Morning prayers
First Light Thanksgiving
With the sunrise, Orthodox Christians offer gratitude for another day of repentance, asking that the noonday heat of temptation not scorch their hearts.

O Christ, the true Light, Who enlightens and sanctifies every person coming into the world, let the light of Your countenance be signed upon us.
Guide my thoughts, desires, and all my senses this day. Strengthen my hands to labor in righteousness and keep my tongue from idle speech.
Let the morning star of Your grace scatter the shadows of sin, that walking in Your commandments I may glorify You, the Father, and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
