00:17When a wicked person turns from the wickedness he has committed, and does what is just and right, he will
00:26preserve his life.
00:30For I am aware of my rebellious acts, I am forever conscious of my sin.
00:39Hide your face from my sins, wipe away all my guilt.
00:47The sacrifices God desires are a humble spirit, O God, a humble and repentant heart you will not reject.
01:01Dearly beloved brothers and sisters, the scripture moves us in sundry places to acknowledge and confess our many sins and
01:10wickedness.
01:12We should not justify nor hide them before the face of Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, but confess them with
01:20a humble, lowly, penitent and obedient heart.
01:24To the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same, by his infinite goodness and mercy.
01:35Although we ought always to humbly acknowledge our sins before God, we should do this particularly when we assemble and
01:43meet together,
01:44to give thanks for the great benefits we have received at his hands.
01:48To give him most worthy praise, to hear his most holy word, and to ask those things which are truly
01:57necessary as well for the body as the soul.
02:02Therefore I pray and ask you, who are present here today, to accompany me with a pure heart and humble
02:09voice to the throne of the heavenly grace, as we say together.
02:16Almighty and most merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
02:23We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts.
02:29We have offended against your holy laws.
02:32We have failed to do those things which we ought to have done, and we have done things which we
02:39ought not to have done.
02:44But you, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable sinners.
02:49Spare those, O God, who confess their faults.
02:53Restore those who are truly penitent, according to your promises declared to mankind in Christ Jesus our Lord.
03:03Grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to
03:12the glory of your holy name. Amen.
03:18Grant, we beseech you, merciful Lord, to your faithful people, pardon and peace, that they may be cleansed from all
03:26their sins, and serve you with a quiet mind.
03:30Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
03:38Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be your name.
03:43Your kingdom come, your will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.
03:49Give us this day our daily bread.
03:52Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
03:59Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
04:05For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
04:15O Lord, open our lips, and our mouths shall sing out your praise.
04:23O God, make speed to save us.
04:27O Lord, make haste to help us.
04:33Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
04:39As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
04:45Amen.
04:48Praise the Lord.
04:50The Lord's name be praised.
04:57Psalm 65
05:00Praise awaits you, O God, in Zion.
05:03Vows made to you are fulfilled.
05:06You hear prayers.
05:08All people approach you.
05:11Our record of sins overwhelms me, but you forgive our acts of rebellion.
05:17How blessed is the one whom you choose and allow to live in your palace courts.
05:23May we be satisfied with the good things of your house, your holy palace.
05:30You answer our prayers by performing awesome acts of deliverance, O God, our Saviour.
05:37All the ends of the earth trust in you, as well as those living across the wide seas.
05:44You created the mountains by your power and demonstrated your great strength.
05:51You calm the raging seas and the roaring waves, as well as the commotion made by the nations.
05:59Even those living in the most remote areas are awestruck by your acts.
06:05You cause those living in the east and west to praise you.
06:10You visit the earth and give it rain.
06:13You make it rich and fertile.
06:16God's streams are full of water.
06:19You provide grain for them, for you have prepared the earth in this way.
06:25You saturate its furrows and soak its ploughed ground.
06:30With rain showers, you soften its soil and make its crops grow.
06:36You crown the year with your good blessings, and you leave abundance in your wake.
06:42The pastures in the wilderness glisten with moisture, and the hills are clothed with joy.
06:50The meadows are clothed with sheep, and the valleys are covered with grain.
06:56They shout joyfully.
06:58Yes, they sing.
07:00Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
07:04As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be.
07:08World without end.
07:11Amen.
07:14Psalm 66
07:17Shout out praise to God all the earth.
07:20Sing praises about the majesty of his reputation.
07:24Give him the honour he deserves.
07:28Say to God, how awesome are your deeds.
07:30Because of your great power, your enemies cower in fear before you.
07:37All the earth worships you and sings praises to you.
07:41They sing praises to your name.
07:44Come and witness God's exploits.
07:47His acts on behalf of people are awesome.
07:51He turned the sea into dry land, and they passed through the river on foot.
07:56Let us rejoice in him there.
08:00He rules by his power forever.
08:04He watches the nations.
08:06Stubborn rebels should not exalt themselves.
08:12Praise our God, you nations.
08:14Loudly proclaim his praise.
08:18He preserves our lives, and does not allow our feet to slip.
08:23For you, O God, tested us.
08:26You purified us like refined silver.
08:30You led us into a trap.
08:32You caused us to suffer.
08:35You allowed men to ride over our heads,
08:39and we passed through fire and water.
08:41But you brought us out into a wide open place.
08:46I will enter your temple with burnt sacrifices.
08:50I will fulfill the vows I made to you,
08:53which my lips uttered and my mouth spoke while I was in trouble.
08:59I will offer up to you fattened animals as burnt sacrifices,
09:04along with the smell of sacrificial rams.
09:07I will offer cattle and goats.
09:10Come, listen, all you who are loyal to God.
09:14I will declare what he has done for me.
09:17I cried out to him for help and praised him with my tongue.
09:22If I had harbored sin in my heart,
09:25the Lord would not have listened.
09:29However God heard, he listened to my prayer.
09:34God deserves praise,
09:36for he did not reject my prayer
09:38or abandon his love for me.
09:42Glory be to the Father,
09:44and to the Son,
09:45and to the Holy Spirit,
09:47as it was in the beginning,
09:49is now, and ever shall be,
09:51world without end.
09:53Amen.
09:57Psalm 67
10:02May God show us his favour
10:04and bless us.
10:05May he smile upon us.
10:08Then those living on earth
10:10will know what you are like.
10:11All nations will know
10:13how you deliver your people.
10:16Let the nations thank you, O God.
10:19Let all the nations thank you.
10:21Let foreigners rejoice and celebrate,
10:24for you execute justice among the nations
10:27and govern the people living on earth.
10:31Let the nations thank you, O God.
10:33Let all the nations thank you.
10:36The earth yields its crops.
10:38May God, our God, bless us.
10:41May God bless us.
10:42Then all the ends of the earth
10:44will give him the honour he deserves.
10:49Glory be to the Father,
10:50and to the Son,
10:51and to the Holy Spirit,
10:52as it was in the beginning,
10:55is now, and ever shall be,
10:58world without end.
10:59Amen.
11:05The Book of Job, Chapter 31
11:11I have made a covenant with my eyes.
11:13How then could I entertain thoughts
11:16against a virgin?
11:19What then would be one's lot from God above,
11:22one's heritage from the Almighty on high?
11:25Is it not misfortune to the unjust,
11:28and disaster for those who work iniquity?
11:32Does he not see my ways,
11:35and count all my steps?
11:38If I have walked in falsehood,
11:40and if my foot has hastened to deceit,
11:43let him weigh me with honest scales.
11:46Then God will discover my integrity.
11:50If my footsteps have strayed from the way,
11:53if my heart has gone after my eyes,
11:57or if anything has defiled my hands,
12:00then let me sow,
12:01and let another eat,
12:03and let my crops be uprooted.
12:08If my heart has been enticed by a woman,
12:11and I have lain in wait at my neighbour's door,
12:16then let my wife turn the millstone for another man,
12:20and may other men have sexual relations with her.
12:25For I would have committed a shameful act,
12:28an iniquity to be judged.
12:32For it is a fire that devours even to destruction,
12:35and it would uproot all my harvest.
12:39If I have disregarded the right of my male servants,
12:42or my female servants,
12:44when they dispute it with me,
12:47what then will I do,
12:49when God confronts me in judgment,
12:52when he intervenes,
12:54how will I respond to him?
12:58Did not the one who made me in the womb make them?
13:01Did not the same one form us both in the womb?
13:06If I had refused to give the poor what they desired,
13:09or caused the eyes of the widow to fail,
13:13if I ate any morsel of bread myself,
13:15and did not share any of it with the orphans,
13:19but from my youth I raised the orphan like a father,
13:23and from my mother's womb I guided the widow.
13:28If I have seen anyone about to perish for lack of clothing,
13:32or a poor man without a coat,
13:34whose heart did not bless me
13:36as he warmed himself with the fleece of my sheep,
13:40if I have raised my hand to vote against the orphan,
13:43when I saw my support in the court,
13:46then let my arm fall from my shoulder,
13:49let my arm be broken off at the socket,
13:53for the calamity from God was a terror to me,
13:56and by reason of his majesty I was powerless.
14:03If I have put my confidence in gold,
14:06or said to pure gold,
14:08you are my security,
14:11if I have rejoiced because of the extent of my wealth,
14:14or because of the great wealth my hand had gained,
14:18if I looked at the sun when it was shining,
14:21and the moon advancing as a precious thing,
14:24so that my heart was secretly enticed,
14:28and my hand threw them a kiss from my mouth,
14:31then this also would be iniquity to be judged,
14:35for I would have been false to God above.
14:40If I have rejoiced over the misfortune of my enemy,
14:43or exulted because calamity found him,
14:47I have not even permitted my mouth to sin
14:50by asking for his life through a curse.
14:54If the members of my household have never said,
14:56if only there was someone
14:58who had not been satisfied from jobs meet.
15:04But no stranger had to spend the night outside,
15:07for I opened my doors to the traveller.
15:10If I have covered my transgressions as men do
15:14by hiding iniquity in my heart,
15:17because I was terrified of the Greek multitude,
15:20and the contempt of families terrified me,
15:24that I remained silent and would not go outdoors.
15:28If only I had someone to hear me.
15:31Here is my signature.
15:33Let the Almighty answer me.
15:36If only I had an indictment that my accuser had written.
15:41Surely I would wear it proudly on my shoulder.
15:44I would bind it on me like a crown.
15:47I would give him an accounting of my steps.
15:51Like a prince I would approach him.
15:55If my land cried out against me,
15:58and all its furrows wept together.
16:00If I have eaten its produce without pain,
16:04or caused the death of its owners,
16:06then let thorns sprout up in place of wheat,
16:10and in place of barley, weeds.
16:14Here the words of Job are ended.
16:19This is the word of the Lord.
16:21Thanks be to God.
16:34Mary said,
16:48For from now on all generations will call me blessed,
16:53because he who is mighty has done great things for me,
16:57and holy is his name.
16:59From generation to generation
17:02he is merciful to those who fear him.
17:06He has demonstrated power with his arm.
17:09He has scattered those whose pride wells up
17:12from the sheer arrogance of their hearts.
17:15He has brought down the mighty from their thrones,
17:18and has lifted up those of lowly position.
17:22He has filled the hungry with good things,
17:25and has sent the rich away empty.
17:29He has helped his servant Israel,
17:31remembering his mercy,
17:33as he promised to our ancestors,
17:36to Abraham,
17:37and to his descendants for ever.
17:41Glory be to the Father,
17:43and to the Son,
17:44and to the Holy Spirit,
17:46as it was in the beginning,
17:48is now,
17:49and ever shall be,
17:51world without end.
17:53Amen.
18:02The Gospel according to St. Matthew chapter 5
18:06Again, you have heard it that it was said
18:09to an older generation,
18:12Do not break an oath,
18:13but fulfil your vows to the Lord.
18:17But I say to you,
18:18do not take oaths at all,
18:20not by heaven,
18:22because it is the throne of God,
18:24and not by earth,
18:26because it is his footstool,
18:28and not by Jerusalem,
18:30because it is the city of the great King.
18:34Do not take an oath by your head,
18:36because you are not able to make one hair white or black.
18:40Let your word be yes, yes,
18:42or no, no.
18:44More than this is from the evil one.
18:48You have knowledge that it was said,
18:50an eye for an eye,
18:51and a tooth for a tooth.
18:54But I say to you,
18:55do not make use of force against an evil man.
18:59But to him who gives you a blow
19:01to the right side of your face,
19:02let the left be turned.
19:05If any man goes to law with you,
19:07and takes away your coat,
19:08do not keep back your robe from him.
19:11And whoever makes you go one mile,
19:14go with him too.
19:16Give to him who comes with a request,
19:19and keep not your property from him
19:22who would for a time make use of it.
19:26You have knowledge that it was said,
19:28have love for your neighbour,
19:29and hate the one who is against you.
19:32But I say to you,
19:33have love for those who are against you,
19:36and make prayer for those who are cruel to you,
19:40so that you may be the sons of your Father in heaven.
19:43For his Son gives light to the evil and to the good,
19:47and he sends rain on the upright man
19:50and on the sinner.
19:53For if you have love for those who have love for you,
19:56what credit is that to you?
20:01And if you say,
20:03good day to your brothers,
20:06what do you do more than others?
20:09Even the Gentiles do this.
20:13Be then complete in righteousness,
20:15even as your Father in heaven is complete.
20:20This is the word of the Lord.
20:23Thanks be to God.
20:35Now according to your word,
20:37Sovereign Lord,
20:38permit your servant to depart in peace.
20:42For my eyes have seen your salvation
20:44that you have prepared
20:46in the presence of all peoples,
20:49a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
20:52and for glory to your people Israel.
20:57Glory be to the Father,
20:59and to the Son,
21:00and to the Holy Spirit,
21:01as it was in the beginning,
21:03is now, and ever shall be,
21:06world without end.
21:08Amen.
21:13I believe in God,
21:15the Father Almighty,
21:16maker of heaven and earth,
21:18and in Jesus Christ,
21:20his only Son,
21:21our Lord,
21:22who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
21:25born of the Virgin Mary,
21:27suffered unto Pontius Pilate,
21:30was crucified,
21:32dead,
21:33and buried.
21:34He descended into hell.
21:36On the third day,
21:38he rose again from the dead.
21:40He ascended into heaven,
21:42and is sitting at the right hand of God,
21:45the Father Almighty.
21:47From there he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
21:52I believe in the Holy Spirit,
21:54the Holy Catholic Church,
21:56the communion of saints,
21:57the forgiveness of sins,
22:00the resurrection of the body,
22:02and the life everlasting.
22:05Amen.
22:10The Lord be with you,
22:13and with your spirit.
22:17Let us pray.
22:21Lord, have mercy upon us.
22:24Christ, have mercy upon us.
22:28Lord, have mercy upon us.
22:35Our Father,
22:36who is in heaven,
22:38holy is your name.
22:41May your kingdom come.
22:43May your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
22:48Amen.
22:49Give us this day our daily bread.
22:51Forgive us our trespasses,
22:53as we forgive those who trespass against us.
22:57Lead us not into temptation,
23:00but deliver us from evil.
23:02For yours is the kingdom,
23:05the power and the glory,
23:07for ever and ever.
23:09For ever and ever.
23:10Amen.
23:16O Lord, show your mercy upon us,
23:18and grant us your salvation.
23:24protect and guide those in authority over us,
23:28and mercifully hear us when we call upon you.
23:35Endue your ministers with righteousness,
23:38and make your chosen people joyful.
23:43O Lord, save your people,
23:46and bless your inheritance.
23:51Give peace in our time, O Lord,
23:55because there is none other who fights for us,
23:58but only you, O God.
24:01O God, make clean our hearts within us,
24:06and take not your Holy Spirit from us.
24:17Let us pray.
24:20O God, who has prepared for those who love you
24:23such good things as past man's understanding,
24:27pour into our hearts such love toward you,
24:31that we, loving you above all things,
24:33may obtain your promises,
24:36which exceed all that we can desire.
24:38Through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
24:42Amen.
24:50O God, from whom all holy desires,
24:55all good counsels, and all just works proceed,
24:58give to your servants that peace which the world cannot give,
25:03that our hearts may be set to obey your commandments,
25:08and also that, by you,
25:10we, being defended from the fear of our enemies,
25:14may pass our time in rest and quietness.
25:18Through the merits of Jesus Christ, our Saviour.
25:22Amen.
25:27Lighten our darkness, we beseech you, O Lord,
25:30and by your great mercy defend us all
25:33from perils and dangers of this night.
25:37For the love of your only Son, our Saviour, Jesus Christ.
25:42Amen.
25:46Almighty God, who has given us grace at this time with one accord
25:51to make our common supplications to you,
25:54and promises that when two or three are gathered together in your name,
25:59you will grant their requests.
26:03Fulfill now, O Lord,
26:05the desires and petitions of your servants,
26:07as may be most beneficial for them,
26:12granting us in this world knowledge of your truth,
26:16and in the world to come, life everlasting.
26:20Amen.
26:23May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
26:26and the love of God,
26:27and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,
26:30be with us all evermore.
26:33Amen.
