  1. I arise this day
    The power of God to guide me
    The might of God to uphold me
    The wisdom of God to teach me.
    The eye of God to watch over me
    The shield of God to shelter me
    The host of God to defend me
    Against temptations and vices
    Against the snares of the devil.
    Against every man who meditates injury to me.
