Deliver the kidnapped, the enslaved, and the wrongly imprisoned.
Rescue the missing and the lost.
Deliver the innocent and the suffering.
Provide for the poor and protect the helpless and the weak.
Comfort the solitary, the broken, and abandoned.
Heal the sick and dying.
Expose the murderer and the rapist and the kidnapper and the exploiter.
On all men have mercy, and by their prayers save me a sinner.
And come quickly, O Lord.Grant that I may be made worthy and ready with St. Photius the Great, St. Maximus the Confessor, and St. Mark of Ephesus to suffer for Orthodoxy banishment, imprisonment, and excommunication at the hands of even my brethren.
Let me never be wealthier than I am, that I might not fall into Hell.
Lord, I am a sinful man. Teach me in others and in silence. Speak not directly to me, lest I swell with pride and, forgetting the pit I am in, fall into a deeper one.
Keep me from prelest. Let me not see visions of Angels or of Thee; the words of Saints are enough for me.
Deliver me from pride, the slayer of my soul.
My heart is breaking. Refashion my heart.
