Wednesday - Daysong Invitation

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



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 nations will know how you de-liver your peo-ple.

Let foreign-ers re-joice and cele-brate!
For you exe-cute justice 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 121

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



I look up toward the hills.
From where does my help come?
My help comes from/the Lord,
the Cre-ator of heaven and earth!

May he not al-low your foot to slip!
May your pro-tector not sleep!
Look! Isra-el's pro-tector does not sleep
Nor does he ever slum-ber!

The Lord is your pro-tec-tor;
the Lord is/the shade at your right hand.
The sun will/not harm you by day,
nor will the moon by night.

The Lord will pro-tect you from all harm;
he will pro-tect your life.
The Lord will pro-tect you/in all you do,
now _ and for-ever-more.

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 24:45-51

"Who then is the faithful and wise slave, whom his master has put in charge of his household, to give the other slaves their allowance of food at the proper time? Blessed is that slave whom his master will find at work when he arrives. Truly I tell you, he will put that one in charge of all his possessions. But if that wicked slave says to himself, 'My master is delayed, 'and he begins to beat his fellow slaves, and eats and drinks with drunkards, the master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour that he does not know. He will cut him in pieces and put him with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

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

Your king-dom come,

now and for-ever A-men.
