Grace to you and peace from God our Fa-ther
and from/the Lord Je-sus Christ.
Worship the Lord in/the beauty of his holi-ness;
let/the whole earth trem-ble be-fore him.

Let my prayer be set forth/in your sight as in-cense,
the lifting up/of my hands as/the evening sacri-fice.
I will bless the Lord who gives/me coun-sel;
my heart teaches me, night after night.

I have set/the Lord always be-fore me;
be-cause he is/at my right hand, I shall not fall.
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.

O gracious light, pure bright-ness
of the ever-living Father in heav-en,
O Je-sus Christ, holy and bless-ed!
we sing your praises, O God!

Now as/we come to/the setting of/the sun,
and our eyes be-hold/the vesper light,
we sing your praises, O God:
Father, Son, and Ho-ly Spi-rit.

You are worthy at all times
to be praised by happy voic-es,
O Son of God, O Giver of life,
and/to be glori-fied through all the worlds.

Psalms

Psalm 114

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



When Isra-el left E-gypt,
when the fami-ly of Ja-cob left a foreign nation be-hind,
Ju-dah be-came his sanctu-ar-y,
and Isra-el be-came his king-dom.

The sea looked and fled;
the Jor-dan Riv-er turned back.
The mountains skipped like rams,
and the hills skipped like lambs.

Why do you flee, O sea?
Why do you turn back, O Jor-dan Riv-er?
Why do you skip like rams, O moun-tains,
Or you like lambs, O hills?

Trem-ble, O earth, be-fore the Lord
be-fore the God of Ja-cob,
who turned a rock into a pool of wat-er,
a hard rock into springs of wat-er!

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 115

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Not to us, O Lord, not to us!
But to your name bring hon-or,
for/the sake of your loyal love and faithful-ness.
Why should/the nations say, Where is their God?

Our God is in heav-en!
He does what-ever he pleas-es!
Their idols are made of silver and gold
All their idols are man-made.

They have mouths, but can-not speak,
They have eyes, but can-not see,
They have ears, but can-not hear,
They have noses, but can-not smell,

They have hands, but can-not touch,
They have feet,but can-not walk.
Of what use are they?
They can-not even clear their throats.

Those who make them will end up like them,
as will every-one who trusts in them.
O Isra-el, trust in/the Lord!
He is their de-liver-er and pro-tec-tor.

O fami-ly of Aa-ron, trust in/the Lord!
He is their de-liver-er and pro-tec-tor.
You loyal follow-ers of/the Lord, trust in/the Lord!
He is their de-liver-er and pro-tec-tor.

The Lord takes no-tice of us,
he will bless the fami-ly of Isra-el,
he will bless the fami-ly of Aa-ron.
He will bless his loyal follow-ers,

He will bless both young and old.
May he in-crease your num-bers,
yours and your chil-dren!
May you be blessed by/the Lord,

He is the Cre-ator of heaven and earth!
The heavens be-long to/the Lord,
but the earth he has given to man-kind.
The dead do not praise the Lord,

Nor do any of those who de-scend
into the si-lence of death.
But we will praise the Lord
now and for-ever-more. Praise the Lord!

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 Ephesians 4:1-16

I therefore, the prisoner in the Lord, beg you to lead a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called,

with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, making every effort to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to the one hope of your calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in all. But each of us was given grace according to the measure of Christ's gift. Therefore it is said, "When he ascended on high he made captivity itself a captive; he gave gifts to his people. "(When it says, "He ascended, " what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is the same one who ascended far above all the heavens, so that he might fill all things. )The gifts he gave were that some would be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until all of us come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ. We must no longer be children, tossed to and fro and blown about by every wind of doctrine, by people's trickery, by their craftiness in deceitful scheming. But speaking the truth in love, we must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by every ligament with which it is equipped, as each part is working properly, promotes the body's growth in building itself up in love.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

A reading from Mark 3:7-19

Jesus departed with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed him;hearing all that he was doing, they came to him in great numbers from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, beyond the Jordan, and the region around Tyre and Sidon. He told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, so that they would not crush him;for he had cured many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him. Whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and shouted, "You are the Son of God!"But he sternly ordered them not to make him known.

He went up the mountain and called to him those whom he wanted, and they came to him. And he appointed twelve, whom he also named apostles, to be with him, and to be sent out to proclaim the message, and to have authority to cast out demons. So he appointed the twelve: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter);James son of Zebedee and John the brother of James (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, Sons of Thunder);and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Then he went home;

Thanks be to God!

Sunday - Song of Mary

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



My soul pro-claims the greatness of/the Lord,
my spirit re-joices in God my Sav-ior;
for he has looked with favor on his lowly serv-ant.
From this day all gener-ations will call me blessed:

the Al-mighty has done great things for me,
and _ holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in eve-ry gener-a-tion.

He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their con-ceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the low-ly.

He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent/a-way emp-ty.
He has come to/the help of his servant Isra-el,
for he has re-membered his promise of mer-cy,

The promise he made to our fath-ers,
to Abra-ham and his children for-ev-er.
My soul pro-claims the greatness of/the Lord,
my spirit re-joices in God my Sav-ior;

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.
