Night Prayer

Prayer By St. Alphonsus Liguori

Jesus Christ, my God, I adore Thee and thank Thee for all the graces bestowed on me this day. I offer Thee my sleep and all the moments of this night, and I beg Thee to keep me from sin.

Therefore, I place myself at Thy most sacred side and under the protecting mantle of our Lady, my Mother. May the holy angels help me and keep me in peace, and may Thy blessing be upon me.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I give you my heart and my soul.

Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, assist me in my last agony.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph, may I breathe forth my soul in peace in your loving arms.

Letting not the sun set on my wrath, may I now close my eyes in peace with my God and my fellow men.

Into Thy hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit.

Latin Iesu Christe, Deus meus, adoro te et gratias ago tibi pro omnibus gratiis mihi hac die concessis. Tibi offero somnum meum et omnia momenta huius noctis, et rogo te ut me a peccato custodias.

Ideo me colloco ad sacratissimum latus tuum et sub protegentem pallium Dominae nostrae, Matris meae. Sancti angeli me adiuvent et in pace custodiant, et benedictio tua sit super me.

Iesu, Maria et Ioseph, vobis do cor meum et animam meam.

Iesu, Maria et Ioseph, assistite mihi in ultima agonia mea.

Iesu, Maria et Ioseph, facite ut animam meam in pace exhalem in amantibus vestris ulnis.

Ne sol occidat super iracundiam meam; nunc oculos meos in pace cum Deo meo et proximis meis claudam.

In manus tuas, Domine, commendo spiritum meum.
