Prayer of St Macarius the Great (evening)

Eternal God, and King of all creation, who hast vouchsafed to me to come even unto this hour, forgive me the sins which I have committed this day in deed, word, and thought; and cleanse, O Lord, my humble soul of all defilement of flesh and spirit. And grant me, O Lord, to pass this night in peace, that rising from my lowly bed I may praise Thy holy Name throughout all the days of my life, and may overcome the enemies, both fleshly and bodiless, that contend against me. Deliver me, O Lord, from vain thoughts that defile me, and from evil desires. For Thine is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory, of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen.
