Here are the readings and prayers in this video:-

Psalm 23 (NHEB)
The LORD is my shepherd; I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He guides me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup runs over. Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the LORD's house forever.

Psalm 121 (NHEB)
(i) 1 I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where does my help come from? 2 My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth. 3 He will not allow your foot to be moved. He who keeps you will not slumber. 4 Look, he who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. 5 The LORD is your keeper. The LORD is your shade on your right hand. 6 The sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. 7 The LORD will keep you from all evil. He will keep your soul. 8 The LORD will keep your going out and your coming in, from this time forth, and forevermore.

John 14:27 (NHEB)
Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

The Lord’s Prayer
(U.S. Book of Common Prayer, 1928 edition).

Psalm 42:1-2, 5, 8 (excerpts from the NHEB)
As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants after you, God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God?
Why are you in despair, my soul? Why are you disturbed within me? Hope in God. For I will still praise him, my salvation and my God.
The LORD will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the God of my life.

Psalm 23 (NHEB)
