RUBRIC: Canticle of the Lord Nersēs, Catholicos of the Armenians, said at the Night Office [Gišerayin žam].

Let us remember your name in the night, O Lord. Let our hearts overflow with a good word, and let our tongues recount the deeds of the heavenly King. Rising in the middle of the night, let us give thanks to you, O Lord. Let us offer our prayers to you, O Lord, in your courts, in the midst of the new Jerusalem. In the night, let us lift up our hands in holiness to you, O Lord. With a voice of thanksgiving, let all souls bless the Lord.

44.

Awake, my glory, awake; and I shall awake at the dawn. Alleluia. Awake with the Vigilant [Angels], children of upper Zion. Alleluia.
