Invitation

Tuesday - Easter Invitation

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Alle-lu-ia! Christ is ris-en.
The Lord is risen in-deed. Alle-lu-ia!
O give thanks to/the Lord, and call up-on his Name;
make known his deeds a-mong the peo-ples.

Thus says the high and lofty One
who in-habits e-terni-ty,
whose name is Ho-ly,
I dwell in/the high and holy place

and al-so with/the one who has a con-trite and hum-ble spi-rit,
to re-vive the spirit of/the hum-ble and the heart of/the con-trite.
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.

Tuesday - Christ Our Passover

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Alle-lu-ia! Christ our Pass-over has been sacri-ficed for us;
there-fore let us keep the feast,
Not with old leaven, the leaven of mal-ice and e-vil,
but with/the un-leavened bread of sin-ceri-ty and truth. Alle-lu-ia!

Christ being raised from/the dead will never die a-gain;
death no longer has do-minion over him.
The death he died, he died to sin, once for all;
but the life he lives, he lives to God.

So al-so con-sider your-selves dead to sin,
and a-live to God in Je-sus Christ our Lord. Alle-lu-ia!
Christ has been raised from/the dead,
the first fruits of those who have fallen a-sleep.

For since by a man came death,
by a man has come al-so the resur-rec-tion of/the dead.
For as in A-dam all die,
so in Christ shall all be made a-live. Alle-lu-ia!

Psalms

Psalm 78:1-39

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



Pay at-tention, my people, to my in-struc-tion!
Lis-ten to/the words I speak!
I will sing a song that im-parts wis-dom;
I will make in-sightful obser-vations a-bout the past.

What we have heard and learned,
that which our an-cestors have told us,
we will not hide from their de-scend-ants.
We will tell the next gener-a-tion

a-bout the Lord's praise-worthy acts,
a-bout his strength and the a-mazing things he has done.
He es-tablished a rule in Ja-cob;
he set up a law in Isra-el.

He com-manded our an-ces-tors
to make his deeds known to their de-scend-ants,
so that the next gener-a-tion,
children yet to be born, might know a-bout them.

They will grow up and tell their de-scendants a-bout them.
Then they will place their confi-dence in God.
They will not for-get the works of God,
and they will o-bey his com-mands.

Then they will not be like their an-ces-tors,
who were a stubborn and re-bel-lious gener-a-tion,
a gener-ation that was not com-mit-ted
nor _ faithful to their God.

The E-phraim-ites were armed with bows,
but they re-treated in/the day of bat-tle.
They did not keep their cove-nant with God,
and they re-fused to o-bey his law.

They for-got what he had done,
the a-mazing things he had shown them.
He did a-mazing things in/the sight of their an-ces-tors,
in the land of Egypt, in/the re-gion of Zo-an.

He di-vided the sea and led them a-cross it;
he made the water stand in a heap.
He led them with a cloud by day,
and with/the light of a fire all night long.

He broke open rocks in/the wilder-ness,
and gave them e-nough water to fill the depths of/the sea.
He caused streams to flow from/the rock,
and made the water flow like riv-ers.

Yet they con-tinued to sin a-gainst him,
and re-belled a-gainst the Most High in/the de-sert.
They will-fully chal-lenged God
by asking for food to satis-fy their appe-tite.

They in-sulted God, say-ing,
Is God really able to give us food in/the wilder-ness?
Yes, he struck a rock and streams gushed forth.
But can he al-so give us food?

Will he pro-vide meat for his peo-ple?
When the Lord heard this, he was furi-ous.
A fire broke out a-gainst Ja-cob,
and his an-ger flared up a-gainst Isra-el,

be-cause they did not have faith in God,
and did not trust his a-bili-ty to de-liver them.
He gave a com-mand to/the clouds a-bove,
and opened the doors in/the sky.

He rained down man-na for them to eat;
he gave them the grain of heav-en.
Man ate the food of/the mighty one.
He sent them more than e-nough to eat.

He brought the east wind through the sky,
and by his strength led forth the south wind.
He rained down meat on them like dust,
birds as numer-ous as the sand on/the sea-shore.

He caused them to fall in/the middle of their camp,
even all a-round their homes.
They ate un-til they were be-yond full;
he gave them what they de-sired.

They were not yet filled up,
their food was still in their mouths,
when the anger of God flared up a-gainst them.
He killed some of/the strongest of them;

he brought the young men of Isra-el to their knees.
De-spite all this, they con-tinued to sin,
and did not trust him to do a-mazing things.
So he caused them to die un-satis-fied and filled with ter-ror.

When he struck them down, they sought his fa-vor;
they turned back and longed for God.
They re-membered that God was their pro-tec-tor,
and that God Most High was their de-liver-er.

But they de-ceived him with their words, and lied to him.
They were not really com-mitted to him,
and they were un-faithful to his cove-nant.
Yet he is com-passion-ate.

He for-gives sin and does not de-stroy.
He often holds back his anger, and does not stir up his fu-ry.
He re-membered that they were made of flesh,
and were like wind that blows past and does not re-turn.

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 Leviticus 26:1-20

You shall make for yourselves no idols and erect no carved images or pillars, and you shall not place figured stones in your land, to worship at them; for I am the LORD your God. You shall keep my sabbaths and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD. If you follow my statutes and keep my commandments and observe them faithfully, I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its produce, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit. Your threshing shall overtake the vintage, and the vintage shall overtake the sowing; you shall eat your bread to the full, and live securely in your land. And I will grant peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and no one shall make you afraid; I will remove dangerous animals from the land, and no sword shall go through your land. You shall give chase to your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword. Five of you shall give chase to a hundred, and a hundred of you shall give chase to ten thousand; your enemies shall fall before you by the sword. I will look with favor upon you and make you fruitful and multiply you; and I will maintain my covenant with you. You shall eat old grain long stored, and you shall have to clear out the old to make way for the new. I will place my dwelling in your midst, and I shall not abhor you. And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and you shall be my people. I am the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be their slaves no more; I have broken the bars of your yoke and made you walk erect.

But if you will not obey me, and do not observe all these commandments, if you spurn my statutes, and abhor my ordinances, so that you will not observe all my commandments, and you break my covenant, I in turn will do this to you: I will bring terror on you; consumption and fever that waste the eyes and cause life to pine away. You shall sow your seed in vain, for your enemies shall eat it. I will set my face against you, and you shall be struck down by your enemies; your foes shall rule over you, and you shall flee though no one pursues you. And if in spite of this you will not obey me, I will continue to punish you sevenfold for your sins. I will break your proud glory, and I will make your sky like iron and your earth like copper. Your strength shall be spent to no purpose: your land shall not yield its produce, and the trees of the land shall not yield their fruit.

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Tuesday - First Song of Isaiah

Tenor     Soprano     Response     Cantor     Bass     Alto     PDF     All     



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
from/the springs of sal-va-tion.
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.

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 Matthew 13:18-23

"Hear then the parable of the sower. When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in the heart; this is what was sown on the path. As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is the one who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; yet such a person has no root, but endures only for a while, and when trouble or persecution arises on account of the word, that person immediately falls away. As for what was sown among thorns, this is the one who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the lure of wealth choke the word, and it yields nothing. But as for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."

Here ends the reading.
Thanks be to God!

Almighty God, whose Son Jesus Christ in his earthly life shared our toil and hallowed our labor: Be present with your people where they work; make those who carry on the industries and commerce of this land responsive to your will; and give to us all a pride in what we do, and a just return for our labor; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.

Amen.

O God, the author of peace and lover of concord, to know you is eternal life and to serve you is perfect freedom: Defend us, your humble servants, in all assaults of our enemies; that we, surely trusting in your defense, may not fear the power of any adversaries; through the might of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

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.
