God and King, blessed are all of your saints who’ve travelled over the raging sea of mortality, and have reached the port of pleased peace. Graciously look on us on our harmful voyage. Bear in mind, assist and strengthen us in our misery, and assist those that are going by means of rougher storms of bother and temptation. Strengthen us for battle. Defend us from our personal negligence and cowardice. Lord, after this virtuous and noble service, deliver our ship secure to shore, to your harbor above. Amen.
