Evening Prayer - Tuesday January 11 2022




Confession


Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed,
by what we have done,
and by what we have left undone.
We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.
We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will,
and walk in your ways,
to the glory of your Name.

Amen

May Almighty God have mercy on us,
forgive us all our sins
through our Lord Jesus Christ,
strengthen us in all goodness,
and by the power of the Holy Spirit
keep us in eternal life.

Amen






Tuesday - Evensong Invitation


Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Grace to you and peace from God our Fa-ther
and from/the Lord Je-sus Christ.
Wor-ship the Lord in/the beau-ty 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 eve-ning sacri-fice.
I will bless the Lord who gives me coun-sel;
my heart teaches me, night after night.

I have set the Lord al-ways 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

O gracious Light,
pure brightness of the
everliving Father in heaven.
O Jesus, Christ, holy and blessed!

Now as we come to the setting of the sun,
and our eyes behold the vesper light,
we sing your praises, O God:
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

You are worthy at all times
to be praised by happy voices,
O Son of God, O Giver of life,
and to be glorified through all the worlds.



Psalm 10


Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Why, Lord, do you stand far off?
Why do you pay no at-ten-tion
during times of trou-ble?
The wicked arro-gantly chase the op-pressed;

the op-pressed are trapped
by the schemes the wicked have dreamed up.
Yes, the wicked man boasts
be-cause he gets what he wants;

the one who robs oth-ers
cur-ses and re-jects the Lord.
The wicked man is so arro-gant
he always thinks, God won't hold me ac-counta-ble;

He does not care.
He is se-cure at all times.
He has no re-gard for your com-mands;
he dis-dains all his ene-mies.

He says to him-self,
I will never be shak-en,
be-cause I ex-peri-ence no ca-lami-ty.
His mouth is full of curs-es

and de-ceptive, harm-ful words;
his tongue injures and de-stroys.
He waits in ambush near the vil-lag-es;
in hidden places he kills the inno-cent.

His eyes look for some un-fortun-ate vic-tim.
He lies in ambush in/a hid-den place,
like a lion in a thick-et;
he lies in ambush, waiting to catch the op-pressed;

He catches the op-pressed
by pull-ing in his net.
His victims are crushed and beaten down;
they are trapped in his sturdy net.

He says to him-self, God over-looks it;
he does not pay at-ten-tion;
he will never no-tice.
Rise up, Lord! O God, strike him down!

Do/not for-get the op-pressed!
Why does the wicked man re-ject God?
He says to him-self, You will not hold me ac-counta-ble.
But you have taken no-tice,

For you always see one
who in-flicts pain and suffer-ing.
The un-fortun-ate victim en-trusts his cause to you;
You de-liver the fath-er-less.

Break the arm of/the wicked and evil man!
Hold him ac-counta-ble for his wicked deeds,
which he thought you would not dis-cov-er.
The Lord rules for-ev-er!

The na-tions are driven out of his land.
Lord, you have heard the re-quest of/the op-pressed;
you make them feel se-cure
be-cause you list-en to their prayer.

You de-fend the fath-er-less
and you care for/the op-pressed,
so that these wicked mere mor-tals
may no longer terror-ize them.

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 11


Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



In/the Lord I have taken shel-ter.
How can you say to me,
Flee to/a mountain like a bird!
For look, the wicked pre-pare their bows,

they put their arrows on/the strings,
to shoot in/the darkness at/the moral-ly up-right.
When the foun-dations are de-stroyed,
what can the god-ly ac-com-plish?

The Lord is in his holy tem-ple;
the Lord's throne is in heav-en.
His eyes watch; his eyes ex-amine all peo-ple.
The Lord ap-proves of/the god-ly,

but he hates the wick-ed
and those who love to do vio-lence.
May he rain down burn-ing coals
and brim-stone on/the wick-ed!

A whirl-wind is what they de-serve!
Certain-ly the Lord is just;
he re-wards god-ly deeds;
the up-right will ex-peri-ence his 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.


Readings



A reading from Hebrews 2:1-10


Therefore we must pay greater attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. For if the message declared through angels was valid, and every transgression or disobedience received a just penalty, how can we escape if we neglect so great a salvation? It was declared at first through the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard him, while God added his testimony by signs and wonders and various miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, distributed according to his will.

Now God did not subject the coming world, about which we are speaking, to angels. But someone has testified somewhere, "What are human beings that you are mindful of them, or mortals, that you care for them? You have made them for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned them with glory and honor, subjecting all things under their feet. " Now in subjecting all things to them, God left nothing outside their control. As it is, we do not yet see everything in subjection to them, but we do see Jesus, who for a little while was made lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.

It was fitting that God, for whom and through whom all things exist, in bringing many children to glory, should make the pioneer of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Tuesday - Song to the Lamb


Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Splendor and honor and king-ly power
are yours by right, O Lord our God,
For you cre-ated every-thing that is,
and by your will they were cre-ated and have their be-ing;

And yours by right, O Lamb that was slain,
for with your blood you have re-deemed for God,
From eve-ry fami-ly, lan-guage, people, and na-tion,
a kingdom of priests to serve our God.

And so, to him who sits up-on/the throne,
and to Je-sus Christ the Lamb,
Be worship and praise, do-min-ion and splen-dor,
for-ever 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.


A reading from John 1:19-28


This is the testimony given by John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you? "He confessed and did not deny it, but confessed, "I am not the Messiah. "And they asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah? " He said, "I am not. " "Are you the prophet? " He answered, "No. "Then they said to him, "Who are you? Let us have an answer for those who sent us. What do you say about yourself? "He said, "I am the voice of one crying out in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord, '" as the prophet Isaiah said. Now they had been sent from the Pharisees. They asked him, "Why then are you baptizing if you are neither the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the prophet? "John answered them, "I baptize with water. Among you stands one whom you do not know, the one who is coming after me; I am not worthy to untie the thong of his sandal. "This took place in Bethany across the Jordan where John was baptizing.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Tuesday - Third Song of Isaiah


Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



A-rise, shine, for your light has come,
and the glory of/the Lord has dawned up-on you.
For/be-hold, darkness covers the land;
deep gloom en-shrouds the peo-ples.

But over you the Lord will rise,
and his glory will/ap-pear up-on you.
Nations will stream to your light,
and kings to/the brightness of your dawn-ing.

Your gates will always be o-pen;
by day or night they will never be shut.
They will call you, The City of/the Lord,
The Zion of/the Holy One of Is-ra-el.

Vio-lence will/no more be heard in your land,
ruin or de-struction with-in your bor-ders.
You will call your walls, Sal-va-tion,
and all your por-tals, Praise.

The sun will/no more be your light by day;
by night you will/not need the brightness of/the moon.
The Lord will be your ever-last-ing light,
and your God will be your glo-ry.

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.
