Invitation

Pentecost - Monday Invitation

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



The Lord is in his ho-ly tem-ple;
let all the earth keep si-lence be-fore him
I was glad when they said to me,
Let us go to the house of the Lord.

Let the words of my mouth
and the med-i-ta-tion of my heart
be ac-cep-ta-ble in your sight, O Lord,
my strength and my re-deem-er.

Thus says the high and loft-y One
who in-hab-its e-ter-ni-ty,
whose name is Ho-ly,
I dwell in the high and ho-ly place

Send out your light
and your truth, that they may lead me,
and bring me to your ho-ly hill
and to your dwel-ling place.

Give thanks to the Lord, and call up-on his Name;
make known his deeds a-mong the peo-ples.
Lord, o-pen our lips.
And our mouth shall pro-claim your praise.

Glo-ry to the Fath-er, and to the Son,
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in the be-gin-ning, is now,
and will be for ev-er. A-men.

Monday - Jubilate

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     





Be joy-ful in the Lord, all you lands;
serve the Lord with glad-ness
and come be-fore his pres-ence with a song.
Know this: The Lord him-self is God;

He him-self has made us, and we are his;
we are his peo-ple and the sheep of his pas-ture.
En-ter his gates with thanks-giv-ing;
go into his courts with praise;

Give thanks to him and call up-on his Name.
Be-cause the Lord is good;
his mer-cy is ev-er last-ing;
and his faith-ful-ness en-dures from age to age.

Psalms

Psalm 56

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Have mer-cy on me, O God,
for men are at-tack-ing me!
All day long hos-tile en-e-mies are tor-ment-ing me.
Those who an-tic-i-pate my de-feat at-tack me all day long.

In-deed, man-y are fight-ing a-gainst me, O Ex-alt-ed One.
When I am a-fraid, I trust in you.
In God I boast in his prom-ise
in God I trust, I am not a-fraid.

What can mere men do to me?
All day long they cause me trou-ble;
they make a hab-it of plot-ting my de-mise.
They stalk and lurk; they watch my eve-ry step,

As they pre-pare to take my life.
Be-cause they are bent on vio-lence,
do not let them es-cape!
In your an-ger bring down the na-tions, O God!

You keep track of my mis-er-y.
Put my tears in your leath-er con-tain-er!
Are they not re-cord-ed in your scroll?
My en-e-mies will turn back when I cry out to you for help;

I know that God is on my side.
In God I boast in his prom-ise
in the Lord I boast in his prom-ise
in God I trust, I am not a-fraid.

What can mere men do to me?
I am o-bli-gat-ed to ful-fill the vows I made to you, O God;
I will give you the thank of-fer-ings you de-serve,
when you de-liv-er my life from death.

You keep my feet from stumb-ling,
so that I might serve God as I en-joy life.
I know that God is on my side.
In God I boast in his prom-ise

Glo-ry to the Fath-er, and to the Son,
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in the be-gin-ning, is now,
and will be for ev-er. A-men.

Psalm 57

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Have mer-cy on me,
O God! Have mer-cy on me!
For in you I have tak-en shel-ter.
In the shad-ow of your wings

I take shel-ter un-til trou-ble pass-es.
I cry out for help to God Most High,
to the God who vin-di-cates me.
May he send help from heav-en

and de-liv-er me from my en-e-mies who hurl in-sults!
May God send his loy-al love and faith-ful-ness!
I am sur-round-ed by li-ons;
I lie down a-mong those who want to de-vour me;

men whose teeth are spears and ar-rows,
whose tongues are a sharp sword.
Rise up a-bove the sky, O God!
May your splen-dor cov-er the whole earth!

They have pre-pared a net to trap me;
I am great-ly dis-cour-aged.
They have dug a pit for me.
But they will fall into it!

I am de-ter-mined, O God!
I am de-ter-mined! I will sing and praise you!
A-wake, my soul! A-wake,
O stringed in-stru-ment and harp!

I will wake up at dawn!
I will give you thanks be-fore the na-tions, O Lord!
I will sing prais-es to you be-fore for-eign-ers!
For your loy-al love ex-tends be-yond the sky,

Your faith-ful-ness reach-es the clouds.
Rise up a-bove the sky, O God!
May your splen-dor cov-er the whole earth!
Your faith-ful-ness reach-es the clouds.

Glo-ry to the Fath-er, and to the Son,
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in the be-gin-ning, is now,
and will be for ev-er. A-men.

Readings

A reading from Job 40:1-24

Then the Lord answered Job:

“Will the one who contends with the Almighty correct him?
Let the person who accuses God give him an answer!”

Then Job answered the Lord:

“Indeed, I am completely unworthy – how could I reply to you?
I put my hand over my mouth to silence myself.

I have spoken once, but I cannot answer;
twice, but I will say no more.”

Then the Lord answered Job from the whirlwind:

“Get ready for a difficult task like a man.
I will question you and you will inform me!

Would you indeed annul my justice?
Would you declare me guilty so that you might be right?

Do you have an arm as powerful as God’s,
and can you thunder with a voice like his?

Adorn yourself, then, with majesty and excellency,
and clothe yourself with glory and honor!

Scatter abroad the abundance of your anger.
Look at every proud man and bring him low;

Look at every proud man and abase him;
crush the wicked on the spot!

Hide them in the dust together,
imprison them in the grave.

Then I myself will acknowledge to you
that your own right hand can save you.

“Look now at Behemoth, which I made as I made you;
it eats grass like the ox.

Look at its strength in its loins,
and its power in the muscles of its belly.

It makes its tail stiff like a cedar,
the sinews of its thighs are tightly wound.

Its bones are tubes of bronze,
its limbs like bars of iron.

It ranks first among the works of God,
the One who made it
has furnished it with a sword.

For the hills bring it food,
where all the wild animals play.

Under the lotus trees it lies,
in the secrecy of the reeds and the marsh.

The lotus trees conceal it in their shadow;
the poplars by the stream conceal it.

If the river rages, it is not disturbed,
it is secure, though the Jordan
should surge up to its mouth.

Can anyone catch it by its eyes,
or pierce its nose with a snare?

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Monday - Song of Mary

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     




My soul pro-claims the great-ness of the Lord,
my spi-rit re-joic-es in God my Sav-ior;
for he has looked with fa-vor on his low-ly serv-ant.
From this day all gen-er-a-tions will call me blessed:

the Al-might-y has done great things for me,
and ho-ly is his Name.
He has mer-cy on those who fear him
in eve-ry gen-er-a-tion.

He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scat-tered the proud in their con-ceit.
He has cast down the might-y from their thrones,
and has lift-ed up the low-ly.

He has filled the hun-gry with good things,
and the rich he has sent a-way emp-ty.
He has come to the help of his serv-ant Is-ra-el,
for he has re-mem-bered his prom-ise of mer-cy,

The prom-ise he made to our fath-ers,
to A-bra-ham and his chil-dren for-ev-er.
My soul pro-claims the great-ness of the Lord,
my spi-rit re-joic-es in God my Sav-ior;

Glo-ry to the Fath-er, and to the Son,
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in the be-gin-ning, is now,
and will be for ev-er. A-men.

A reading from Acts 15:36-16:5

After some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let’s return and visit the brothers in every town where we proclaimed the word of the Lord to see how they are doing.” Barnabas wanted to bring John called Mark along with them too, but Paul insisted that they should not take along this one who had left them in Pamphylia and had not accompanied them in the work. They had a sharp disagreement, so that they parted company. Barnabas took along Mark and sailed away to Cyprus, but Paul chose Silas and set out, commended to the grace of the Lord by the brothers and sisters. He passed through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.

He also came to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple named Timothy was there, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer, but whose father was a Greek. The brothers in Lystra and Iconium spoke well of him. Paul wanted Timothy to accompany him, and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those places, for they all knew that his father was Greek. As they went through the towns, they passed on the decrees that had been decided on by the apostles and elders in Jerusalem for the Gentile believers to obey. So the churches were being strengthened in the faith and were increasing in number every day.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Monday - Song of Moses

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     




I will sing to the Lord,
for he is loft-y and up-lift-ed;
the horse and its rid-er
has he hurled into the sea.

The Lord is my strength and my ref-uge;
the Lord has be-come my Sav-ior.
This is my God and I will praise him,
the God of my peo-ple and I will ex-alt him.

The Lord is a might-y war-ri-or;
Yah-weh is his ho-ly Name.
The char-i-ots of Phar-oah and his ar-my
has he hurled into the sea;

The fin-est of those who bear ar-mor
have been drowned in the Red Sea.
The fa-thom-less deep has o-ver-whelmed them;
they sank into the depths like a stone.

Your right hand, O Lord,
is glo-ri-ous and might-y;
your right hand, O Lord,
has o-ver-thrown the en-e-my.

Who can be com-pared with you,
O Lord, a-mong the gods?
who is like you,
glo-ri-ous in ho-li-ness,

Awe-some in re-nown,
and work-er of won-ders?
You stretched forth your right hand;
the earth swal-lowed them up.

With your con-stant love
you led the peo-ple you re-deemed;
with your might you brought them in safe-ty
to your ho-ly dwell-ing place.

You will bring them in and plant them
on the mount of your pos-ses-sion,
In the rest-ing place
you have made for your-self, O Lord,

In the sanc-tu-ar-y, O Lord,
that your hand has es-tab-lished.
The Lord shall reign
for ev-er and for ev-er. A-men!

Glo-ry to the Fath-er, and to the Son,
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in the be-gin-ning, is now,
and will be for ev-er. A-men.

Prayers

Monday Creed

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



We be-lieve in God, the Fath-er al-might-y,
cre-a-tor of heav-en and earth.
We be-lieve in Je-sus Christ,
his on-ly son, our Lord.

He was con-ceived by the pow-er of the Ho-ly Spi-rit
and born of the Vir-gin Ma-ry.
He suf-fered un-der Pon-tius Pi-late,
was cru-ci-fied, died, and was bur-ied.

He de-scend-ed to the dead.
On the third day he rose a-gain.
He a-scend-ed into heav-en,
and is seat-ed at the right hand of the Fath-er.

He will come a-gain
to judge the liv-ing and the dead.
We be-lieve in the Ho-ly Spi-rit,
the ho-ly cath-o-lic Church,

the com-mun-ion of saints,
the for-give-ness of sins,
the res-ur-rec-tion of the bod-y,
and the life ev-er-last-ing. A-men.

Our Fath-er in heav-en,
hal-low-ed be your Name.

Your king-dom come,

Give us to-day our dai-ly bread.
For-give us our sins as we for-give those who sin a-gainst us.

and de-liv-er us from e-vil.
For the king-dom, the pow-er, and the glo-ry are yours,
now and for ev-er. A-men.

Show us your mer-cy, O Lord;
And grant us your sal-va-tion.
Clothe your min-is-ters with right-eous-ness;
Let your peo-ple sing with joy.

Give peace, O Lord, in all the world;
For on-ly in you can we live in safe-ty.
Lord, keep this na-tion un-der your care;
And guide us in the way of jus-tice and truth.

Let your way be known up-on earth;
Your sav-ing health a-mong all na-tions.
Let not the need-y, O Lord, be for-got-ten;
Nor the hope of the poor be tak-en a-way.

And sus-tain us with your Ho-ly Spi-rit.
Show us your mer-cy, O Lord;
And grant us your sal-va-tion.

Collects of the Day

Almighty God, Lord of heaven and earth: We humbly pray that your gracious providence may give and preserve to our use the harvests of the land and of the seas, and may prosper all who labor to gather them, that we, who are constantly receiving good things from your hand, may always give you thanks; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Amen.

A Collect for the Renewal of Life

O God, the King eternal, whose light divides the day from the night and turns the shadow of death into the morning: Drive far from us all wrong desires, incline our hearts to keep your law, and guide our feet into the way of peace; that, having done your will with cheerfulness while it was day, we may, when night comes, rejoice to give you thanks; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Prayer for Mission

O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth, and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far off and to those who are near: Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you; bring the nations into your fold; pour out your Spirit upon all flesh; and hasten the coming of your kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Al-might-y God, Fa-ther of all mer-cies,

for all your good-ness and lov-ing kind-ness
