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 1

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



How bless-ed is the one
who does not fol-low the ad-vice of the wick-ed,
or stand in the path-way with sin-ners,
or sit in the as-sem-bly of scoff-ers!

In-stead he finds pleas-ure
in o-bey-ing the Lord's com-mands;
he med-i-tates on his com-mands day and night.
He is like a tree plant-ed by flow-ing streams;

It yields its fruit at the prop-er time,
and its leaves nev-er fall off.
He suc-ceeds in eve-ry-thing he at-tempts.
But not so with the wick-ed!

In-stead they are like wind-driv-en chaff.
For this rea-son the wick-ed can-not with-stand judg-ment,
nor can sin-ners join the as-sem-bly of the god-ly.
Cer-tain-ly the Lord guards the way of the god-ly,

The way of the wick-ed ends in de-struc-tion.
How bless-ed is the one who does not fol-low their ad-vice
or stand in the path-way with sin-ners,
or sit in the as-sem-bly of scoff-ers!

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 2

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Why do the na-tions re-bel?
Why are the coun-tries de-vis-ing plots that will fail?
The kings of the earth
form a u-nit-ed front;

the rul-ers col-lab-o-rate
a-gainst the Lord and his a-noint-ed king.
They say, Let us tear off
the shack-les they have put on us!

Let us free our-selves from their rope!
The one en-throned in heav-en laughs in dis-gust;
the Lord taunts them.
Then he an-gri-ly speaks to them

and ter-ri-fies them in his rage, say-ing,
I my-self have in-stalled my king
on Zi-on, my ho-ly hill.
The king says, I will an-nounce the Lords de-cree.

He said to me: You are my son!
This ver-y day I have be-come your fath-er!
Ask me, and I will give you
the na-tions as your in-her-it-ance,

the ends of the earth
as your per-son-al prop-er-ty.
You will break them
with an i-ron scep-ter;

You will smash them like a pot-ters jar!
So now, you kings, do what is wise;
you rul-ers of the earth,
sub-mit to cor-rec-tion!

Serve the Lord in fear! Re-pent in ter-ror!
Give God sin-cere hom-age!
Oth-er-wise he will be an-gry,
and you will sure-ly die

Be-cause of your be-hav-ior,
when his an-ger quick-ly ig-nites.
How bless-ed are all
who take shel-ter in him!

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 3

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Lord, how nu-mer-ous are my en-e-mies!
Man-y at-tack me. Man-y say a-bout me,
God will not de-liv-er him.
But you, Lord, are a shield that pro-tects me;

You are my glo-ry
and the one who re-stores me.
To the Lord I cried out,
and he an-swered me from his ho-ly hill.

I rest-ed and slept;
I a-woke, for the Lord pro-tects me.
I am not a-fraid of the mul-ti-tude of peo-ple
who at-tack me from all di-rec-tions.

Rise up, Lord! De-liv-er me, my God!
Yes, you will strike all my en-e-mies on the jaw;
you will break the teeth of the wick-ed.
The Lord de-liv-ers; you show fa-vor to your peo-ple.

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 Micah 7:1-7



Woe is me!
For I am like those gathering fruit
and those harvesting grapes,
when there is no grape cluster to eat
and no fresh figs that my stomach craves.

Faithful men have disappeared from the land;
there are no godly men left.
They all wait in ambush to shed blood;
they hunt their own brother with a net.

They are experts at doing evil;
government officials and judges take bribes,
prominent men announce what they wish,
and then they plan it out.

The best of them is like a thorn;
their godly are like a thornbush.
Woe to your watchmen;
your appointed punishment is on the way.
The time of their confusion is now.

Do not rely on a friend;
do not trust a companion!
Even with the one who lies in your arms,
do not share secrets!

For a son thinks his father is a fool,
a daughter challenges her mother,
and a daughter-in-law her mother-in-law;
a man’s enemies are his own family.

But I will keep watching for the Lord;
I will wait for the God who delivers me.
My God will listen to me.

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 Luke 8:26-39

So they sailed over to the region of the Gerasenes, which is opposite Galilee. As Jesus stepped ashore, a certain man from the town met him who was possessed by demons. For a long time this man had worn no clothes and had not lived in a house, but among the tombs. When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before him, and shouted with a loud voice, “Leave me alone, Jesus, Son of the Most High God! I beg you, do not torment me!” For Jesus had started commanding the evil spirit to come out of the man. (For it had seized him many times, so he would be bound with chains and shackles and kept under guard. But he would break the restraints and be driven by the demon into deserted places.) Jesus then asked him, “What is your name?” He said, “Legion,” because many demons had entered him. And they began to beg him not to order them to depart into the abyss. Now a large herd of pigs was feeding there on the hillside, and the demonic spirits begged Jesus to let them go into them. He gave them permission. So the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs, and the herd of pigs rushed down the steep slope into the lake and drowned. When the herdsmen saw what had happened, they ran off and spread the news in the town and countryside. So the people went out to see what had happened, and they came to Jesus. They found the man from whom the demons had gone out, sitting at Jesus’ feet, clothed and in his right mind, and they were afraid. Those who had seen it told them how the man who had been demon-possessed had been healed. Then all the people of the Gerasenes and the surrounding region asked Jesus to leave them alone, for they were seized with great fear. So he got into the boat and left. The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying, “Return to your home, and declare what God has done for you.” So he went away, proclaiming throughout the whole town what Jesus had done for him.

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.

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
