Catholic Evening Prayers
For all the blessings of light;
Protect us, O king of kings, we pray,
Beneath Your own almighty wings.
O Lord, forgive us through Christ your Son,
Whatever wrong we have done this day;
Give your peace to the world, O Lord,
That we might live in one accord.
Enlighten us, O blessed light,
And give us rest for the whole night.
O give us strength, that for your sake,
We all may serve You when we wake.
O Almighty and Eternal Lord! I prostrate at the feet of Your Holy Majesty, I adore you with all possible reverence. I believe in what You have revealed to Your Holy Church, and I certainly hold it. I look forward to your eternal goodness and kindness, and I love you with all my heart.

Father: Almighty and merciful God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, bless and sustain us. Family: Amen.From the words of Pope Pius XII On the Sacred Liturgy
I have fallen many times today, dear mother; Many graces neglected since last I knelt here. Wilt thou not in pity, my own Mother mild, Ask Jesus to pardon the sins of thy child? I am going to rest, for the day’s work is done,
Its hours and moments have passed one by one. And the God who would judge me counted them all; He has counted every grace, he has counted every fall.
In his book they are written against the last day 0 Mother, ask Jesus to wash them away; One drop of His blood for which sinners were spilt is enough to cleanse the whole world from its guilt. And if it is morning, I should draw my last breath;
If the sleep I take is a long sleep of death,
Stay with me, dear mother, for Jesus’ dear sake
When my soul on Eternity’s shore shall awake.
Amen.
