A Very Little Office of Compline: Night Prayer for Children

By Bo Bonner

Visit we beseech thee Lord

This house in which we dwell,

Let Angels who abide herein

The devil's snares dispel,

In peace, please keep our weary heads,

And your blessings always as well.

Through Christ our Lord,

Amen.

Teach your children the timeless rhythm of prayer with A Very Little Office of Compline. When praying the psalms and hymns of the Divine Office in the given hours of the day, we truly "pray without ceasing." This gift of prayer that orients us always toward God can be enjoyed by even the littlest of souls. Compline, prayed in the last hour, is especially enriching for children because it sets a nighttime prayer routine. Compline includes psalms and hymns that ask God for His protection while we sleep. A Very Little Office of Compline can be used to pray the Liturgy of the Hours as well. These prayers, complete with elegant illustrations, were faithfully adapted by Bo Bonner so that your children are introduced to the beauty and depth of the Divine Office in an approachable way.
