Psalter Cycle Saved!

Reading Cycle Saved!

Reading Length Saved!

Reading Audio Saved!

Canticle Rotation Saved!

Advanced Settings

Visual Theme Saved!

Use light mode or dark mode, or default to your computer's setting for light or dark mode

Substitute Sunday/Holy Day (Eucharistic) Lectionary Saved!

On Sundays and major holy days, do you want to use the standard Daily Office readings or substitute the 3-year Sunday/Holy Day cycle? When the Daily Office is used for the principal service of a church, the prayer book instructs you to replace the Daily Office readings with the three year cycle of Sunday and Holy Day readings. This is generally done only in churches and not when using the Daily Office as a personal devotion at home.

Confession Intro Length Saved!

Use either the short or long exhortation before the confession.

Absolution Style Saved!

After the confession, read an absolution suitable for a priest or a prayer suitable for a deacon or lay person.

Morning Prayer Invitatory Saved!

Open with the Venite (Psalm 95) always (traditional), have a special celebratory invitatory on Sundays and feasts (Pascha Nostrum during Eastertide or Jubilate/Psalm 100 otherwise), or rotate between the normal and celebratory invitatory each day. Regardless of which setting you choose, the Pascha Nostrum is always used during the first week of Easter, and the invitatory will never be the same as one of the day's appointed psalms.

Reading Headings Saved!

Show or hide headings from the English Standard Version of the Bible in scripture readings

Language Style for Prayers Saved!

Traditional and contemporary language options are available for the Kyrie (Lord have mercy) and the Lord's Prayer

National Holiday Collects Saved!

Show country-specific commemorations for the United States, Canada, or both.

Evening Prayer Suffrages Saved!

Choose which set of short prayers to be used each evening

Additional Collects Saved!

Use a different collect for each day of the week, or use the same two collects (from the classic prayer books) each day.

Prayers in the Time of An Election Saved!

Include election related collects until the U.S. General election. (Automatically disabled if only Canadian feasts are selected).

Prayers in the Time of Pandemic Saved!

Include a rotating set of collects for the duration of this pandemic

Great Litany at Morning Prayer Saved!

Include the Great Litany after the collects at Morning Prayer

Great Litany at Evening Prayer Saved!

Include the Great Litany after the collects at Evening Prayer

General Thanksgiving Saved!

Pray the General Thanksgiving at the end of Morning and Evening Prayer

Prayer of St. John Chrysostom Saved!

Pray the Prayer of St. John Chrysostom at the end of Morning and Evening Prayer. This prayer is suitable when praying in a group.

The Grace Saved!

Rotate each day through the three provided conclusions, or always use the same one from the classic prayer books.

Advent "O" Antiphons Saved!

The traditional "O" Antiphons are used before and after the first canticle in Evening Prayer during the last eight days of Advent. You can use literal translations of the original Latin, or the familiar paraphrases used in the hymn "O Come, O Come Emmanuel"

Psalm 38

Domine, ne in furore

1 Rebuke me not, O Lord, in your anger,*

neither chasten me in your weighty displeasure.

2 For your arrows stick fast in me,*

and your hand presses me hard.

3 There is no health in my flesh, because of your displeasure;*

neither is there any rest in my bones, by reason of my sin.

4 For my iniquities have gone over my head*

and are like a heavy burden, too much for me to bear.

5 My wounds stink and fester,*

by reason of my foolishness.

6 I am brought into such great trouble and misery*

that I go about mourning all the day long.

7 For my loins are filled with burning,*

and there is no wholeness in my body.

8 I am feeble and sorely smitten;*

I have roared because of the tumult of my heart.

9 Lord, you know all my desire,*

and my groaning is not hidden from you.

10 My heart is panting, my strength has failed me,*

and the sight of my eyes is gone from me.

11 My friends and my neighbors turn away from my trouble,*

and my kinsmen stand afar off.

12 Those also who seek after my life lay snares for me,*

and those who go about to do me evil talk of wickedness and imagine deceit all the day long.

13 As for me, I am like the deaf who do not hear,*

and as one who is mute, who does not open his mouth.

14 I have become like a man who hears not,*

and in whose mouth are no reproofs.

15 For in you, O Lord, have I put my trust;*

you shall answer for me, O Lord my God.

16 I have said, "Let not my enemies triumph over me,"*

for when my foot slipped, they rejoiced greatly over me.

17 Truly, I am about to fall,*

and my pain is ever with me.

18 For I will confess my wickedness,*

and be sorry for my sin.

19 But my enemies live, and are mighty,*

and those who hate me wrongfully are many in number.

20 Those also who repay evil for good are against me,*

because I follow that which is good.

21 Forsake me not, O Lord my God;*

O be not far from me.

22 Make haste to help me,*

O Lord God of my salvation.
