May God bless us!
May God, our God, bless us!
Then all the ends of/the earth
will give him the honor he de-serves.

May God show us his favor and bless us!
May he smile up-on us!
Then those living on earth will know what you are like;
all na-tions will know how you de-liver your peo-ple.

Let foreign-ers re-joice and cel-e-brate!
For you exe-cute jus-tice a-mong the na-tions,
O God, make speed to save us.
O Lord, make haste to help us.

Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,
and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in/the be-ginning, is now,
and will be for-ever A-men.

Psalm 132

O Lord, for Da-vid's sake
re-member all his strenu-ous ef-fort,
and how he made/a vow to/the Lord,
and swore an oath to/the Power-ful One of Ja-cob.

He said, I will not enter my own home,
or get into my own bed.
I will not al-low my eyes to sleep,
or my eye-lids to slum-ber,

un-til I find a place for/the Lord,
a fine dwelling place for/the Power-ful One of Ja-cob.
Look, we heard a-bout/it in E-phra-thah,
we found it in/the terri-to-ry of Jaar.

Let us go to his dwelling place!
Let us wor-ship be-fore his foot-stool!
A-scend, O Lord, to your rest-ing place,
you and the ark of your strength!

May your priests be clothed with in-tegri-ty!
May your loyal follow-ers shout for joy!
For the sake of Da-vid, your serv-ant,
do not re-ject your chosen king!

The Lord made a re-lia-ble prom-ise to Da-vid;
he will not go back on his word.
He said, I will place
one of your de-scendants on your throne.

If your sons keep my cove-nant
and the rules I teach them,
their sons will also sit on your throne for-ev-er.
Certain-ly the Lord has cho-sen Zi-on;

he de-cid-ed to make it his home.
He said, This will be my rest-ing place for-ev-er;
I will live here, for I have chosen it.
I will a-bundant-ly sup-ply what she needs;

I will give her poor all/the food they need.
I will pro-tect her priests,
and her god-ly people will shout ex-uber-ant-ly.
There I will make Da-vid strong;

I have de-ter-mined
that my chosen king's dy-nas-ty will con-tin-ue.
I will hu-mili-ate his ene-mies,
and his crown will ev-er shine.

Glory to/the Fath-er, and to/the Son,
and to/the Ho-ly Spi-rit:
as it was in/the be-ginning, is now,
and will be for-ever A-men.

Readings

A reading from Matthew 6:1-6, 16-18

“Be careful not to display your righteousness merely to be seen by people. Otherwise you have no reward with your Father in heaven. Thus whenever you do charitable giving, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in synagogues and on streets so that people will praise them. I tell you the truth, they have their reward! But when you do your giving, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your gift may be in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

“Whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, because they love to pray while standing in synagogues and on street corners so that people can see them. Truly I say to you, they have their reward! But whenever you pray, go into your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

“When you fast, do not look sullen like the hypocrites, for they make their faces unattractive so that people will see them fasting. I tell you the truth, they have their reward! When you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others when you are fasting, but only to your Father who is in secret. And your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Thursday - Our Father

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



The Lord be with you.
And al-so with _ you.
Our Fath-er in heav-en,
hal-low-ed be your Name.

Your king-dom come,
your will be done on earth
as it is in heav-en.
Give us to-day our dai-ly bread.

For-give us our sins
as we _ for-give those
who sin a-gainst us.
Save us from/the time of tri-al,

De-liver us from e-vil.
For the king-dom, the pow-er,
and the glory are yours,
now and for-ever A-men.

Collect of the Day

Almighty Savior, who at noonday called your servant Saint Paul to be an apostle to the Gentiles: We pray you to illumine the world with the radiance of your glory, that all nations may come and worship you; for you live and reign for ever and ever.

Amen.

A Collect for Guidance

Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in your sight; 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.
