“God watches over you.” Psalm 121 (antiphon: v. 8)
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.
121
I lift up my eyes to the hills.
From where does my help come?
2
My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
3
He will not let your foot be moved;
he who keeps you will not slumber.
4
Behold, he who keeps Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.
5
The Lord is your keeper;
the Lord is your shade on your right hand.
6
The sun shall not strike you by day,
nor the moon by night.
7
The Lord will keep you from all evil;
he will keep your life.
8
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.
Glory be 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.
The Lord will keep
your going out and your coming in
from this time forth and forevermore.
COLLECT OF THE DAY
O God, You see that of ourselves we have no strength. By Your mighty power defend us from all adversities that may happen to the body and from all evil thoughts that may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen
