00:17When a wicked person turns from the wickedness he has committed, and does what is just and right, he will
00:26preserve his life.
00:30For I am aware of my rebellious acts, I am forever conscious of my sin.
00:39Hide your face from my sins, wipe away all my guilt.
00:47The sacrifices God desires are a humble spirit, O God, a humble and repentant heart you will not reject.
01:01Dearly beloved brothers and sisters, the scripture moves us in sundry places to acknowledge and confess our many sins and
01:10wickedness.
01:12We should not justify nor hide them before the face of Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, but confess them with
01:20a humble, lowly, penitent and obedient heart.
01:24To the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same, by his infinite goodness and mercy.
01:35Although we ought always to humbly acknowledge our sins before God, we should do this particularly when we assemble and
01:43meet together,
01:44to give thanks for the great benefits we have received at his hands.
01:48To give him most worthy praise, to hear his most holy word, and to ask those things which are truly
01:57necessary as well for the body as the soul.
02:02Therefore I pray and ask you, who are present here today, to accompany me with a pure heart and humble
02:09voice to the throne of the heavenly grace, as we say together.
02:16Almighty and most merciful Father, we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
02:23We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts.
02:29We have offended against your holy laws.
02:32We have failed to do those things which we ought to have done, and we have done things which we
02:39ought not to have done.
02:44But you, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable sinners.
02:49Spare those, O God, who confess their faults.
02:53Restore those who are truly penitent, according to your promises declared to mankind in Christ Jesus our Lord.
03:03Grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to
03:12the glory of your holy name. Amen.
03:18Grant, we beseech you, merciful Lord, to your faithful people, pardon and peace, that they may be cleansed from all
03:26their sins, and serve you with a quiet mind.
03:30Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
03:38Our Father, who is in heaven, hallowed be your name.
03:43Your kingdom come, your will be done, in earth as it is in heaven.
03:49Give us this day our daily bread.
03:52Forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
03:59Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
04:05For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
04:15O Lord, open our lips, and our mouths shall sing out your praise.
04:23O God, make speed to save us.
04:27O Lord, make haste to help us.
04:33Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.
04:39As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
04:45Amen.
04:48Praise the Lord.
04:50The Lord's name be praised.
04:56Psalm 47
04:59All you nations, clap your hands.
05:02Shout out to God in celebration.
05:05For the Lord Most High is awe-inspiring.
05:08He is the great King who rules the whole earth.
05:11He has subdued nations beneath us, and countries under our feet.
05:17He picked out for us a special land to be a source of pride for Jacob, whom he loves.
05:25God has ascended his throne amid loud shouts.
05:28The Lord has ascended amid the blaring of ram's horns.
05:33Sing to God.
05:34Sing.
05:35Sing to our King.
05:36Sing.
05:38For God is King of the whole earth.
05:40Sing a well-written song.
05:43God reigns over the nations.
05:45God sits on his holy throne.
05:48The nobles of the nations assemble, along with the people of the God of Abraham.
05:54For God has authority over the rules of the earth.
05:57He is highly exalted.
06:00Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning,
06:06is now, and ever shall be, world without end.
06:11Amen.
06:16Psalm 48
06:18The Lord is great, and certainly worthy of praise, in the city of our God, his holy hill.
06:26It is lofty and pleasing to look at, a source of joy to the whole earth.
06:32Mount Zion resembles the peaks of Zaphon.
06:35It is the city of the great King.
06:39God is in its fortresses.
06:41He reveals himself as its defender.
06:44For look, the kings assemble.
06:47They advance together.
06:49As soon as they see, they are shocked.
06:52They are terrified.
06:53They quickly retreat.
06:56Look at them shake uncontrollably, like a woman writhing in childbirth.
07:02With an east wind you shatter the large ships.
07:06We heard about God's mighty deeds, and now we have seen them,
07:10in the city of the Lord of Heaven's armies, in the city of our God.
07:16God makes it permanently secure.
07:20We reflect on your loyal love, O God, within your temple.
07:26The praise you receive as far away as the ends of the earth is worthy of your reputation, O God.
07:32You execute justice.
07:36Mount Zion rejoices.
07:38The towns of Judah are happy because of your acts of judgment.
07:44Walk around Zion.
07:46Encircle it.
07:47Count its towers.
07:49Consider its defenses.
07:51Walk through its fortresses, so that you can tell the next generation about it.
07:56For God, our God, is our defender forever.
08:00He guides us.
08:04Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
08:08as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
08:12world without end.
08:14Amen.
08:19Psalm 49
08:23Listen to this, all you nations.
08:26Pay attention, all you inhabitants of the world.
08:30Pay attention, all you people, both rich and poor.
08:34I will declare a wise saying.
08:37I will share my profound thoughts.
08:41I will learn a song that imparts wisdom.
08:44I will then sing my insightful song to the accompaniment of a harp.
08:51Why should I be afraid in times of trouble,
08:54when the sinful deeds of deceptive men threaten to overwhelm me?
08:59They trust in their wealth and boast in their great riches.
09:04Certainly a man cannot rescue his brother.
09:07He cannot pay God an adequate ransom price.
09:11For the ransom price of a human life is too high,
09:14and people go to their final destiny,
09:18so that he might continue to live forever and not experience death.
09:24Surely one sees that even wise people die.
09:28Fools and spiritually insensitive people all pass away
09:33and leave their wealth to others.
09:36Their grave becomes their permanent residence,
09:39their eternal dwelling place.
09:41They name their lands after themselves,
09:45but despite their wealth, people do not last.
09:49They are like animals that perish.
09:52This is the destiny of fools
09:54and of those who approve of their philosophy.
09:58They will travel to Sheol like sheep,
10:01with death as their shepherd.
10:03The godly will rule over them
10:05when the day of vindication dawns.
10:09Sheol will consume their bodies
10:11and they will no longer live in impressive houses.
10:15But God will rescue my life from the power of Sheol.
10:20Certainly he will pull me to safety.
10:24Do not be afraid when a man becomes rich
10:27and his wealth multiplies,
10:29for he will take nothing with him when he dies.
10:33His wealth will not follow him down into the grave.
10:37He pronounces this blessing on himself while he is alive.
10:42May men praise you, for you have done well.
10:47But he will join his ancestors
10:49and they will never again see the light of day.
10:54Wealthy people do not understand.
10:56They are like animals that perish.
11:00Glory be to the Father
11:02and to the Son
11:03and to the Holy Spirit
11:05as it was in the beginning
11:07is now and ever shall be
11:10world without end.
11:12Amen.
11:31The book of Ecclesiasticus chapter 18
11:36My son, to your good deeds
11:38add no blemish
11:39no grief of words
11:41in any of your giving
11:44Does not the dew
11:46assuage the scorching heat?
11:49So is a word better than a gift
11:52Behold, is a word not better than a gift
11:56Both are with a gracious man
11:59A fool will be corrected ungraciously
12:01And the gift of an envious man
12:04consumes the eyes
12:07Learn before you speak
12:09Have a care of your health
12:11or ever you be sick
12:12Before judgment
12:14examine yourself
12:15In the hour of visitation
12:17you will find forgiveness
12:20Humble yourself
12:21before you are sick
12:22And in times of sin
12:25show repentance
12:27Let nothing hinder you
12:28to pay your vow
12:29at the appropriate time
12:31And do not wait
12:33until death
12:34to be justified
12:36Before you make a vow
12:37prepare yourself
12:38Do not be a man
12:40that tempts the Lord
12:41For think upon the wrath
12:43that will be
12:44in the days of the end
12:45The time of vengeance
12:47when he turns away his face
12:50In the days of fullness
12:52remember the time of hunger
12:54Poverty and lack
12:56in the days of wealth
12:58From morning until evening
13:00the time changes
13:02All things are speedy
13:03before the Lord
13:05A wise man will fear
13:07in everything
13:08In days of spinning
13:09He will be aware
13:10of offence
13:12Every man of understanding
13:14knows wisdom
13:15He will give thanks
13:17to him that found them
13:19They that are of understanding
13:21in sayings
13:22became also wise themselves
13:25and poured forth
13:26appropriate proverbs
13:29Do not follow your lusts
13:31refrain yourself
13:32from your appetites
13:34If you give fully
13:36to your soul
13:36the delight
13:37of her desire
13:40She will make you
13:41the laughing stock
13:42of your enemies
13:44Do not make merry
13:45in luxury
13:46Neither be tied
13:48to the expense
13:49of that
13:50Do not be made
13:51a beggar
13:52by banqueting
13:53on borrowed money
13:54when you have nothing
13:56in your purse
13:58This is the word
14:00of the Lord
14:01Thanks be to God
14:15Mary said
14:17My soul exalts the Lord
14:19And my spirit
14:21has begun to rejoice
14:22in God my Saviour
14:24Because he has looked
14:26upon the humble state
14:27of his servant
14:30For from now on
14:31all generations
14:32will call me blessed
14:34Because he who is mighty
14:36has done great things
14:37for me
14:38and holy
14:39is his name
14:41From generation
14:42to generation
14:43he is merciful
14:45to those
14:46who fear him
14:47He has demonstrated
14:49power
14:49with his arm
14:50He has scattered
14:52those whose pride
14:53wells up
14:54from the sheer arrogance
14:55of their hearts
14:57He has brought down
14:58the mighty
14:59from their thrones
15:00and has lifted up
15:01those of lowly position
15:03He has filled
15:05the hungry
15:05with good things
15:06and has sent
15:07the rich
15:08away empty
15:09He has helped
15:11his servant Israel
15:12remembering his mercy
15:14as he promised
15:16to our ancestors
15:17to Abraham
15:19and to his descendants
15:20forever
15:23Glory be to the Father
15:24and to the Son
15:25and to the Holy Spirit
15:27as it was
15:28in the beginning
15:29is now
15:30and ever shall be
15:31world without end
15:34Amen
15:42The Gospel according
15:44to Saint John
15:44Chapter 1
15:47In the beginning
15:48was the Word
15:49and the Word
15:50was with God
15:51and the Word
15:52was fully God
15:55The Word
15:56was with God
15:56in the beginning
15:59All things
16:00were created
16:01by Him
16:01Apart from Him
16:03not one thing
16:04was created
16:05that has been created
16:07In Him
16:08was life
16:09and the life
16:10was the light
16:11of mankind
16:14The light shines on
16:16in the darkness
16:16but the darkness
16:18has not mastered it
16:21A man came
16:22sent from God
16:23whose name
16:24was John
16:25He came to witness
16:26about the light
16:29so that everyone
16:31might believe
16:32through Him
16:34He Himself
16:35was not the light
16:36but He gave witness
16:37about the light
16:40The true light
16:41who gives light
16:42to everyone
16:42was coming
16:43into the world
16:44He was in the world
16:46and the world
16:47was created
16:48by Him
16:48but the world
16:49did not recognise Him
16:52He came to claim
16:53what was His own
16:54but His own people
16:56did not receive Him
16:58But to all
16:59who have received Him
17:00those who believe
17:01in His name
17:02He has given the right
17:04to become
17:05God's children
17:07Children
17:07not born
17:08by human parents
17:09human desire
17:10or a husband's decision
17:12but by God
17:14Now the Word
17:15became flesh
17:16and took up residence
17:17in our midst
17:18We saw His glory
17:21the glory
17:21of the one and only
17:22full of grace
17:24and truth
17:24who came from the Father
17:27John testified
17:29about Him
17:29shouting out
17:30This one
17:31was the one
17:32about whom I said
17:33He who comes after me
17:35is greater than I am
17:37because He existed
17:39before me
17:41But we have all received
17:42from His fullness
17:43one gracious gift
17:45after another
17:45For the law was given
17:47through Moses
17:48but grace and truth
17:50came about
17:51through Jesus Christ
17:54No one has ever seen God
17:56The only one
17:57Himself God
17:58who is in closest fellowship
18:00with the Father
18:01has made God known
18:05Now this
18:06was John's testimony
18:07when the Jewish leaders
18:09sent priests
18:09and Levites
18:10from Jerusalem
18:11to ask Him
18:12Who are you?
18:15He confessed
18:16He did not deny
18:17but He confessed
18:18I am not the Christ
18:22And so
18:23they asked Him
18:25Then who are you?
18:27Are you Elijah?
18:29He said
18:30I am not
18:31Are you a prophet?
18:33He answered
18:34No
18:35Then they said to Him
18:36So tell us
18:37Who are you?
18:40Tell us
18:40so that we may
18:41give an answer
18:42to those who sent us
18:43What can you say
18:45about yourself?
18:48John replied
18:49I am the voice
18:51of the one
18:52shouting in the wilderness
18:53Make straight the way
18:55for the Lord
18:56As Isaiah the prophet
18:58said
18:59For they had been sent
19:01by the Pharisees
19:04And so they asked
19:06John
19:06Why then do you baptize
19:08if you are not the Christ
19:09nor Elijah
19:10nor the prophet?
19:13John answered them
19:16I baptize with water
19:18But among you stands
19:19one whom you do not recognize
19:21who comes after me
19:23And I am not worthy
19:25to untie
19:25the strap
19:27of his sandal
19:29These things happened
19:30in Bethany
19:31across the Jordan River
19:33where John
19:34was baptizing
19:36This is the word
19:38of the Lord
19:39Thanks be to God
19:51Now according to
19:52your word
19:53Sovereign Lord
19:54permit your servant
19:55to depart in peace
19:57For my eyes
19:59have seen
19:59your salvation
20:00that you have prepared
20:02in the presence
20:03of all peoples
20:05A light
20:06for revelation
20:07to the Gentiles
20:08and for glory
20:10to your people
20:11Israel
20:13Glory be to the Father
20:15and to the Son
20:16and to the Holy Spirit
20:17as it was
20:19in the beginning
20:19is now
20:20and ever shall be
20:21world without end
20:23Amen
20:29I believe in God
20:31the Father Almighty
20:32maker of heaven
20:33and earth
20:34and in Jesus Christ
20:36his only Son
20:37our Lord
