I. The order of the All-Night Service.

Prayer at the entrance to the temple. "I rejoiced when they said to me, 'Let us go to the house of the Lord.' And I, according to the abundance of Thy mercy, will enter into Thy house, I will worship Thy holy temple in Thy fear. O Lord, guide me in Thy righteousness, for the sake of my enemies; level Thy way before me, that I may glorify without stumbling the one Divinity of the Father and the Son of the Holy Spirit, now and always, and unto the ages of ages. Amen." (Psalm 121; I, 5; 8–9).

Prayer at the entrance to the church. "I worship Thee, the Lord my God, Who by His grace dwellest in this holy temple, and especially in the Most Pure and Life-Giving Mysteries; I bow the knee of my heart before Thee, the true Christ my Saviour. I also worship Thy Immaculate Mother, the Most Pure Lady Virgin Mary Theotokos, Helper, Intercessor, Intercessor, the only Hope and Hope in my salvation. I venerate the holy Angel, Thy servant, who always guards Thy Divine Altar. With love I kiss all Thy saints, depicted on icons and reposing in relics. And I beseech Thee, my good Lord, that Thy ears may always be attentive to the prayerful voice of the people who pray to Thee in this holy temple; and remember his departed parishioners in Thy heavenly Kingdom, forgiving all their sins, as eternally Good and Merciful. Amen."

The priest, having come to the holy church, putting on the stole and standing before the Royal Doors, exclaims:

"Blessed is our God always, now and continually, and unto the ages of ages."

Reader: "Amen." "Glory to Thee, O our God, glory to Thee."

"Heavenly King, Comforter, Spirit of truth, omnipresent and filling the whole world, Source of good things and Giver of life, come and dwell in us; cleanse us from all defilement and save, O Good One, our souls."

«Отче наш, сущий на небесах, да святится имя Твое; да приидет Царствие Твое; да будет воля Твоя и на земле, как на небе; хлеб наш насущный дай нам на этот день и прости нам долги наши, как и мы прощаем должникам нашим: и не введи нас в искушение, но избавь нас от лукавого»(Мф. 6; 9–13).
