Confession of Sin

Dearly beloved, we have come together in the presence of Almighty God our heavenly Father, to set forth his praise, to hear his holy Word, and to ask, for ourselves and on behalf of others, those things that are necessary for our life and our salvation. And so that we may prepare ourselves in heart and mind to worship him, let us kneel in silence, and with penitent and obedient hearts confess our sins, that we may obtain forgiveness by his infinite goodness and mercy.

or thisLet us confess our sins against God and our neighbor.

Most merciful God,
we confess that we have sinned against you
in thought, word, and deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent.
For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ,
have mercy on us and forgive us;
that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

*A deacon or lay person using the preceding form remains kneeling, and substitutes 'us' for 'you' and 'our' for 'your.' Almighty God have mercy on us, forgive us all our sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen us in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep us in eternal life. Amen
The Invitatory and Psalter

Officiant:   Lord, open our lips. People:     And our mouth shall proclaim your praise

Officiant and People: Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen

Then follows one of the Invitatory Psalms

Jubilate Psalm 100
Be joyful in the Lord, all you lands; *
   serve the Lord with gladness and come before his presence with a song.
Know this: The Lord himself is God; *
    he himself has made us, and we are his; we are his people and the sheep of his pasture.
Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise; *
   give thanks to him and call upon his Name.
For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; *
    and his faithfulness endures from age to age.

The following Antiphon may be sung or said with the Invitatory Psalm

Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Look and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow which was brough upon me, whom the Lord has afflicated.

The Lessons

Psalm 69

⁽¹⁾ Save me, O God! For the waters have come up to my neck. ⁽²⁾ I sink in deep mire, Where there is no standing; I have come into deep waters, Where the floods overflow me. ⁽³⁾ I am weary with my crying; My throat is dry; My eyes fail while I wait for my God. ⁽⁴⁾ Those who hate me without a cause Are more than the hairs of my head; They are mighty who would destroy me, Being my enemies wrongfully; Though I have stolen nothing, I still must restore it.

⁽⁵⁾ O God, You know my foolishness; And my sins are not hidden from You. ⁽⁶⁾ Let not those who wait for You, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed because of me; Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel. ⁽⁷⁾ Because for Your sake I have borne reproach; Shame has covered my face. ⁽⁸⁾ I have become a stranger to my brothers, And an alien to my mother's children;

⁽⁹⁾ Because zeal for Your house has eaten me up, And the reproaches of those who reproach You have fallen on me. ⁽¹⁰⁾ When I wept and chastened my soul with fasting, That became my reproach. ⁽¹¹⁾ I also made sackcloth my garment; I became a byword to them. ⁽¹²⁾ Those who sit in the gate speak against me, And I am the song of the drunkards.

⁽¹³⁾ But as for me, my prayer is to You, O LORD, in the acceptable time; O God, in the multitude of Your mercy, Hear me in the truth of Your salvation. ⁽¹⁴⁾ Deliver me out of the mire, And let me not sink; Let me be delivered from those who hate me, And out of the deep waters. ⁽¹⁵⁾ Let not the floodwater overflow me, Nor let the deep swallow me up; And let not the pit shut its mouth on me. ⁽¹⁶⁾ Hear me, O LORD, for Your lovingkindness is good; Turn to me according to the multitude of Your tender mercies.

⁽¹⁷⁾ And do not hide Your face from Your servant, For I am in trouble; Hear me speedily. ⁽¹⁸⁾ Draw near to my soul, and redeem it; Deliver me because of my enemies. ⁽¹⁹⁾ You know my reproach, my shame, and my dishonor; My adversaries are all before You. ⁽²⁰⁾ Reproach has broken my heart, And I am full of heaviness; I looked for someone to take pity, but there was none; And for comforters, but I found none.

⁽²¹⁾ They also gave me gall for my food, And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. ⁽²²⁾ Let their table become a snare before them, And their well-being a trap. ⁽²³⁾ Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see; And make their loins shake continually.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Lamentations 1

⁽¹⁾ How lonely sits the city That was full of people! How like a widow is she, Who was great among the nations! The princess among the provinces Has become a slave! ⁽²⁾ She weeps bitterly in the night, Her tears are on her cheeks; Among all her lovers She has none to comfort her. All her friends have dealt treacherously with her; They have become her enemies. ⁽⁶⁾ And from the daughter of Zion All her splendor has departed. Her princes have become like deer That find no pasture, That flee without strength Before the pursuer. ⁽⁷⁾ In the days of her affliction and roaming, Jerusalem remembers all her pleasant things That she had in the days of old. When her people fell into the hand of the enemy, With no one to help her, The adversaries saw her And mocked at her downfall. ⁽⁸⁾ Jerusalem has sinned gravely, Therefore she has become vile. All who honored her despise her Because they have seen her nakedness; Yes, she sighs and turns away. ⁽⁹⁾ Her uncleanness is in her skirts; She did not consider her destiny; Therefore her collapse was awesome; She had no comforter. 'O LORD, behold my affliction, For the enemy is exalted!'

⁽¹⁰⁾ The adversary has spread his hand Over all her pleasant things; For she has seen the nations enter her sanctuary, Those whom You commanded Not to enter Your assembly. ⁽¹¹⁾ All her people sigh, They seek bread; They have given their valuables for food to restore life. 'See, O LORD, and consider, For I am scorned.' ⁽¹²⁾ Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Behold and see If there is any sorrow like my sorrow, Which has been brought on me, Which the LORD has inflicted In the day of His fierce anger.

  The Word of the Lord.
  Thanks be to God.

2 Corinthians 1

⁽¹⁾ Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints who are in all Achaia: ⁽²⁾ Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. ⁽³⁾ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, ⁽⁴⁾ who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

⁽⁵⁾ For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ. ⁽⁶⁾ Now if we are afflicted, it is for your consolation and salvation, which is effective for enduring the same sufferings which we also suffer. Or if we are comforted, it is for your consolation and salvation. ⁽⁷⁾ And our hope for you is steadfast, because we know that as you are partakers of the sufferings, so also you will partake of the consolation. ⁽⁸⁾ For we do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, of our trouble which came to us in Asia: that we were burdened beyond measure, above strength, so that we despaired even of life.

⁽⁹⁾ Yes, we had the sentence of death in ourselves, that we should not trust in ourselves but in God who raises the dead, ⁽¹⁰⁾ who delivered us from so great a death, and does deliver us; in whom we trust that He will still deliver us, ⁽¹¹⁾ you also helping together in prayer for us, that thanks may be given by many persons on our behalf for the gift granted to us through many. ⁽¹²⁾ For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that we conducted ourselves in the world in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom but by the grace of God, and more abundantly toward you.

⁽¹³⁾ For we are not writing any other things to you than what you read or understand. Now I trust you will understand, even to the end ⁽¹⁴⁾ (as also you have understood us in part), that we are your boast as you also are ours, in the day of the Lord Jesus. ⁽¹⁵⁾ And in this confidence I intended to come to you before, that you might have a second benefit -- ⁽¹⁶⁾ to pass by way of you to Macedonia, to come again from Macedonia to you, and be helped by you on my way to Judea.

⁽¹⁷⁾ Therefore, when I was planning this, did I do it lightly? Or the things I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be Yes, Yes, and No, No?

  The Word of the Lord.
  Thanks be to God.

Mark 11

⁽¹²⁾ Now the next day, when they had come out from Bethany, He was hungry. ⁽¹³⁾ And seeing from afar a fig tree having leaves, He went to see if perhaps He would find something on it. When He came to it, He found nothing but leaves, for it was not the season for figs. ⁽¹⁴⁾ In response Jesus said to it, 'Let no one eat fruit from you ever again.' And His disciples heard it. ⁽¹⁵⁾ So they came to Jerusalem. Then Jesus went into the temple and began to drive out those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

⁽¹⁶⁾ And He would not allow anyone to carry wares through the temple. ⁽¹⁷⁾ Then He taught, saying to them, 'Is it not written, 'My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations'? But you have made it a 'den of thieves.' ' ⁽¹⁸⁾ And the scribes and chief priests heard it and sought how they might destroy Him; for they feared Him, because all the people were astonished at His teaching. ⁽¹⁹⁾ When evening had come, He went out of the city.

⁽²⁰⁾ Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. ⁽²¹⁾ And Peter, remembering, said to Him, 'Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.' ⁽²²⁾ So Jesus answered and said to them, 'Have faith in God. ⁽²³⁾ For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, 'Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

⁽²⁴⁾ Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them. ⁽²⁵⁾ And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

  The Gospel of the Lord.
  Thanks be to God.

Canticles can be prayed or sung after each reading or after all readings.
8 The Song of Moses       Cantemus Domino Exodus 15:1-6, 11-13, 17-18 Can be read after the Old Testament Reading
I will sing to the Lord, for he is lofty and uplifted; * the horse and its rider has he hurled into the sea. The Lord is my strength and my refuge; * the Lord has become my Savior. This is my God and I will praise him, * the God of my people and I will exalt him. The Lord is a mighty warrior; * Yahweh is his Name. The chariots of Pharoah and his army has he hurled into the sea; * the finest of those who bear armor have been drowned in the Red Sea. The fathomless deep has overwhelmed them; * they sank into the depths like a stone. Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in might; * your right hand, O Lord, has overthrown the enemy. Who can be compared with you, O Lord, among the gods? * who is like you, glorious in holiness, awesome in renown, and worker of wonders? You stretched forth your right hand; * the earth swallowed them up. With your constant love you led the people you redeemed; * with your might you brought them in safety to your holy dwelling. You will bring them in and plant them * on the mount of your possession, The resting-place you have made for yourself, O Lord, * the sanctuary, O Lord, that your hand has established. The Lord shall reign * forever and forever.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.
17 The Song of the Simeon       Nunc Dimittis Luke 2:29-32 Can be read after the New Testament Reading
  Lord, you now have set your servant free to go in peace as you have promised; For these eyes of mine have seen the Savior, whom you have prepared for all the world to see: A Light to enlighten the nations, and the glory of your people Israel. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.
