Opening Words:

“Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.”

Psalm 19:14 (ESV)

Confession:

Let us humbly confess our sins unto Almighty God.

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.

Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen.

The Invitatory

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

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.

Venite (Psalm 95:1-7)

Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: 
Come let us adore him.

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!

Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: 
Come let us adore him.

The Psalter

Psalm 140

Eripe me, Domine

1

Deliver me, O Lord, from evildoers; *

protect me from the violent,

2

Who devise evil in their hearts *

and stir up strife all day long.

3

They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; *

adder’s poison is under their lips.

4

Keep me, O Lord, from the hands of the wicked; *

protect me from the violent,

who are determined to trip me up.

5

The proud have hidden a snare for me

and stretched out a net of cords; *

they have set traps for me along the path.

6

I have said to the Lord, “You are my God; *

listen, O Lord, to my supplication.

7

O Lord God, the strength of my salvation, *

you have covered my head in the day of battle.

8

Do not grant the desires of the wicked, O Lord, *

Nor let their evil plans prosper.

9

Let not those who surround me lift up their heads; *

let the evil of their lips overwhelm them.

10

Let hot burning coals fall upon them; *

let them be cast into the mire, never to rise up again.”

11

A slanderer shall not be established on the earth, *

and evil shall hunt down the lawless.

12

I know that the Lord will maintain the cause of the poor *

and render justice to the needy.
