Opening Words:
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us, full of grace and truth.
John 1:14
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. Alleluia.
Jubilate (Psalm 100)
Alleluia. To us a child is born: O come, let us adore him. Alleluia.
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.
Alleluia. To us a child is born: O come, let us adore him. Alleluia.
The Psalter
Psalm 46
God is our refuge and strength, *
a very present help in trouble.
2
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be moved, *
and though the mountains be toppled into the depths of the sea;
3
Though its waters rage and foam, *
and though the mountains tremble at its tumult.
4
The Lord of hosts is with us; *
the God of Jacob is our stronghold.
5
There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, *
the holy habitation of the Most High.
6
God is in the midst of her;
she shall not be overthrown; *
God shall help her at the break of day.
7
The nations make much ado, and the kingdoms are shaken; *
God has spoken, and the earth shall melt away.
8
The Lord of hosts is with us; *
the God of Jacob is our stronghold.
9
Come now and look upon the works of the Lord, *
what awesome things he has done on earth.
10
It is he who makes war to cease in all the world; *
he breaks the bow, and shatters the spear,
and burns the shields with fire.
11
“Be still, then, and know that I am God; *
I will be exalted among the nations;
I will be exalted in the earth.”
12
The Lord of hosts is with us; *
the God of Jacob is our stronghold.
Psalm 48
Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised; *
in the city of our God is his holy hill.
2
Beautiful and lofty, the joy of all the earth, is the hill of Zion, *
the very center of the world and the city of the great King.
