Book of Needs of the Holy Orthodox Church

by Russkaia pravoslavnaia tserkov

Through the prayers of glorious apostles and martyrs, and of all thy Saints, bestow thy mercies upon thy people.

Through the prayers of the glorious unmercenary ones, O God-bearing one, preserve thy servants, as being the protection and stablishing of the world.

Glory.

Let us glorify the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost, saying, O Holy Trinity, save our souls.

Both now.

Thou that unspeakably to the uttermost didst conceive and bring forth thy Creator, save, O Virgin, them that magnify thee.

Then,

Open unto us the gates of mercy, O blessed God-bearing one, that we perish not who put our trust in thee, but through thee may we be delivered from dangers; for thou art the salvation of the christian race.

Then, Let us pray to the Lord.

Priest. For holy art thou, O our God....
