Irmos: Guide us in the light of Thy commandments, O Lord, the Giver of
Light and Creator of the Universe. For we know no other God than
Thee.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within
me.
As Thou didst foretell, O Christ, so may it be with Thine inadequate
servant, and abide in me according to Thy promise: for behold, I eat Thy
Flesh and drink Thy Blood.
Cast me not away from Thy presence, and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
May the burning coal of Thy Body, O God and Word of God, be a light in my
darkness, and may Thy Blood be the cleansing of my defiled soul.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever
and unto ages of ages. Amen.
O Mary, Mother of God, precious Tabernacle of the divine Fragrance: make
me a chosen vessel, by your prayers, that I may partake of the
consecrated elements of your Son.
