Daily Prayer
Antiphon (mantra) repeat quietly:
Keep me as the apple of your eye. Hide me in the shadow of your wings.
Psalm 92
It is good to give thanks to you, O God,
to make music to your holy name,
to proclaim your love at daybreak
and your faithfulness through the night.
With the melody of lyre and harp
I sing of your glory.
I delight in your many wonders.
How glorious are your works,
how varied your designs!
The foolish cannot know this,
and the fool cannot understand.
The wicked spring up like grass;
all who do evil thrive,
only to wither forever.
But you, O God, are eternal.
Your enemies perish;
all doers of evil are scattered.
To me you give your strength;
you anoint me with rich oil.
You reveal the treachery of my enemies
so I may avoid their cunning.
The just will flourish like the palm tree
and grow tall as Lebanon cedars.
Planted in your garden,
they will flourish in your presence.
Still bearing fruit in old age,
still full of life, still green,
your constancy they proclaim.
You, O God, are my rock;
you renew my life.
Pray the Prayer of Jesus (Our Father)
