Opening Words:
I will give you as a light to the nations, that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.
Isaiah 49:6b
Confession:
Let us humbly confess our sins unto Almighty God.
Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.
Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen.
The Invitatory
Lord, open our lips.
And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Alleluia.
Psalm 95:1-7
The Lord has shown forth his glory: Come let us adore him.
Come, let us sing to the Lord; *
let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *
and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.
For the Lord is a great God, *
and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the caverns of the earth, *
and the heights of the hills are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, *
and his hands have molded the dry land.
Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, *
and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *
Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!
The Lord has shown forth his glory: Come let us adore him.
The Psalter
Psalm 117
1
Praise the Lord, all you nations; *
laud him, all you peoples.
2
For his loving-kindness toward us is great, *
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures for ever.
Hallelujah!
Psalm 118
1
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; *
his mercy endures for ever.
2
Let Israel now proclaim, *
“His mercy endures for ever.”
3
Let the house of Aaron now proclaim, *
“His mercy endures for ever.”
4
Let those who fear the Lord now proclaim, *
“His mercy endures for ever.”
5
I called to the Lord in my distress; *
the Lord answered by setting me free.
6
The Lord is at my side, therefore I will not fear; *
what can anyone do to me?
7
The Lord is at my side to help me; *
I will triumph over those who hate me.
8
It is better to rely on the Lord *
than to put any trust in flesh.
9
It is better to rely on the Lord *
than to put any trust in rulers.
10
All the ungodly encompass me; *
in the Name of the Lord I will repel them.
11
They hem me in, they hem me in on every side; *
in the name of the Lord I will repel them.
12
They swarm about me like bees;
they blaze like a fire of thorns; *
in the name of the Lord I will repel them.
13
I was pressed so hard that I almost fell, *
but the Lord came to my help.
14
The Lord is my strength and my song, *
and he has become my salvation.
15
There is a sound of exultation and victory *
in the tents of the righteous:
16
“The right hand of the Lord has triumphed! *
the right hand of the Lord is exalted!
the right hand of the Lord has triumphed!”
17
I shall not die, but live, *
and declare the works of the Lord.
18
The Lord has punished me sorely, *
but he did not hand me over to death.
19
Open for me the gates of righteousness; *
I will enter them;
I will offer thanks to the Lord.
20
“This is the gate of the Lord; *
he who is righteous may enter.”
21
I will give thanks to you, for you answered me *
and have become my salvation.
22
The same stone which the builders rejected *
has become the chief cornerstone.
23
This is the Lord’s doing, *
and it is marvelous in our eyes.
24
On this day the Lord has acted; *
we will rejoice and be glad in it.
25
Hosanna, Lord, hosanna! *
Lord, send us now success.
26
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord; *
we bless you from the house of the Lord.
27
God is the Lord; he has shined upon us; *
form a procession with branches up to the horns of the altar.
28
“You are my God, and I will thank you; *
you are my God, and I will exalt you.”
29
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; *
his mercy endures for ever.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *
as it was in the begin...
