Description
Small Compline, the final prayer service of the day which typically occurs after the evening meal and in compunctive preparation for sleep. It is an opportunity to give thanks for the joys and graces we've received during the day, and an honorable way in which to end the day the same way it began: In doxological prayer to God. The translation used is published by Holy Transfiguration Monastery in Brookline Massachusetts. It maintains a genuine faithfulness to the original Greek text, while striking a judicious balance between poeticism and interpretation. If you don't have the book already, head on over here to treat yourself to one.
