Great Lent

O Almighty Lord, who hast made all created things in wisdom, and by Your inexpressible providence and great goodness has brought us to these all-holy days, for the purification of body and soul, for the controlling of carnal passions, and for the hope of the Resurrection; who, during the forty days  gave to Your  servant Moses, the Tablets of the Law in characters Divinely written by You;  Enable us also, O Good One, to fight the good fight; to complete the course of the Fast; to preserve inviolate the Faith; to crush under foot the heads of invisible serpents; to be victorious over sin; and uncondemned to attain unto and adore Your Holy Resurrection. For blessed and glorified is Your all-honorable and majestic Name: of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. The Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, St. Gregory the Great
