The Lord protect and keep you through the night,

the Lord be there to greet you when you rise

   to bless the Lord, bless, the Lord,

   in all things as they come and go - bless the Lord!

 

Amen.

Psalm 33: In the silent hours of night

    sung by The Cathedral Singers; Richard Proulx, director 

 

 

In the silent hours of night bless the Lord.

O come bless the Lord, all you who serve the Lord,
who stand in the house of the Lord,
in the courts of the house of our God.

Lift up your hands to the holy place
and bless the Lord through the night.

May the Lord bless you from Zion,
he who made both heaven and earth.

Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now and will be forever. 
Amen.
