Blessed be God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
And blessed be his kingdom, now and for ever. Amen.
Come, let us worship God our King.

Holy God,
holy and mighty,
holy immortal one,
have mercy upon us. (3x)
Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,

From Psalm 51
Open my lips, O Lord, *
and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Create in me a clean heart, O God, *
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from your presence *
and take not your holy Spirit from me.
Give me the joy of your saving help again *
and sustain me with your bountiful Spirit.
Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and always and forever and ever. Amen.
A Psalm
Psalm 75
Confitebimur tibi
We give you thanks, O God, we give you thanks, calling upon your Name and declaring all your wonderful deeds.
“I will appoint a time,” says God; “I will judge with equity.
Though the earth and all its inhabitants are quaking, I will make its pillars fast.
I will say to the boasters, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not toss your horns;
Do not toss your horns so high, nor speak with a proud neck.’”
For judgment is neither from the east nor from the west, nor yet from the wilderness or the mountains.
It is God who judges; he puts down one and lifts up another.
For in the Lord’s hand there is a cup, full of spiced and foaming wine, which he pours out, and all the wicked of the earth shall drink and drain the dregs.
But I will rejoice for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
He shall break off all the horns of the wicked; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
Psalm 76
Notus in JudΦa
In Judah is God known; his Name is great in Israel.
At Salem is his tabernacle, and his dwelling is in Zion.
There he broke the flashing arrows, the shield, the sword, and the weapons of battle.
How glorious you are! more splendid than the everlasting mountains!
The strong of heart have been despoiled; they sink into sleep; none of the warriors can lift a hand.
At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both horse and rider lie stunned.
What terror you inspire! who can stand before you when you are angry?
From heaven you pronounced judgment; the earth was afraid and was still;
When God rose up to judgment and to save all the oppressed of the earth.
Truly, wrathful Edom will give you thanks, and the remnant of Hamath will keep your feasts.
Make a vow to the Lord your God and keep it; let all around him bring gifts to him who is worthy to be feared.
He breaks the spirit of princes, and strikes terror in the kings of the earth.
Glory be to the + Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
now and always and forever and ever. Amen.
The Readings
Galatians 6:2–10
Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor. For each will have to bear his own load.
Let the one who is taught the word share all good things with the one
