Syriac Christian Ancient Prayer Fragments
[Archive witness: prayer fragments of the ancient Syriac Christians.]
O Christ, light of the Father, who came down and put on our body and saved us: have mercy on us, and let your peace dwell among us. [Line damaged]
At evening we give you thanks, O Lord,
who set the sun for the day
and the lamps for the night.
Keep us through the hours of darkness,
and bring us to the morning in peace.
