Prayer for Calm
Eternal God, … You who hear the sighs of those who are bound, and who attend
to the prayers of the humble, and receive their supplications, my God and my
king, my life and my refuge, my hope and my confidence, Jesus Christ, O God of
all, holiness that dwells in the souls of the saints, consolation for the
afflicted and pardon for sinners. You who know all things before they happen,
make available the protective strength of your powerful presence and save me
from the terror of the night and evil demons, so that always embracing your
awe-provoking memory and your holy name on the expressions of my soul and with
the intentions of my life, I might be saved and protected along with those who
call to you with all their hearts.
[St. Narékatzi Prayer 94]
