"After midnight we're gonna let it all hang out. After midnight we're gonna chug-a-lug and shout. We're gonna cause talk and suspicion, Give 'em an exhibition Find out what it is all about" - Eric Clapton. --- After midnight, we may do things that we would not do before. We often use the cover of darkness and solitude as a space for moral escapism. God Before Midnight reminds us that there is no escape and very often it's best to turn out the light and go to sleep.

Prayer of Thanksgiving
We thank you, O Lord, for all the mercies of every kind, and for your loving care over all your creatures. We bless you for the gift of life, for your protection, for your guiding hand upon us, and for the many tokens of your love within us; especially for the saving knowledge of your dear Son, our redeemer; and for the living presence of your Spirit, our comforter. We thank you for friendship and responsibility, for good hopes and precious memories, for the joys that cheer us and for the trials that teach us to trust in you. In all these things, make us wise in the right use of your gifts, through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen
