Prayers to End the Day

You may want to write these prayers down somewhere and have them by your bedside. Pick one to either memorize or to at least pray each evening, or all of them, or randomly.

Or, even better, you can purchase The Divine Hours: Pocket Edition. It's a collection of daily prayers for morning, noon, evening and night. It'll help you pray the Scriptures and focus on God throughout the days and weeks.

May the Lord Almighty grant me and those I love a peaceful night and a perfect end. Amen.

Almighty God, my heavenly Father, I have sinned against you, through my own fault in thought, and word, and deed, in what I have done and what I have left undone. For the sake of your Son our Lord Jesus Christ, forgive me all my offenses; and grant that I may serve you in newness of life, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying, soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake, Amen.

Lord, you now have set your servant free to go in peace as you have promised; for these eyes of mine have seen the Savior, whom you have prepared for all the world to see: a Light to enlighten the nations, and the glory of your people Israel. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever more shall be. Amen.
