Praying with the Augustinians of the Immaculate Heart of Mary during LentDuring the season of Lent, our tradition of prayer changes slightly as influenced by our Byzantine roots, and we add the Prayer of St. Ephraim to the very end of Vespers.
| The Great Lenten Prayer of St. Ephraim
O Lord and Master of my life, take from me the spirit of sloth, despondency, lust for power and idle talk. But grant unto me, Thy servant, a spirit of chastity, humility, patience and love. Yea, O Lord and King, grant me to see mine own faults and not to judge my brothers and sisters. For blessed art Thou unto ages of ages. Amen. O God, cleanse Thou me a sinner (12 times) |
