Saturday - Epiphany Invitation

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Nations shall come to your light,
and kings to/the brightness of your ris-ing.
I/will give you as/a light to/the na-tions,
that my sal-vation may reach to/the end of/the earth.

From the rising of/the sun to its set-ting
my Name shall be great a-mong the na-tions,
and in every place
in-cense shall be offered to my Name,

and a pure offer-ing: for my Name shall be great
a-mong the nations says the Lord of Hosts.
Lord, o-pen our lips.
And our mouth 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.

Saturday - 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 30

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



I will praise you, O Lord, for you lifted me up,
and did not/al-low my ene-mies to gloat over me.
O Lord my God, I cried out/to you and you healed me.
O Lord, you pulled me up from She-ol;

you rescued me from/a-mong those de-scending into the grave.
Sing to/the Lord, you faithful follow-ers of his;
give thanks to his holy name.
For his anger lasts only a brief mo-ment,

and his good favor re-stores one's life.
One may ex-peri-ence sorrow during the night,
but joy ar-rives in/the morn-ing.
In my self-confi-dence I said, I will never be shak-en.

O Lord, in your good favor you made me se-cure.
Then you re-jected me and I was terri-fied.
To you, O Lord, I cried out;
I begged the Lord for mer-cy:

What profit is there in taking my life,
in my de-scending into the Pit?
Can/the dust of/the grave praise you?
Can it/de-clare your loy-al-ty?

Hear, O Lord, and have mercy on me!
O Lord my God, de-liver me!
Then you turned my/la-ment into danc-ing;
you re-moved my sack-cloth

You covered me with joy.
So now my heart will sing to you
and I will not be si-lent;
O Lord my God, I will always give thanks to you.

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 32

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



How blessed is the one
whose re-bellious acts are for-giv-en,
and whose sin is par-doned!
How blessed is the one whose wrong-doing the Lord does not pun-ish,

in whose spirit there is no de-ceit.
When I re-fused to con-fess my sin,
my whole body wasted a-way,
while I groaned in pain all day long.

For day and night you tor-mented me;
you tried to/de-stroy me in/the in-tense heat of sum-mer.
Then I con-fessed my sin;
I no longer covered up my wrong-do-ing.

I said, I/will con-fess my re-bellious acts to/the Lord.
And then you for-gave my sins.
So every one of your faithful follow-ers should pray to you
while there is a window of oppor-tuni-ty.

Certain-ly when the surging waters rise,
They will not reach to them.
You are my hiding place;
you pro-tect me from all dis-tress.

You sur-round me with shouts of joy
from those cele-brat-ing de-liver-ance.
I will in-struct and teach you
a-bout how you should live.

I will ad-vise you as/I look you in/the eye.
Do not be like an unin-telli-gent horse or mule,
which will not o-bey you
un-less they are con-trolled by a bridle and bit.

An evil person suffers much pain,
but the Lord's faithful-ness over-whelms the one who trusts in him.
Re-joice in/the Lord and be happy, you who are god-ly!
Shout/for joy, all you who are moral-ly up-right!

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 Genesis 12:9-13:1

And Abram journeyed on by stages toward the Negeb.

Now there was a famine in the land. So Abram went down to Egypt to reside there as an alien, for the famine was severe in the land. When he was about to enter Egypt, he said to his wife Sarai, "I know well that you are a woman beautiful in appearance;and when the Egyptians see you, they will say, 'This is his wife'; then they will kill me, but they will let you live. Say you are my sister, so that it may go well with me because of you, and that my life may be spared on your account. "

When Abram entered Egypt the Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful. When the officials of Pharaoh saw her, they praised her to Pharaoh. And the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house. And for her sake he dealt well with Abram; and he had sheep, oxen, male donkeys, male and female slaves, female donkeys, and camels. But the LORD afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife. So Pharaoh called Abram, and said, "What is this you have done to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife? Why did you say, 'She is my sister, ' so that I took her for my wife? Now then, here is your wife, take her, and be gone. "And Pharaoh gave his men orders concerning him; and they set him on the way, with his wife and all that he had.

So Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the Negeb.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Saturday - You are God

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



You are God: we praise you;
You are the Lord; we ac-claim you;
You are the e-ter-nal Fath-er:
All cre-a-tion wor-ships you.

To you all an-gels, all the powers of heav-en,
Cher-u-bim and Ser-a-phim, sing in end-less praise:
Holy, ho-ly, holy Lord, God of power and might,
heav-en and earth are full of your glo-ry.

The glori-ous compan-y of a-postles praises you.
The no-ble fellow-ship of proph-ets praises you.
The white-robed army of mar-tyrs praises you.
Through-out the world the holy Church ac-claims you;

Fath-er, of majes-ty un-bound-ed,
your true and only Son, worthy of all wor-ship,
and the Ho-ly Spi-rit, advo-cate and guide.
Three in one, we praise you for ev-er.

You, Christ, are the king of glo-ry,
the e-ter-nal Son of/the Fath-er.
When you be-came man to set us free
you did not shun the Vir-gin's womb.

You over-came the sting of death
and o-pened the kingdom of heaven to all be-liev-ers.
You are seated at God's right hand in glo-ry.
We be-lieve that you will come and be our judge.

Come then, Lord, and help your peo-ple,
bought with/the price of your own blood,
and bring us with your saints
to glo-ry ever-last-ing.

A reading from John 4:27-42

Just then his disciples came. They were astonished that he was speaking with a woman, but no one said, "What do you want? " or, "Why are you speaking with her? "Then the woman left her water jar and went back to the city. She said to the people, "Come and see a man who told me everything I have ever done! He cannot be the Messiah, can he? "They left the city and were on their way to him. Meanwhile the disciples were urging him, "Rabbi, eat something. "But he said to them, "I have food to eat that you do not know about. "So the disciples said to one another, "Surely no one has brought him something to eat? "Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent me and to complete his work. Do you not say, 'Four months more, then comes the harvest'? But I tell you, look around you, and see how the fields are ripe for harvesting. The reaper is already receiving wages and is gathering fruit for eternal life, so that sower and reaper may rejoice together. For here the saying holds true, 'One sows and another reaps. 'I sent you to reap that for which you did not labor. Others have labored, and you have entered into their labor. "Many Samaritans from that city believed in him because of the woman's testimony, "He told me everything I have ever done. "So when the Samaritans came to him, they asked him to stay with them; and he stayed there two days. And many more believed because of his word. They said to the woman, "It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this is truly the Savior of the world. "

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Surely, it/is God who saves me;
I/will trust in him and not be/a-fraid.
For/the Lord is my stronghold and my sure de-fense,
and he will be my Sav-ior.

Therefore you shall draw water with re-joic-ing

And/on that day you shall say,
Give thanks to/the Lord and call up-on his Name;

Make his deeds known/a-mong the peo-ples;
see that they re-member that his Name is ex-alt-ed.
Sing the praises of/the Lord,
for he has done great things,

And this/is known in all the world.
Cry/a-loud, in-habit-ants of Zion, ring out your joy,
for/the great one in/the midst of you
is the Holy One of Is-ra-el.
