Opening Prayers


Standing

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
1 John 1:8-9

Dearly beloved brethren, the Scripture moveth us, in sundry places, to acknowledge and confess our manifold sins and wickedness; and that we should not dissemble nor cloak them before the face of Almighty God our heavenly Father; but confess them with an humble, lowly, penitent, and obedient heart; to the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same, by his infinite goodness and mercy. And although we ought, at all times, humbly to acknowledge our sins before God; yet ought we chiefly so to do, when we assemble and meet together to render thanks for the great benefits that we have received at his hands, to set forth his most worthy praise, to hear his most holy Word, and to ask those things which are requisite and necessary, as well for the body as the soul. Wherefore I pray and beseech you, as many as are here present, to accompany me with a pure heart, and humble voice, unto the throne of the heavenly grace, saying after me;

Kneeling

Almighty and most merciful Father; We have erred, and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against thy holy laws. We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; And we have done those things which we ought not to have done; And there is no health in us. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable offenders. Spare thou them, O God, who confess their faults. Restore thou them that are penitent; According to thy promises declared unto mankind in Christ Jesu our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake; That we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, To the glory of thy holy Name. Amen.

The Collect. The Twenty-first Sunday after Trinity.

Grant, we beseech thee, merciful Lord, to thy faithful people pardon and peace, that they may be cleansed from all their sins, and serve thee with a quiet mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Lord's Prayer

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Standing

O Lord, open thou our lips.
And our mouth shall show forth thy praise.
O God, make speed to save us.
O Lord, make haste to help us.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Praise ye the Lord.
The Lord's Name be praised.


Psalter Readings


Psalm 95

Venite, exultemus

O COME, let us sing unto the Lord * let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation.
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving * and shew ourselves glad in him with psalms.
3 For the Lord is a great God * and a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are all the corners of the earth * and the strength of the hills is his also.
5 The sea is his, and he made it * and his hands prepared the dry land.
6 O come, let us worship and fall down * and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
7 For he is the Lord our God * and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.
8 To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts * as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness;
9 When your fathers tempted me * proved me, and saw my works.
10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said * It is a people that do err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways;
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath * that they should not enter into my rest.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.


Psalm 144

Benedictus Dominus

BLESSED be the Lord my strength * who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight;
2 My hope and my fortress, my castle and deliverer, my defender in whom I trust * who subdueth my people that is under me.
3 Lord, what is man, that thou hast such respect unto him * or the son of man, that thou so regardest him?
4 Man is like a thing of nought * his time passeth away like a shadow.
5 Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down * touch the mountains, and they shall smoke.
6 Cast forth thy lightning, and tear them * shoot out thine arrows, and consume them.
7 Send down thine hand from above * deliver me, and take me out of the great waters, from the hand of strange children;
8 Whose mouth talketh of vanity * and their right hand is a right hand of wickedness.
9 I will sing a new song unto thee, O God * and sing praises unto thee upon a ten-stringed lute.
10 Thou hast given victory unto kings * and hast delivered David thy servant from the peril of the sword.
11 Save me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children * whose mouth talketh of vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of iniquity.
12 That our sons may grow up as the young plants * and that our daughters may be as the polished corners of the temple.
13 That our garners may be full and plenteous with all manner of store * that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets.
14 That our oxen may be strong to labour, that there be no decay * no leading into captivity, and no complaining in our streets.
15 Happy are the people that are in such a case * yea, blessed are the people who have the Lord for their God.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.


Psalm 145

Exaltabo te, Deus

I WILL magnify thee, O God, my King * and I will praise thy Name for ever and ever.
2 Every day will I give thanks unto thee * and praise thy Name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the Lord, and marvellous worthy to be praised * there is no end of his greatness.
4 One generation shall praise thy works unto another * and declare thy power.
5 As for me, I will be talking of thy worship * thy glory, thy praise, and wondrous works;
6 So that men shall speak of the might of thy marvellous acts * and I will also tell of thy greatness.
7 The memorial of thine abundant kindness shall be shewed * and men shall sing of thy righteousness.
8 The Lord is gracious and merciful * long-suffering and of great goodness.

11 They shew the glory of thy kingdom * and talk of thy power;
12 That thy power, thy glory, and mightiness of thy kingdom * might be known unto men.
13 Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom * and thy dominion endureth throughout all ages.
14 The Lord upholdeth all such as fall * and lifteth up all those that are down.
15 The eyes of all wait upon thee, O Lord * and thou givest them their meat in due season.
16 Thou openest thine hand * and fillest all things living with plenteousness.
17 The Lord is righteous in all his ways * and holy in all his works.

Psalm 146

Lauda, anima mea

PRAISE the Lord, O my soul; while I live will I praise the Lord * yea, as long as I have any being, I will sing praises unto my God.
2 O put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man * for there is no help in them.
3 For when the breath of man goeth forth he shall turn again to his earth * and then all his thoughts perish.
4 Blessed is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help * and whose hope is in the Lord his God;
5 Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is * who keepeth his promise for ever;
6 Who helpeth them to right that suffer wrong * who feedeth the hungry.
7 The Lord looseth men out of prison * the Lord giveth sight to the blind.
8 The Lord helpeth them that are fallen * the Lord careth for the righteous.
9 The Lord careth for the strangers, he defendeth the fatherless and widow * as for the way of the ungodly, he turneth it upside down.
10 The Lord thy God, O Sion, shall be King for evermore * and throughout all generations.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost:
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.


Old Testament Reading


2 Samuel 8:1-18

And after this it came to pass, that David smote the Philistines, and subdued them: and David took Metheg-ammah out of the hand of the Philistines.
2 And he smote Moab, and measured them with a line, casting them down to the ground; even with two lines measured he to put to death, and with one full line to keep alive. And so the Moabites became David's servants, and brought gifts.
3 David smote also Hadadezer, the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his border at the river Euphrates.
4 And David took from him a thousand chariots, and seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand footmen: and David houghed all the chariot horses, but reserved of them for an hundred chariots.
5 And when the Syrians of Damascus came to succour Hadadezer king of Zobah, David slew of the Syrians two and twenty thousand men.
6 Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus: and the Syrians became servants to David, and brought gifts. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
7 And David took the shields of gold that were on the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem.
8 And from Betah, and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, king David took exceeding much brass.
9 When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had smitten all the host of Hadadezer,
10 Then Toi sent Joram his son unto king David, to salute him, and to bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer, and smitten him: for Hadadezer had wars with Toi. And Joram brought with him vessels of silver, and vessels of gold, and vessels of brass:
11 Which also king David did dedicate unto the LORD, with the silver and gold that he had dedicated of all nations which he subdued;
12 Of Syria, and of Moab, and of the children of Ammon, and of the Philistines, and of Amalek, and of the spoil of Hadadezer, son of Rehob, king of Zobah.
13 And David gat him a name when he returned from smiting of the Syrians in the valley of salt, being eighteen thousand men.
14 And he put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom put he garrisons, and all they of Edom became David's servants. And the LORD preserved David whithersoever he went.
15 And David reigned over all Israel; and David executed judgment and justice unto all his people.
16 And Joab the son of Zeruiah was over the host; and Jehoshaphat the son of Ahilud was recorder;
17 And Zadok the son of Ahitub, and Ahimelech the son of Abiathar, were the priests; and Seraiah was the scribe;
18 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was over both the Cherethites and the Pelethites; and David's sons were chief rulers.

This is the Word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

New Testament Reading


Revelation 18:1-18

And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like unto this great city!

This is the Word of the Lord.

Thanks be to God.


Second Canticle


Benedictus - Luke 1:68-79

Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,
69 And hath raised up an horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David;
70 As he spake by the mouth of his holy prophets, which have been since the world began:
71 That we should be saved from our enemies, and from the hand of all that hate us;
72 To perform the mercy promised to our fathers, and to remember his holy covenant;
73 The oath which he sware to our father Abraham,
74 That he would grant unto us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before him, all the days of our life.
76 And thou, child, shalt be called the prophet of the Highest: for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways;
77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

I believe in the Holy Ghost: The holy catholic church; The communion of saints: The forgiveness of sins: The resurrection of the body, And the life everlasting. Amen.
