Passiontide


℣. O God, ✠ come to my assistance.
℟. O Lord, make haste to help me.

℣. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Ghost.
℟. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end. Amen.

── Hymn ──

Now in the sun's new dawning ray,
Lowly of heart, our God we pray
That he from harm may keep us free
In all the deeds this day shall see.
May fear of him our tongues restrain,
Lest strife unguarded speech should stain:
His favouring care our guardian be,
Lest our eyes feed on vanity.
May every heart be pure from sin
And folly find no place therein:
Scant need of food, excess denied,
Wear down in us the body's pride.
That when the light of day is gone,
And night in course shall follow on.
We, free from cares the world affords,
May chant the praise that is our Lord's.
All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, Eternal Son, to thee:
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.
Amen.

── Psalms ──

Ant. Alleluia, * Give glory to the Lord, for his mercy endureth for ever, alleluia, alleluia.

Psalm 117

Give praise to the Lord, for he is good: * for his mercy endureth for ever.
Let Israel now say, that he is good: * that his mercy endureth for ever.
Let the house of Aaron now say, * that his mercy endureth for ever.
Let them that fear the Lord now say, * that his mercy endureth for ever.
In my trouble I called upon the Lord: * and the Lord heard me, and enlarged me.
The Lord is my helper: * I will not fear what man can do unto me.
The Lord is my helper: * and I will look over my enemies.
It is good to confide in the Lord, * rather than to have confidence in man.
It is good to trust in the Lord, * rather than to trust in princes.
All nations compassed me about; * and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.
Surrounding me they compassed me about: * and in the name of the Lord I have been revenged on them.
They surrounded me like bees, † and they burned like fire among thorns: * and in the name of the Lord I was revenged on them.
Being pushed I was overturned that I might fall: * but the Lord supported me.
The Lord is my strength and my praise: * and he is become my salvation.
The voice of rejoicing and of salvation * is in the tabernacles of the just.

☩ Ad Maiorem Dei Gloriam
