Audi Domine hymnum et orationem quam servus tuus orat coram te hodie:
ut sint oculi tui aperti et aures tuae intendentes super domum istam die ac nocte.

Hearken, O Lord, unto the cry and to the prayer, which thy servant prayeth before thee today:
That thine eyes may be open and thine ears may be turned toward this house night and day.
