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

Then follows one of the Invitatory Psalms

Venite Psalm 95:1-7
Come, let us sing to the Lord; *
   let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.
Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *
   and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.
For the Lord is a great God, *
   and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the caverns of the earth, *
   and the heights of the hills are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it, *
   and his hands have molded the dry land.
Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, *
   and kneel before the Lord our Maker.
For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *
    Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!

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

The mercy of the Lord is everlasting: Come let us adore him.

The Lessons

Psalm 78

⁽⁴⁰⁾ How often they provoked Him in the wilderness, And grieved Him in the desert! ⁽⁴¹⁾ Yes, again and again they tempted God, And limited the Holy One of Israel. ⁽⁴²⁾ They did not remember His power: The day when He redeemed them from the enemy, ⁽⁴³⁾ When He worked His signs in Egypt, And His wonders in the field of Zoan;

⁽⁴⁴⁾ Turned their rivers into blood, And their streams, that they could not drink. ⁽⁴⁵⁾ He sent swarms of flies among them, which devoured them, And frogs, which destroyed them. ⁽⁴⁶⁾ He also gave their crops to the caterpillar, And their labor to the locust. ⁽⁴⁷⁾ He destroyed their vines with hail, And their sycamore trees with frost.

⁽⁴⁸⁾ He also gave up their cattle to the hail, And their flocks to fiery lightning. ⁽⁴⁹⁾ He cast on them the fierceness of His anger, Wrath, indignation, and trouble, By sending angels of destruction among them. ⁽⁵⁰⁾ He made a path for His anger; He did not spare their soul from death, But gave their life over to the plague, ⁽⁵¹⁾ And destroyed all the firstborn in Egypt, The first of their strength in the tents of Ham.

⁽⁵²⁾ But He made His own people go forth like sheep, And guided them in the wilderness like a flock; ⁽⁵³⁾ And He led them on safely, so that they did not fear; But the sea overwhelmed their enemies. ⁽⁵⁴⁾ And He brought them to His holy border, This mountain which His right hand had acquired. ⁽⁵⁵⁾ He also drove out the nations before them, Allotted them an inheritance by survey, And made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.

⁽⁵⁶⁾ Yet they tested and provoked the Most High God, And did not keep His testimonies, ⁽⁵⁷⁾ But turned back and acted unfaithfully like their fathers; They were turned aside like a deceitful bow. ⁽⁵⁸⁾ For they provoked Him to anger with their high places, And moved Him to jealousy with their carved images. ⁽⁵⁹⁾ When God heard this, He was furious, And greatly abhorred Israel,

⁽⁶⁰⁾ So that He forsook the tabernacle of Shiloh, The tent He had placed among men, ⁽⁶¹⁾ And delivered His strength into captivity, And His glory into the enemy's hand. ⁽⁶²⁾ He also gave His people over to the sword, And was furious with His inheritance. ⁽⁶³⁾ The fire consumed their young men, And their maidens were not given in marriage.

⁽⁶⁴⁾ Their priests fell by the sword, And their widows made no lamentation. ⁽⁶⁵⁾ Then the Lord awoke as from sleep, Like a mighty man who shouts because of wine. ⁽⁶⁶⁾ And He beat back His enemies; He put them to a perpetual reproach. ⁽⁶⁷⁾ Moreover He rejected the tent of Joseph, And did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,

⁽⁶⁸⁾ But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which He loved. ⁽⁶⁹⁾ And He built His sanctuary like the heights, Like the earth which He has established forever. ⁽⁷⁰⁾ He also chose David His servant, And took him from the sheepfolds; ⁽⁷¹⁾ From following the ewes that had young He brought him, To shepherd Jacob His people, And Israel His inheritance.

⁽⁷²⁾ So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart, And guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

Nehemiah 9

⁽²⁶⁾ Nevertheless they were disobedient And rebelled against You, Cast Your law behind their backs And killed Your prophets, who testified against them To turn them to Yourself; And they worked great provocations. ⁽²⁷⁾ Therefore You delivered them into the hand of their enemies, Who oppressed them; And in the time of their trouble, When they cried to You, You heard from heaven; And according to Your abundant mercies You gave them deliverers who saved them From the hand of their enemies. ⁽²⁸⁾ But after they had rest, They again did evil before You. Therefore You left them in the hand of their enemies, So that they had dominion over them; Yet when they returned and cried out to You, You heard from heaven; And many times You delivered them according to Your mercies, ⁽²⁹⁾ And testified against them, That You might bring them back to Your law. Yet they acted proudly, And did not heed Your commandments, But sinned against Your judgments, 'Which if a man does, he shall live by them.' And they shrugged their shoulders, Stiffened their necks, And would not hear.

⁽³⁰⁾ Yet for many years You had patience with them, And testified against them by Your Spirit in Your prophets. Yet they would not listen; Therefore You gave them into the hand of the peoples of the lands. ⁽³¹⁾ Nevertheless in Your great mercy You did not utterly consume them nor forsake them; For You are God, gracious and merciful. ⁽³²⁾ Now therefore, our God, The great, the mighty, and awesome God, Who keeps covenant and mercy: Do not let all the trouble seem small before You That has come upon us, Our kings and our princes, Our priests and our prophets, Our fathers and on all Your people, from the days of the kings of Assyria until this day. ⁽³³⁾ However You are just in all that has befallen us; For You have dealt faithfully, But we have done wickedly.

⁽³⁴⁾ Neither our kings nor our princes, Our priests nor our fathers, Have kept Your law, Nor heeded Your commandments and Your testimonies, With which You testified against them. ⁽³⁵⁾ For they have not served You in their kingdom, Or in the many good things that You gave them, Or in the large and rich land which You set before them; Nor did they turn from their wicked works. ⁽³⁶⁾ Here we are, servants today! And the land that You gave to our fathers, To eat its fruit and its bounty, Here we are, servants in it! ⁽³⁷⁾ And it yields much increase to the kings You have set over us, Because of our sins; Also they have dominion over our bodies and our cattle At their pleasure; And we are in great distress.

⁽³⁸⁾ And because of all this, We make a sure covenant, and write it; our leaders, our Levites, and our priests seal it.'
  The Word of the Lord.
  Thanks be to God.

Revelation 18

⁽⁹⁾ The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning, ⁽¹⁰⁾ standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.' ⁽¹¹⁾ And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise anymore: ⁽¹²⁾ merchandise of gold and silver, precious stones and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, every kind of citron wood, every kind of object of ivory, every kind of object of most precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;

⁽¹³⁾ and cinnamon and incense, fragrant oil and frankincense, wine and oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men. ⁽¹⁴⁾ The fruit that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you, and you shall find them no more at all. ⁽¹⁵⁾ The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing, ⁽¹⁶⁾ and saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city that was clothed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!

⁽¹⁷⁾ For in one hour such great riches came to nothing.' Every shipmaster, all who travel by ship, sailors, and as many as trade on the sea, stood at a distance ⁽¹⁸⁾ and cried out when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, 'What is like this great city?' ⁽¹⁹⁾ They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city, in which all who had ships on the sea became rich by her wealth! For in one hour she is made desolate.' ⁽²⁰⁾ Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets, for God has avenged you on her!'

  The Word of the Lord.
  Thanks be to God.

Matthew 15

⁽²¹⁾ Then Jesus went out from there and departed to the region of Tyre and Sidon. ⁽²²⁾ And behold, a woman of Canaan came from that region and cried out to Him, saying, 'Have mercy on me, O Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed.' ⁽²³⁾ But He answered her not a word. And His disciples came and urged Him, saying, 'Send her away, for she cries out after us.' ⁽²⁴⁾ But He answered and said, 'I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.'

⁽²⁵⁾ Then she came and worshiped Him, saying, 'Lord, help me!' ⁽²⁶⁾ But He answered and said, 'It is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs.' ⁽²⁷⁾ And she said, 'Yes, Lord, yet even the little dogs eat the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.' ⁽²⁸⁾ Then Jesus answered and said to her, 'O woman, great is your faith! Let it be to you as you desire.' And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

The Gospel of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

Canticles can be prayed or sung after each reading or after all readings.
10 The Second Song of Isaiah       Quaerite Dominum Isaiah 55:6-11 Can be read after the Old Testament Reading

Seek the Lord while he wills to be found; * call upon him when he draws near. Let the wicked forsake their ways * and the evil ones their thoughts; And let them turn to the Lord, and he will have compassion, * and to our God, for he will richly pardon. For my thoughts are not your thoughts, * nor your ways my ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, * so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as rain and snow fall from the heavens * and return not again, but water the earth, Bringing forth life and giving growth, * seed for sowing and bread for eating, So is my word that goes forth from my mouth; * it will not return to me empty; But it will accomplish that which I have purposed, * and prosper in that for which I sent it.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
15 The Song of Mary       Magnificat Luke 1:46-55 Can be read after the New Testament Reading
  My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior; for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant, From this day all generations will call me blessed: the Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name. He has mercy on those who fear him in every generation. He has shown the strength of his arm, he has scattered the proud in their conceit. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones, and has lifted up the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty. He has come to the help of his servant Israel, for he has remembered his promise of mercy, The promise he made to our fathers, to Abraham and his children for ever.

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