Psalm 34:9-14 Jerome Webster Meachen
9 Fear the LORD, you that are his saints, *
for those who fear him lack nothing.
10 The young lions lack and suffer hunger, *
but those who seek the LORD lack nothing that is good.
211 Come, children, and listen to me; *
I will teach you the fear of the LORD.
12 Who among you loves life *
and desires long life to enjoy prosperity?
13 Keep your tongue from evil-speaking *
and your lips from lying words.
14 Turn from evil and do good; *
seek peace and pursue 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.
The Lessons
(Please be seated for the reading of the First Lesson.)
The First Lesson: Proverbs 9:1-6
Wisdom has built her house,
she has hewn her seven pillars.
She has slaughtered her animals, she has mixed her wine,
she has also set her table.
She has sent out her servant-girls, she calls
from the highest places in the town,
“You that are simple, turn in here!”
To those without sense she says,
“Come, eat of my bread
and drink of the wine I have mixed.
Lay aside immaturity, and live,
and walk in the way of insight.”
Reader The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.
3(Please remain seated as the Choir sings the Canticle. The text of Canticle 10, The Second
Song of Isaiah is found on pages 86-87 of the Book of Common Prayer.)
Canticle 10 The Second Song of Isaiah Quaerite Dominum Henry Purcell
(Please remain seated for the reading of the Second Lesson.)
The Second Lesson: Ephesians 5:15-20
Be careful then how you live, not as unwise people but as wise, making the most of
the time, because the days are evil. So do not be foolish, but understand what the will
of the Lord is. Do not get drunk with wine, for that is debauchery; but be filled with
the Spirit, as you sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs among yourselves,
singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts, giving thanks to God the
Father at all times and for everything in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Reader The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.
(Please remain seated as the Choir sings the Canticle. The text of the Canticle 19, The Song of the
Redeemed is found on page 94 of the Book of Common Prayer.)
Canticle 19 The Song of the Redeemed Magna et Mirabilia Henry Smart
(Please remain seated for the reading of the Third Lesson.)
The Third Lesson: John 6:51-58
Jesus said, “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this
bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my
flesh.”
The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his
flesh to eat?” So Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of
the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Those who eat my
flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day;
for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink. Those who eat my flesh and
drink my blood abide in me, and I in them. Just as the living Father sent me, and I
live because of the Father, so whoever eats me will live because of me. This is the
bread that came down from heaven, not like that which your ancestors ate, and they
died. But the one who eats this bread will live forever.”
Reader The Word of the Lord.
People Thanks be to God.

The Collects
The Collect of the Day
Almighty God, you have given your only Son to be for us a sacrifice for sin, and also
an example of godly life: Give us grace to receive thankfully the fruits of his
redeeming work, and to follow daily in the blessed steps of his most holy life;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy
Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
A Collect for Peace
O God, the author of peace and lover of concord, to know you is eternal life and to
serve you is perfect freedom: Defend us, your humble servants, in all assaults of our
enemies; that we, surely trusting in your defense, may not fear the power of any
adversaries; through the might of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
A Collect for Guidance
Heavenly Father, in you we live and move and have our being: We humbly pray you
so to guide and govern us by your Holy Spirit, that in all the cares and occupations
of our life we may not forget you, but may remember that we are ever walking in
your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
A Prayer for Mission
O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth, and sent your
blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far off and to those who are near:
Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you; bring the nations into
your fold; pour out your Spirit upon all flesh; and hasten the coming of your
kingdom; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
5A Prayer for Doctors and Nurses
Sanctify, O Lord, those whom you have called to the study and practice of the arts
of healing, and to the prevention of disease and pain. Strengthen them by your life-
giving Spirit, that by their ministries the health of the community may be promoted
and your creation glorified; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
A Prayer for the Sick
O God, the strength of the weak and the comfort of sufferers: Mercifully accept our
prayers, and grant to your servants whom we now name the help of your power,
(names from our parish prayer list are read, and/or offered from the congregation) that their
sickness may be turned into health, and our sorrow into joy; through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.
(Please be seated for the Welcome, Announcements and Offertory Anthem.)
Welcome and Announcements
The Offertory Anthem There’s a Wideness in God’s Mercy Maurice Bevan
There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
Like the wideness of the sea;
There’s a kindness is his justice,
Which is more than liberty,
There is no place where earth’s sorrows
Are more felt than up in heaven;
There is no place where earth’s failings
Have such kindly judgment given.
For the love of God is broader,
Than the measure of the mind;
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
But we make his love too narrow
By false limits of our own;
And we magnify his strictness
With a zeal he will not own.
There is plentiful redemption
In the blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.
There is grace enough for thousands
Of new worlds as great as this;
6There is room for fresh creations
In that upper home of bliss.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take him at his word;
And our life would be all gladness
In the joy of Christ our Lord.
Words: Frederick William Faber (1814-1863)
