Lord, ✛ open my lips, *
and my mouth will proclaim Your praise.
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
Come, let us sing praise to the LORD. *
Shout with joy to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us enter His presence with a song of thanksgiving, *
singing joyful songs to Him.
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
For the LORD is a great God, *
and the great King above all gods.
In His hand are the depths of the earth, *
and the mountain peaks are His as well.
The sea is His for He made it, *
His hands formed the dry land.
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
Come, let us bow down and worship. *
LORDus kneel before the LORD our maker,
for He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture, *
and the flock of His hand.
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
Today, will you hear His voice? †
"Do not harden your hearts, *
as at Meribah and during the temptation in the wilderness,
where your ancestors tested and provoked Me, *
although they were witness to My work."
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
"Forty years that generation disgusted Me", †
and I said, "They are a people whose hearts go astray, *
and they do not know My ways."
So I swore in My anger, *
"Never shall they enter into My rest."
Christ the Lord was tempted and suffered for us. Come, let us worship Him.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
God, ✛ come to my assistance; *
Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
Keep me * from the jaws of the trap they set for me, and from the snares of these evildoers!
The LORD says to my master, *
"Sit at my right hand,
and I will make your enemies *
into a footstool for your feet."
From Zion, the LORD will extend your mighty scepter's reach, saying, *
"Rule in the midst of your enemies."
On the day of your power, your people will follow you, †
in your holy splendor, *
"With the breaking of dawn, your youth comes to you like the dew."
The LORD swore an irrevocable oath, *
"You are a priest always, in the order of King Melchizedek."
On your right is my master, *
who will crush rulers on the day of his wrath.
He will drink from the brook along his way; *
therefore he will lift up his head.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
Keep me * from the jaws of the trap they set for me, and from the snares of these evildoers!
Me, * I proclaim justice, and I fight to save.
When Israel came out of Egypt, *
Jacob's children from a foreign people,
Judah became God's sanctuary, *
and Israel became his dominion.
The sea flees at their sight; *
the Jordan turns back to its source.
The mountains leap like rams, *
and the hills like lambs.
Why was it, sea, that you fled, *
Jordan, that you returned to your source,
the mountains, that you leaped like rams, *
and the hills like lambs?
Tremble, earth, before the Lord, *
before the God of Jacob,
who turned the rock into pools of water, *
and made waters spring forth from flint.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
Me, * I proclaim justice, and I fight to save.
He poured out His life unto death, and was counted with wrongdoers. For He bore the sins of many, and interceded for sinners.
Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, *
for His judgments are true and just.
Praise our God, all you servants of the Lord, *
you who fear him, both small and great.
For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns. *
Let us rejoice and exult and give glory to Him.
For the marriage of the Lamb has come, *
and His bride has made herself ready.
Blessed are those who are invited *
to the wedding banquet of the Lamb.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
He poured out His life unto death, and was counted with wrongdoers. For He bore the sins of many, and interceded for sinners.
Dear siblings, fellow children of Abraham and those among you who fear God, this message of salvation has been sent to us. For the people of Jerusalem and their rulers did not recognize Jesus. Neither did they understand the utterances of the prophets being read every sabbath. In their condemning of Him, their words were fulfilled. Though they found no grounds for putting Him to death, they asked Pilate to have Him executed. They had carried out all that was written about Him. And after, they took Him down from the cross and laid Him in a tomb. But God raised Him from the dead!
My soul ✛ magnifies the greatness of the Lord; *
my spirit bursts, rejoicing in God my Savior.
For He knew the humility of His servant. *
From today all generations will call me blessed.
The Almighty has done great things for me, *
and holy is His name.
He has mercy for those who fear Him, *
from generation to generation.
He has shown the strength of His arm, *
and scattered the proud for the thoughts of their hearts.
He has torn the mighty from their thrones, *
and lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things, *
and sent the rich away empty.
He has given help to His servant Israel, *
and remembered His promise of mercy.
The promise made to our ancestors, *
to Abraham and His children forever.
Glory to the Father, to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit,
As it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be forever.
Amen
Our Father, who is in heaven,
hallowed be Your Name.
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil;
for the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are Yours without end.
Amen
May Your grace, Lord our God, † envelop us within Your love. Help us to imitate the joyful charity of Your Son. * Who gave His life for death because of His love for the world. May we be found in Him through our Lord Jesus Christ. Your Son, who lives and reigns in unity with You and the Holy Spirit. God, now and forever. Amen.
May the Lord bless us,
keep us from all evil,
and bring us to everlasting life.
Amen
