O God who causes the light to burst forth, who lets His sun shine upon the righteous and the wicked, who created the light which illuminates the whole world, enlighten our minds, our hearts and our understandings, we ask You, O our Master, the King of all ages, let Your face shine upon us, and the light of Your divine knowledge enlighten us. Grant us, O our Master, to be sons of light and sons of day, to pass this day in righteousness, chastity and good conduct, that we may complete all the rest of the days of our life without offense; through the grace, the compassion and the love of mankind of Your only-begotten Son Jesus Christ, and the gift of Your Holy Spirit, now and at all times and forever. Amen.
