Christ, the fair glory of the holy angels, Thou Who hast made us, Thou Who o???er us rulest, Grant of Thy mercy unto us Thy servants Steps up to Heaven. Send Thy archangel, Michael, to our succor; Peacemaker bless??d, may he banish from us Striving and hatred, so that for the peaceful All things may prosper. Send Thy archangel, Gabriel, the mighty; Herald of Heaven, may he from us mortals Spurn the old serpent, watching o???er the temples Where Thou art worshipped. Send thy archangel, Raphael, the restorer Of the misguided ways of men who wander, Who at Thy bidding strengthens soul and body With Thine anointing. Father almighty, Son and Holy Spirit, God ever bless??d, be Thou our Preserver; Thine is the glory which the angels worship, Veiling their faces.
