Prayer II of St. Macarius the Great

Having risen from sleep, I offer Thee, O Savior, the midnight song. Falling down I cry to Thee: let me not fall asleep in the death of sin. Be gracious to me, O Thou Who wast willingly crucified. Raise me quickly as I lie in laziness, and save me as I stand in prayer. After the night's sleep, O Christ God, shine a sinless day on me and save me.
