Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: — as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Alleluia. HYMN Eternal Maker of the light, True Light itself, surpassing day, No gloom or darkness can you know, In your own light which has no end. Pale shades of night are yielding fast, Before the bold advance of day; Resplendent shines the morning star While other constellations fade. We gladly rise to sing your praise, And thank you with renewed delight, That rising sun brings back the day, To conquer night's obscurity. Most Holy One, we beg of you Let not our souls be led astray, By nature's pleasures and desires Or by the world's deceiving glare. Let no contention raise disputes, Nor greed disgrace a Christian's name, Nor greed for riches be a snare, Nor evil thoughts corrupt our minds. But let us show well-governed souls, Within a body chaste and pure, To spend this day in work and prayer, For Christ our Leader and our Lord. O Father, this we ask be done Through Jesus Christ your only Son, Whom with the Spirit we adore: One God who reigns for evermore. Amen. ?"Eternal Maker of the Light" by Kathleen Lundquist • Title: Eternal Maker of the Light; Text: Aeterne lucis conditor, 5th-6th c.; Translation: St. Cecilia's Abbey, Ryde, Isle of Wight, UK; Tune: Chant, Mode IV; Lumen Christi Hymnal; Artist: Kathleen Lundquist; Recording copyright 2016 by Surgeworks, Inc. PSALMODY Ant. 1 I will sing to you, O Lord; I will learn from you the way of perfection. Psalm 101 Avowal of a good ruler If you love me, keep my commandments (John 14:15 ). My song is of mercy and justice; I sing to you, O Lord. I will walk in the way of perfection. O when, Lord, will you come? I will walk with blameless heart within my house; I will not set before my eyes whatever is base. I will hate the ways of the crooked; they shall not be my friends. The false-hearted must keep far away; the wicked I disown. The man who slanders his neighbor in secret I will bring to silence. The man of proud looks and haughty heart I will never endure. I look to the faithful in the land that they may dwell with me. He who walks in the way of perfection shall be my friend. No man who practices deceit shall live within my house. No man who utters lies shall stand before my eyes. Morning by morning I will silence all the wicked in the land, uprooting from the city of the Lord all who do evil. Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: — as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen. Psalm-prayer So that your people may walk in innocence, you came to us, Lord Jesus, and told us to be holy as your Father is holy. Help your children to love what is truly perfect, so that we may neither speak what is evil nor do what is wrong. Let us stand in your sight and celebrate with you the Father’s love and justice. Ant. I will sing to you, O Lord; I will learn from you the way of perfection. Ant. 2 Lord, do not withhold your compassion from us. Canticle: Daniel 3:26 , 27, 29, 34-41 Azariah’s prayer in the furnace. With your whole hearts turn to God and he will blot out all your sins (Acts 3:19 ). Blessed are you, and praiseworthy, O Lord, the God of our fathers, and glorious forever is your name. For you are just in all you have done; all your deeds are faultless, all your ways right, and all your judgments proper. For we have sinned and transgressed by departing from you, and we have done every kind of evil. For your name’s sake, do not deliver us up forever, or make void your covenant. Do not take away your mercy from us, [...]
