The following order of prayers and blessings, which departs from that of most prayer books, is based on the consensus of recent halakhic authorities. See laws 316-324.
On waking, our first thought should be that we are in the presence of God. Since we are forbidden to speak God's name until we have washed our hands, the following prayer is said, which, without mentioning God's name, acknowledges His presence and gives thanks for a new day and for the gift of life.
Hebrew
מוֹדֶה/women מוֹדָה/ אֲנִי לְפָנֶיךָ מֶלֶךְ חַי וְקַיָּם
שֶׁהֶחֱזַרְתָּ בִּי נִשְׁמָתִי בְּחֶמְלָה
רַבָּה אֱמוּנָתֶךָ.
Sephardi
Modeh (women Modah) ani lefanecha melech chai vekayam
shehechezarta bi nishmati bechemlah
rabah emunatecha.
English
I thank You, living and eternal King, for giving me back my soul in mercy. Great is Your faithfulness.
Wash hands and say the following blessings. Some have the custom to say "Wisdom begins" on page 10 at this point.
Hebrew
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם
אֲשֶׁר קִדְּשָׁנוּ בְּמִצְוֹתָיו וְצִוָּנוּ עַל נְטִילַת יָדָיִם.
Sephardi
Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha'olam
asher kidshanu bemitzvotav vetzivanu al netilat yadayim.
English
Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the Universe, who has made us holy through His commandments, and has commanded us about washing hands.
Hebrew
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ מֶלֶךְ הָעוֹלָם
אֲשֶׁר יָצַר אֶת הָאָדָם בְּחָכְמָה
וּבָרָא בוֹ נְקָבִים נְקָבִים, חֲלוּלִים חֲלוּלִים.
גָּלוּי וְיָדוּעַ לִפְנֵי כִסֵּא כְבוֹדֶךָ
שֶׁאִם יִפָּתֵחַ אֶחָד מֵהֶם אוֹ יִסָּתֵם אֶחָד מֵהֶם
אִי אֶפְשַׁר לְהִתְקַיֵּם וְלַעֲמוֹד לְפָנֶיךָ אֲפִלּוּ שָׁעָה אֶחָת.
בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְהוָה, רוֹפֵא כָל בָּשָׂר וּמַפְלִיא לַעֲשׂוֹת.
Sephardi
Baruch atah Adonai Eloheinu melech ha'olam
asher yatzar et ha'adam bechochmah
uvara vo nekavim nekavim, chalulim chalulim.
galui veyadua lifnei kisei kevodecha
she'im yipateach echad meihem o yisatem echad meihem
i efshar lehitkayem vela'amod lefanecha afilu sha'ah echat.
Baruch atah Adonai, rofei chol basar umafii la'asot.
English
Blessed are You, LORD our God, King of the Universe, who formed man in wisdom and created in him many orifices and cavities. It is revealed and known before the throne of Your glory that were one of them to be ruptured or blocked, it would be impossible to survive and stand before You, even for a moment. Blessed are You, LORD, Healer of all flesh who does wondrous deeds.
