Morning Prayer
I give thanks unto You, Adonai,
that, in mercy,
You have restored my soul within me.
Endless is Your compassion;
great is Your faithfulness.
I thank You, Adonai,
for the rest You have given me through the night
and for the breath that renews my body and spirit.
Amen.

God ever reigns on high.
O come, let us worship.
Psalm 107:23-32
- Those who go down to the sea in ships:
and ply their trade on great waters, - they have seen your works O Lord:
and the wonders you do in the deep. - At your command the stormy wind arose:
and lifted up the waves. - They were carried up to the sky,
and down again to the depths:
their courage melted away in their peril. - They reeled to and fro, and staggered as if drunken:
their seafaring skill was utterly without avail. - Then they cried to you O Lord in their trouble:
and you rescued them from their distress. - You made the storm be still:
and the roaring waves were hushed. - Then they were glad because it was calm:
and so you brought them to the harbour
where they had longed to be. - Let them thank you O Lord for your steadfast love:
for the wonders that you do for us. - Let them extol you in the assembly of the people:
and praise you in the council of elders.
