What might a day feel like when waking, eating, working and resting each have a place in prayer?
Orthodox Daily Prayers gathers devotional texts from the Eastern Orthodox Church, shared across Greek, Slavic and other Orthodox traditions for centuries. It has no single author. Some prayers are traditionally linked to saints and Church fathers; many are anonymous. Together, they offer a daily rule: a pattern of prayer for the ordinary hours of life.
Morning and evening prayers frame the day, alongside words of thanks and repentance and prayers for family, the sick and the departed. The collection also introduces the Trisagion, a threefold praise of God as holy. These are texts to return to slowly, aloud or silently, rather than a story to finish or an argument to follow.

A book gathered by the Church over centuries
Orthodox prayer books are not the work of one writer. They collect texts that the Eastern Church has used over many generations. The prayers were first written in Greek, Church Slavonic and other languages, and each tradition prints its own selection in its own tongue.
The core is usually a daily rule. It includes morning prayers, evening prayers, prayers before sleep and prayers at meals. Many books add prayers before and after Holy Communion, prayers for the sick, for travelers and for the departed. Psalms often appear as well, because the Church has prayed them from its earliest days.

It is a short prayer asking Christ for mercy, repeated slowly and quietly. It is linked with monks and the tradition of quiet prayer, and many lay Orthodox Christians use it each day.
