Service Book of the Holy Orthodox Apostolic Church

O heavenly King, O Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, Who art in all places and fillest all things, Treasury of good things and Giver of Life: Come and dwell in us and cleanse us from every stain, and save our souls, O gracious Lord.

This book contains the more frequently used prayers and Services of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Church in America. The liturgical use here set forth conforms to current Antiochian practice in this country; no attempt has been made to present the various Services in an archaeologically complete form. The English text of the prayers and services has been compared with the Greek and Arabic originals.

This Service Book is hereby approved and authorized for the use of all the faithful Orthodox Christians of our Archdiocese.

O Christ our God, Who at all times and in every hour, in heaven and on earth, art worshipped and glorified; Who art long-suffering, merciful and compassionate; Who loves the just and showest mercy upon sinners; who callest all to salvation through the promise of blessings to come; O Lord, in this hour, receive our supplications, and direct our lives according to Thy commandments.
Sanctify our souls, hallow our bodies, correct our thoughts, cleanse our minds; deliver us from all tribulations, evil and distress.
Encompass us with Thy holy Angels, that guided and guarded by them, we may attain to the unity of the Faith and to the knowledge of Thine approachable glory, for Thou art blessed unto ages of ages. Amen.
