Introit: Isaias 68. 20
Declare it with the voice of joy, and make it known, alleluia: declare it even to the ends of the earth: The Lord hath delivered His people, alleluia, alleluia. - (Ps. 65. 1, 2). Shout with joy to God, all the earth, sing ye a psalm to His Name: give glory to His praise. V. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost. Declare it with the voice of joy, and make it known, alleluia: declare it even to the ends of the earth: The Lord hath delivered His people, alleluia, alleluia.
Collect:
O God, from whom all good things do come, grant unto us, Thy suppliant people, that by Thine inspiration, we may think what is right, and under Thy guidance perform the same. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth, with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
Gradual:
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Christ is risen, and hath shone upon us, whom He redeemed with His Blood. Alleluia. V. (John. 16. 28). I came forth from the Gather, and am come into the world: again I leave the world and I go to the Father. Alleluia.
Offertory: Ps. 65. 8, 9, 20
O bless the Lord our God, ye peoples, and make the voice of His praise to be heard: Who hath set my soul to live, and hath not suffered my feet to be moved. Blessed be the Lord, who hath not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me, alleluia.
Secret:
Accept, O Lord, the prayers of Thy faithful, together with the gifts they offer: that by these offices of loving devotion, we may enter into heavenly glory. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth, with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
Communion: Ps. 95. 2
Sing unto the Lord, alleluia; sing unto the Lord, and bless His Name; show forth His salvation from day to day, alleluia, alleluia.
Postcommunion:
Grant to us, O Lord, that filled with strength from this heavenly table, we may both desire what is right, and obtain that which we desire. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen
My Daily Thought from the Following of Christ:
Man's true progress consists in denying himself, and the man of self-denial is very much at liberty, and secure likewise.
Recessional Hymn
Raise your voices, vales and mountains, Flowery meadows, streams, and fountains,
Praise, oh praise, the loveliest maiden Ever the Creator made.
(Chorus)
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam.
Murmuring brooks, your tribute bringing, Little birds with joyful singing,
Come with mirthful praises laden, To your Queen be homage paid.
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam.
Say, sweet Virgin, we implore thee, Say what beauty God sheds o'er thee;
Praise and thanks to Him be given Who in love created thee.
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam
Laudate, Laudate, Laudate Mariam.
