Preces Quotidianae

Preparation for Blessing

The opening line sets the stage for the devotional act of blessing.

Preparing for the blessing.1

Thanksgiving and Praise

The believer gives thanks and then praises God's strength and mighty deeds in song.

Giving thanks. Be exalted, Lord, in Your strength: We will sing and chant of Your mighty deeds.

Read the original Latin

PRJEPARATIO AD Εὐλογίαν.

Gratiarum Actio.

Exaltare, Domine, in virtute Tua:

Cantabimus et psallemus virtutes Tuas.

Notes

  1. 1 ↩Latin PRJEPARATIO is almost certainly PRÆPARATIO / PREPARATIO (early-modern æ/encoding corruption). Greek Εὐλογίαν rendered as Blessing (liturgical eulogia).
