Invitation

Tuesday - Advent Invitation

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Watch, for you know not when
the master of/the house will come,
at dusk, by night, at dawn, or by day;
lest he come sudden-ly and find you a-sleep.

In/the wilder-ness pre-pare the way of/the Lord,
make straight in/the desert a highway for our God.
The glory of/the Lord shall be re-vealed,
and all flesh shall see/it to-geth-er.

The hour is coming, and now is,
when the true wor-ship-ers
will wor-ship the Fath-er
in spi-rit and in truth,

for such are the follow-ers
the Fath-er seeks to wor-ship him.
Lord, o-pen our lips.
And our mouths shall pro-claim your praise.

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.

Tuesday - 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 presence with a song.
Know this: The Lord him-self is God;

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

Give thanks to him and call on his Name.
Be-cause the Lord is good;
his mercy is ever last-ing;
and his faithful-ness en-dures from age to age.

Psalms

Psalm 5

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



List-en to what I say, Lord!
Care-fully con-sider my com-plaint!
Pay at-tention to my cry for help,
O my king and my God,

For I am praying to you!
Lord, in/the morning you will hear me;
in the morning I will pre-sent my case to you
and then wait ex-pectant-ly for an an-swer.

Certain-ly you are not/a God who ap-proves of e-vil;
e-vil people cannot dwell with you.
Arro-gant people cannot stand in your pres-ence;
you hate all who be-have wick-ed-ly.

You de-stroy li-ars;
the Lord de-spises vio-lent and de-ceitful peo-ple.
But as for me, be-cause of your great faithful-ness
I will en-ter your house;

I will bow down
toward your holy tem-ple as/I wor-ship you.
Lord, lead me in your right-eous-ness
be-cause of those who wait to am-bush me,

Re-move the obsta-cles
in/the way in which you are guid-ing me!
For they do not speak the truth;
their stomachs are like the place of de-struc-tion,

their throats like an o-pen grave,
their tongues like a steep slope leading into it.
Con-demn them, O God!
May their own schemes be their down-fall!

Drive them a-way
be-cause of their many acts of insur-rec-tion,
for they have re-belled a-gainst you.
But may all who take shelter in you be hap-py!

May they con-tin-ual-ly shout for joy!
Shelter them so that those who are loyal to you may re-joice!
Certain-ly you re-ward the god-ly, Lord.
Like a shield you pro-tect them in your good fa-vor.

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 6

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Lord, do not re-buke me in your an-ger!
Do not disci-pline me in your raging fu-ry!
Have mer-cy on me, Lord, for I am frail!
Heal me, Lord, for my bones are shak-ing!

I am abso-lute-ly terri-fied,
and you, Lord how long will this con-tin-ue?
Re-lent, Lord, res-cue me!
De-liver me be-cause of your faithful-ness!

For no one re-members you
who a-bides in/the realm of death,
In She-ol who gives you thanks?
I am ex-hausted as I groan;

All night long I drench my bed in tears;
my tears satu-rate the cush-ion be-neath me.
My eyes grow dim from suffer-ing;
they grow weak be-cause of all my ene-mies.

Turn back from me, all you who be-have wicked-ly,
for the Lord has heard the sound of my weep-ing!
The Lord has heard my ap-peal for mer-cy;
the Lord has ac-cept-ed my prayer.

They will be hu-mili-at-ed
and ab-so-lute-ly terri-fied!
All my ene-mies
will turn back and be sudden-ly hu-mili-at-ed!

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 Amos 3:1-11

Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O people of Israel, against the whole family that I brought up out of the land of Egypt:You only have I known of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. Do two walk together unless they have made an appointment?Does a lion roar in the forest, when it has no prey? Does a young lion cry out from its den, if it has caught nothing?Does a bird fall into a snare on the earth, when there is no trap for it? Does a snare spring up from the ground, when it has taken nothing?Is a trumpet blown in a city, and the people are not afraid? Does disaster befall a city, unless the LORD has done it?Surely the Lord does nothing, without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets. The lion has roared; who will not fear? The Lord has spoken; who can but prophesy?

Proclaim to the strongholds in Ashdod, and to the strongholds in the land of Egypt, and say, "Assemble yourselves on Mount Samaria, and see what great tumults are within it, and what oppressions are in its midst. "They do not know how to do right, says the LORD, those who store up violence and robbery in their strongholds. Therefore thus says the Lord : An adversary shall surround the land, and strip you of your defense; and your strongholds shall be plundered.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Tuesday - Song of the Redeemed

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



O rul-er of/the uni-verse, Lord God,
great deeds are they that you have done,
sur-pas-sing human under-stand-ing.
Your ways are ways of righteous-ness and truth,

O King of all the ag-es.
Who can fail to do you hom-age, Lord,
and sing the praises of your Name?
for you only are the Ho-ly One.

All na-tions will draw near
and fall down be-fore you,
be-cause your just and holy works
have been re-vealed. Alle-lu-ia, a-men!

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.

A reading from Matthew 21:12-22

Then Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who were selling and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. He said to them, "It is written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer'; but you are making it a den of robbers. "The blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he cured them. But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the amazing things that he did, and heard the children crying out in the temple, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they became angryand said to him, "Do you hear what these are saying?" Jesus said to them, "Yes; have you never read, 'Out of the mouths of infants and nursing babies you have prepared praise for yourself'?"He left them, went out of the city to Bethany, and spent the night there.

In the morning, when he returned to the city, he was hungry. And seeing a fig tree by the side of the road, he went to it and found nothing at all on it but leaves. Then he said to it, "May no fruit ever come from you again!" And the fig tree withered at once. When the disciples saw it, they were amazed, saying, "How did the fig tree wither at once?"Jesus answered them, "Truly I tell you, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will be done. Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive. "

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Tuesday - Song of Zechariah

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Bless-ed be the Lord, the God of Is-ra-el;
he has come to his people and set them free.
He has raised up for us a mighty sav-ior,
born of/the house of his servant Da-vid.

Through his holy proph-ets he prom-ised of old,
that he would save us from our ene-mies,
from the hands of all who hate us.
He prom-ised to show mer-cy to our fath-ers

and to re-member his holy cov-e-nant.
This was the oath he swore to our fath-er A-bra-ham,
to set us free from/the hands of our ene-mies,
Free to wor-ship him without fear,

ho-ly and righteous in his sight
all the days of our life.
And you, my child, shall be called
the proph-et of/the Most High,

for you will go be-fore the Lord to pre-pare his way,
To give his people knowledge of sal-va-tion
by the for-give-ness of their sins.
In/the tender com-pas-sion of our God

the dawn from on high shall break up-on us,
To shine on those who dwell in dark-ness
and in/the shadow of death,
and to guide our feet into the way of peace.

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.

We be-lieve in/the Ho-ly Spi-rit,

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Show us your mer-cy, O Lord;
And grant us your sal-va-tion.
Clothe your minis-ters with righteous-ness;
Let your people sing with joy.

Give peace, O Lord, in all the world;
For only in you can we live in safe-ty.
Lord, keep this na-tion under your care;
And guide us in/the way of justice and truth.

Let your way be known up-on earth;
Your sav-ing health a-mong all na-tions.

Nor the hope of/the poor be taken a-way.

Cre-ate in us clean hearts, O God;
And sus-tain us with your Ho-ly Spi-rit.
Show us your mer-cy, O Lord;
And grant us your sal-va-tion.

Collect of the Day

Almighty God, whose Son Jesus Christ in his earthly life shared our toil and hallowed our labor: Be present with your people where they work; make those who carry on the industries and commerce of this land responsive to your will; and give to us all a pride in what we do, and a just return for our labor; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

Amen.

A Collect for Peace

O God, the author of peace and lover of concord, to know you is eternal life and to serve you is perfect freedom: Defend us, your humble servants, in all assaults of our enemies; that we, surely trusting in your defense, may not fear the power of any adversaries; through the might of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Prayer for Mission

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name.

Amen.
