Invitation

Sunday - 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.

Sunday - Venite

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Come, let's sing to/the Lord;
let's shout for joy to/the Rock of our sal-va-tion.
Let's come be-fore his presence with thanks-giv-ing
and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.

For the Lord is/a great God,
and a great King a-bove all gods.
In his hand are the caverns of/the earth,
and the heights of/the hills are his al-so.

The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands have molded the dry land.
Come, let's bow down, and bend the knee,
and kneel be-fore the Lord our Mak-er.

For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pas-ture
and the sheep of his hand.
Oh, that to-day you would hearken to his voice!

Psalms

Psalm 63

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



O God, you are my God!
I long for you! My soul thirsts for you,
my flesh yearns for you,
in/a dry and parched land where there/is no wat-er.

Yes, in/the sanctu-ary I have seen you,
and witnessed your power and splen-dor.
Be-cause your loyal love is better than life it-self,
my lips will praise you al-ways.

For this rea-son
I will praise you while I live;
and in your holy name
I will lift up my hands in thanks.

As if with choice meat you satis-fy my soul.
My mouth joyful-ly praises you,
When-ever I re-member you on my bed,
and I think/a-bout you during the night-time hours.

For you are my de-liver-er;
Under your wings I re-joice.
My soul pur-sues you;
your right hand up-holds me.

Ene-mies seek to/de-stroy my life,
but they will de-scend into the depths of/the earth.
Each one will be handed over to/the sword;
their corpses will be eaten by jack-als.

But the king will re-joice in God;
every-one who takes oaths in his name will boast,
For the mouths of those who speak lies
will be shut up and si-lenced.

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 98

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Sing to/the Lord a new song,
for he per-forms a-mazing deeds!
By his right hand and his mighty arm
he ac-complish-es de-liver-ance.

The Lord demon-strates his power to de-liv-er;
in/the sight of/the nations he re-veals his jus-tice.
He re-mains loyal and faithful to/the fami-ly of Isra]-el.
All the ends of/the earth see our God de-liver us.

Shout out praises to/the Lord, all the earth!
Break out in/a joyful shout and sing!
Sing to/the Lord ac-com-panied by a harp,
ac-com-panied by a harp and the sound of mu-sic!

With trumpets and the blaring of/the ram's horn,
shout out praises be-fore the king, the Lord!
Let the sea and every-thing in it shout,
a-long with/the world and those who live in it!

Let the rivers clap their hands!
Let the mountains sing in uni-son be-fore the Lord!
For he comes to judge the earth!
He judges the world fairly, and the nations in/a just man-ner.

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 13:2-18

Now Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold. He journeyed on by stages from the Negeb as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai, to the place where he had made an altar at the first; and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

Now Lot, who went with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents, so that the land could not support both of them living together; for their possessions were so great that they could not live together, and there was strife between the herders of Abram's livestock and the herders of Lot's livestock. At that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land. Then Abram said to Lot, "Let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herders and my herders; for we are kindred. Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me. If you take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if you take the right hand, then I will go to the left."

Lot looked about him, and saw that the plain of the Jordan was well watered everywhere like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, in the direction of Zoar; this was before the LORD had destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. So Lot chose for himself all the plain of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward; thus they separated from each other. Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled among the cities of the Plain and moved his tent as far as Sodom. Now the people of Sodom were wicked, great sinners against the LORD.

The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, "Raise your eyes now, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward; for all the land that you see I will give to you and to your offspring forever. I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth; so that if one can count the dust of the earth, your offspring also can be counted. Rise up, walk through the length and the breadth of the land, for I will give it to you." So Abram moved his tent, and came and settled by the oaks of Mamre, which are at Hebron; and there he built an altar to the LORD.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Sunday - Second Song of Isaiah

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Seek/the Lord while he wills to/be found;
call/up-on him when he draws near.
Let/the wicked for-sake their ways
and the evil ones their thoughts;

And let them turn to/the Lord,
and he will have com-pas-sion,
Let them/re-turn/to our God,
for he will rich-ly par-don.

For my thoughts are/not your thoughts,
nor your ways my ways, says/the Lord.
For as/the heavens are higher than the earth,
so/are my ways higher than your ways,

and my thoughts than your thoughts.
For/as rain and snow fall from/the heav-ens
and re-turn not/a-gain,
but wat-er the whole earth,

Bring-ing forth life
and giving a-bun-dant growth
And seed for re-plan-ting
and bread/and fruit for eat-ing,

So/is my word that goes forth from my mouth;
it will not/re-turn/to me emp-ty;
But/it will ac-complish that which I have pur-posed,
and prosper in that for which I sent it.

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 Mark 7:31-37

Then he returned from the region of Tyre, and went by way of Sidon towards the Sea of Galilee, in the region of the Decapolis. They brought to him a deaf man who had an impediment in his speech; and they begged him to lay his hand on him. He took him aside in private, away from the crowd, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spat and touched his tongue. Then looking up to heaven, he sighed and said to him, "Ephphatha," that is, "Be opened." And immediately his ears were opened, his tongue was released, and he spoke plainly. Then Jesus ordered them to tell no one; but the more he ordered them, the more zealously they proclaimed it. They were astounded beyond measure, saying, "He has done everything well; he even makes the deaf to hear and the mute to speak."

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!
