Daily Prayer Set
"By day the Lord commands his steadfast love; and at night his song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life." - Psalm 42:8
Praying the Divine Office, also called the Liturgy of the Hours or the Work of God (opus Dei), is obligated for priests and religious, and is also a beautiful practice for all the faithful.
This Daily Prayer set features our two candles inspired by the Divine Office:
- Lauds, inspired by Morning Prayer (invigorating scents of citrus, morning dew, and juniper berry)
- Compline, inspired by Night Prayer (calming scents of dark amber, vanilla, and lavender)

You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:
- Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
- Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
- Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
- Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
- Keep out of direct sunlight
I started with one Corda candle from our local Abbey gift shop and fell in love. As someone with multiple allergies including soy, I have tried numerous coconut based candles. Corda candle have wonderful and lasting scents that I have not experienced in other non-soy-based candles. I love the combination with beeswax as well . But most importantly is the association of the scents and the candle names with our Catholic prayer life. I have since purchased candles as Christmas gifts and purchased more for myself from Corda. Thank you for your talent and God bless your business!
These candles smell wonderful and help me to make my morning prayer, evening prayer, and spending time with God a priority.
High quality candles with the best scents that are different from anything I've ever smelled before. I received these as a gift, and have now bought some as gifts to give others. I love to burn them during my prayer hour and during my Bible class.
These are beautifully made.
Excited to gift the Daily Prayer Set to my young adult daughter. It’s the perfect duo to start and end her day.
I love this set with two scents, one for morning and one for evening prayer. They enhance my prayer time!
As a Lay Carmelite we pray some of the prayers of the Liturgy of the Hours, so I was happy to find Corda’s Daily prayer set. I love using them for these prayers. The Lauds candle has almost an orange citrus smell that helps you wake up. It’s one of my favorite scents. The compline candle is more relaxing perfect for evening or night prayer. Will there be a Vespers candle someday? No pressure, these candles work out very well for all prayer times.
I love choosing Corda candles, because it was an inspiration from St. Joseph and the scents are beautiful.
This set was purchased for my cousin who prays the Divine Office daily. She was thrilled to receive this unique gift and is looking forward to burning them morning and night when she prays.
These candles smell INCREDIBLE! The scents are beautiful and robust, but not artificial or overpowering. I am so pleased with my purchase and will definitely be ordering more after these ones have been used.
I purchased a set as a gift & it’s taking all my willpower to not split the set and keep one for myself😆
