Lord, receive our supplication for this house, family, and country.  Protect the innocent, restrain the greedy and the treacherous,lead us out of our tribulation into a quiet land.

Look down upon us and our absent dear ones.  Help us and them, prolong our days in peace and honor.  Give us health, food, bright weather, and light hearts.  In what we meditate of evil, frustrate our will; in what of good, further our endeavors.  Cause injuries to be forgotten and benefits to be remembered.

Let us lie down without fear and awake and arise with exultation.  For His sake, in whose words we now conclude.
