it stillwill lead me on.O'er moor and fen, o'er crag and torrent, till the night is gone,And with the morn those angel faces smile, which I have loved long since, and lost awhile! By John Henry Newman, 1833 O God, come to my aid.O Lord, make haste to help me.Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.Amen. Alleluia. Examination of conscience Lord, we have sinned against you:Lord, have mercy.Lord, have mercy. Lord, show us your mercy and love.And grant us your salvation.  May almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us our sins, and bring us to everlasting life. Amen.

  2. I keep the Lord ever in my sight: since he is at my right hand, I shall stand firm. And so my heart rejoices,my soul is glad; even my body shall rest in safety. For you will not leave my soul among the dead, nor let your beloved know decay. You will show me the path of life, the fullness of joy in your presence, at your right hand happiness for ever. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Antiphon: My body shall rest in safety. Antiphon: My body shall rest in safety. Psalm 15(16) Preserve me, God, I take refuge in you. I say to the Lord: “You are my God. My happiness lies in you alone.” He has put into my heart a marvellous love for the faithful ones who dwell in his land. Those who choose other gods increase their sorrows. Never will I offer their offerings of blood. Never will I take their name upon my lips. O Lord, it is you yourself who are my portion and cup; it is you yourself who are my prize. The lot marked out for me is my delight: welcome indeed the heritage that falls to me!I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel, who even at night directs my heart.

  3. Scripture Reading 1Thessalonians 5:23 May the God who gives us peace make you completely his, and keep your whole being, spirit, soul and body, free from all fault, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Short Responsory Into your hands, Lord, I commend my spirit.- Into your hands, Lord, I commend my spirit.You have redeemed us, Lord, God of faithfulness.- Into your hands, Lord, I commend my spirit.Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.- Into your hands, Lord, I commend my spirit.

  4. Canticle Nunc Dimittis Ant. Save us, Lord, while we are awake; protect us while we sleep; that we may keep watch with Christ and rest with him in peace. Now, Master, you let your servant go in peace. You have fulfilled your promise.My own eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all peoples.A light to bring the Gentiles from darkness; the glory of your people Israel.Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.Amen. Ant. Save us, Lord, while we are awake; protect us while we sleep; that we may keep watch with Christ and rest with him in peace.

  5. Concluding Prayer Lord our God, restore us again by the repose of sleep after the fatigue of our daily work: so that, continually renewed by your help, we may serve you in body and soul. Through Christ our Lord. Amen. May the almighty Lord grant us a quiet night and a perfect end. A M E N

  6. Alma Redemptoris Mater, quae pervia caeli porta manes, et stella maris, succurre cadenti, Surgere qui curat, populo: tu quae genuisti, Natura mirante, tuum sanctum Genitorem Virgo prius ac posterius, Gabrielis ab ore sumens illud Ave, peccatorum miserere.
