A powerful prayer of protection against enemies of the physical and spiritual worlds
I rise on this day that dawns,
By a great force, by the invocation of the Trinity,
by faith in the Triad,
by the affirmation of the unity
of the Creator of Creation.
I rise on this day that dawns,
by the force of Christ’s birth in His baptism,
by the force of crucifixion and burial,
by the force of resurrection and ascension,
by the force of descent to the Last Judgment.
I rise on this day that dawns,
For the love of the strength of the Cherubim,
In obedience to the Angels,
the service of the Archangels,
For the hope of resurrection and reward,
From the prayers of the Patriarchs
By predictions of prophets, In
the preaching of the Apostles
By faith of the Confessors,
by the innocence of the holy virgins,
by the acts of the Blessed.
I rise on this day that dawns,
By the force of the sky:
Sunlight,
Moonlight,
Splendor of fire,
Speed of lightning, Speed of
the wind,
Depth of the seas,
Firmness of the earth,
Rock solidity.
