Easter Sunday Morning - Meditation & Propers
From the Marian Missel by Sylvester P Juergens, S.M.
Introit: Ps. 138. 18, 5, 6
I arose, and am still with Thee, alleluia; Thou hast laid Thy hand upon Me, alleluia; Thy knowledge is become wonderful, alleluia, alleluia. -(Ps. 138. 1, 2). Lord, Thou hast searched Me, and known Me; Thou knowest My sitting down and My rising up. I arose, and am still with Thee, alleluia;...
Collect:
O God, who, on this day, through Thine only-begotten Son, hast conquered death, and thrown open to us the gate of everlasting life, give effect by thine aid to our desires, which Thou dost anticipate and inspire. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth and reignest with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
Gradual: Ps. 117. 24, 1
This is the day which the Lord hath made: let us rejoice and be glad in it. V. Give praise unto the Lord, for He is good: for His mercy endureth for ever. Alleluia, alleluia. V. (I. Cor. 5. 7). Christ our Pasch is immolated.
Sequence:
O God, my God, look upon me; why hast Thou forsaken me? V. Far from my salvation are the words of my sins. V. O my God, I shall cry by day, and Thou wilt not hear; and by night, and it shall not be reputed as folly in me. V. But Thou dwellest in the holy place, the praise of Israel. V. In Thee have our fathers hoped; they have hoped, and Thou hast delivered them. V. They cried to Thee, and they were saved; they trusted in Thee, and were not confounded. V. But I am a worm, and no man: the reproach of men and the outcast of the people. V. All they that saw Me have laughed Me to scorn; they have spoken with the lips and wagged the head. V. He hoped in the Lord, let Him deliver Him; let Him save Him, seeing He delighteth in Him. V. But they have looked and stared upon Me; they parted My garments amongst them, and upon My vesture they cast lots. V. Deliver me from the lion's mouth, and my lowness from the horns of the unicorns. V. Ye that fear the Lord, praise Him; all ye the seed the Jacob, glorify Him. V. There shall be declared to the Lord a generation to come; and the heavens shall show forth His justice. V. To a people that shall be born, which the Lord hath made.
Offertory: Ps. 75. 9, 10
The earth trembled and was still when God arose in judgment, alleluia.
Secret:
We beseech Thee, O Lord, accept the prayers of Thy people together with the Sacrifice they offer, that what has been begun by the Paschal Mysteries, by Thy working may profit us unto eternal healing. 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: I. Cor. 5. 7, 8
Christ our Pasch is immolated, alleluia: therefore let us feast with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.
Postcommunion:
Pour forth upon us, O Lord, the spirit of Thy love, that, by Thy loving-kindness, Thou mayest make to be of one mind those whom Thou hast satisfied with the Paschal Sacraments. 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
