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 119:121-144

I do what is fair and right,
Do not a-bandon me to my op-pres-sors!
Guaran-tee the welfare of your serv-ant!
Do not let the arro-gant op-press me!

My eyes grow tired as/I wait for your de-liver-ance,
for your re-lia-ble promise to be ful-filled.
Show your servant your loyal love!
Teach me your statutes! I am your serv-ant.

Give me insight, so I can under-stand your rules.
It is time for/the Lord to act for they break your law!
For this reason I love your com-mands
more than gold, even purest gold.

For this reason I care-fully follow all your pre-cepts.
I hate all de-ceitful ac-tions.
Your rules are marvel-ous. Therefore I ob-serve them.
Your in-structions are a door-way through which light shines.

They give insight to/the un-trained.
I open my mouth and pant, be-cause I long for your com-mands.
Turn toward me and ex-tend mercy to me,
as you typi-cally do to your loyal follow-ers.

Di-rect my steps by your word!
Do not let any sin domi-nate me!
De-liver me from op-pressive men,
so I can keep your pre-cepts.

Smile on your serv-ant!
Teach me all your stat-utes!
Tears stream down from my eyes,
be-cause people do not keep your law.

You are just, O Lord,
and your judg-ments are fair.
The rules you im-pose are just,
they are abso-lutely re-lia-ble.

My zeal con-sumes me,
for my ene-mies for-get your in-struc-tions.
Your word is abso-lutely pure,
and your serv-ant loves it!

I am insig-nifi-cant and de-spised,
yet I do not for-get your pre-cepts.
Your justice en-dures for-ev-er,
and your law is re-lia-ble.

Dis-tress and hardship con-front me,
yet I find de-light in your com-mands.
Your rules re-main just.
Give me insight so I can live.

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 9:9-17

As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax booth; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he got up and followed him. And as he sat at dinner in the house, many tax collectors and sinners came and were sitting with him and his disciples. When the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?" But when he heard this, he said, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. Go and learn what this means, 'I desire mercy, not sacrifice.' For I have come to call not the righteous but sinners."

Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?" And Jesus said to them, "The wedding guests cannot mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them, can they? The days will come when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast. No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old cloak, for the patch pulls away from the cloak, and a worse tear is made. Neither is new wine put into old wineskins; otherwise, the skins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the skins are destroyed; but new wine is put into fresh wineskins, and so both are preserved."

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Friday - Our Father

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



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,
your will be done on earth
as/it is in heav-en.
Give us to-day our daily bread.

For-give us our sins
as we _ for-give those
who sin a-gainst us.
Save us from/the time of tri-al

De-liver us from e-vil.
For the king-dom, the power,
and the glory are yours,
now and for-ever A-men.

Collect of the Day

Lord Jesus Christ, you said to your apostles, "Peace I give to you; my peace I leave with you:" Regard not our sins, but the faith of your Church, and give to us the peace and unity of that heavenly city, where with the Father and the Holy Spirit you live and reign, now and for ever.

Amen.

A Collect for Fridays

Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

Prayer for Mission

Lord Jesus Christ, you stretched out your arms of love on the hard wood of the cross that everyone might come within the reach of your saving embrace: So clothe us in your Spirit that we, reaching forth our hands in love, may bring those who do not know you to the knowledge and love of you; for the honor of your Name.

Amen.
