Dearly beloved brethren, the Scripture moveth us in sundry places to acknowledge and confess our manifold sins and wickedness; and that we should not dissemble nor cloak them before the face of Almighty God our heavenly Father; but confess them with an humble, lowly, penitent, and obedient heart; to the end that we may obtain forgiveness of the same, by his infinite goodness and mercy. And although we ought at all times humbly to acknowledge our sins before God; yet ought we most chiefly so to do, when we assemble and meet together, to render thanks for the great benefits that we have received at his hands, to set forth his most worthy praise, to hear his most holy Word, and to ask those things which are requisite and necessary as well for the body as the soul. Wherefore I pray and beseech you, as many as are here present, to accompany me with a pure heart, and humble voice, unto the throne of the heavenly grace, saying after me:
Almighty and most merciful Father, We have erred and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep: We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts: We have offended against thy holy laws: We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; And we have done those things which we ought not to have done; And there is no health in us. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable offenders: Spare thou themthose, O God, whichwho confess their faults: Restore thou them thatthose who are penitent; According to thy promises declared unto mankind in Christ Jesu our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, That we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, To the glory of thy holy Name. Amen.
Almighty God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who desireth not the death of a sinner, but rather that he may turn from his wickedness and live; and hath given power and commandment to his Ministers, to declare and pronounce to his people, being penitent, the absolution and remission of their sins: He pardoneth and absolveth all them thatthose who truly repent, and unfeignedly believe his holy Gospel. Wherefore let us beseech him to grant us true repentance, and his Holy Spirit; that those things may please him which we do at this present, and that the rest of our life hereafter may be pure and holy; so that at the last we may come to his eternal joy, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our Father, whichwho art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done inon earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them thatthose who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.
1 | O come, let us sing unto the Lord; * let us heartily rejoice in the strength of our salvation. |
2 | Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, * and shew ourselves glad in him with psalms. |
3 | For the Lord is a great God, * and a great King above all gods. |
4 | In his hand are all the corners of the earth, * and the strength of the hills is his also. |
5 | The sea is his, and he made it; * and his hands prepared the dry land. |
6 | O come, let us worship and fall down, * and kneel before the Lord our Maker. |
7 | For he is the Lord our God; * and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. |
8 | Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts: * as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness; |
9 | When your fathers tempted me, * proved me, and saw my works. |
10 | Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, * It is a people that do err in their hearts, for they have not known my ways; |
11 | Unto whom I sware in my wrath, * that they should not enter into my rest. |
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. |
1 | Blessed be the Lord my strength, * who teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight; |
2 | My hope and my fortress, my castle and deliverer, my defender in whom I trust; * who subdueth my people that is under me. |
3 | Lord, what is man, that thou hast such respect unto him? * or the son of man, that thou so regardest him? |
4 | Man is like a thing of nought; * his time passeth away like a shadow. |
5 | Bow thy heavens, O Lord, and come down; * touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. |
6 | Cast forth thy lightning, and tear them; * shoot out thine arrows, and consume them. |
7 | Send down thine hand from above: * deliver me, and take me out of the great waters, from the hand of strange children; |
8 | Whose mouth talketh of vanity, * and their right hand is a right hand of wickedness. |
9 | I will sing a new song unto thee, O God; * and sing praises unto thee upon a ten-stringed lute. |
10 | Thou hast given victory unto kings, * and hast delivered David thy servant from the peril of the sword. |
11 | Save me, and deliver me from the hand of strange children, * whose mouth talketh of vanity, and their right hand is a right hand of iniquity. |
12 | That our sons may grow up as the young plants, * and that our daughters may be as the polished corners of the temple. |
13 | That our garners may be full and plenteous with all manner of store; * that our sheep may bring forth thousands and ten thousands in our streets. |
14 | That our oxen may be strong to labour, that there be no decay, * no leading into captivity, and no complaining in our streets. |
15 | Happy are the people that are in such a case; * yea, blessed are the people who have the Lord for their God. |
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. |
1 | I will magnify thee, O God, my King; * and I will praise thy Name for ever and ever. |
2 | Every day will I give thanks unto thee; * and praise thy Name for ever and ever. |
3 | Great is the Lord, and marvellous worthy to be praised; * there is no end of his greatness. |
4 | One generation shall praise thy works unto another, * and declare thy power. |
5 | As for me, I will be talking of thy worship, * thy glory, thy praise, and wondrous works; |
6 | So that men shall speak of the might of thy marvellous acts; * and I will also tell of thy greatness. |
7 | The memorial of thine abundant kindness shall be shewed; * and men shall sing of thy righteousness. |
8 | The Lord is gracious and merciful; * longsuffering and of great goodness. |
9 | The Lord is loving unto every man; * and his mercy is over all his works. |
10 | All thy works praise thee, O Lord; * and thy saints give thanks unto thee. |
11 | They shew the glory of thy kingdom, * and talk of thy power; |
12 | That thy power, thy glory, and mightiness of thy kingdom, * might be known unto men. |
13 | Thy kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, * and thy dominion endureth throughout all ages. |
14 | The Lord upholdeth all such as fall, * and lifteth up all those that are down. |
15 | The eyes of all wait upon thee, O Lord; * and thou givest them their meat in due season. |
16 | Thou openest thine hand, * and fillest all things living with plenteousness. |
17 | The Lord is righteous in all his ways, * and holy in all his works. |
18 | The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him; * yea, all such as call upon him faithfully. |
19 | He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him; * he also will hear their cry, and will help them. |
20 | The Lord preserveth all them that love him; * but scattereth abroad all the ungodly. |
21 | My mouth shall speak the praise of the Lord; * and let all flesh give thanks unto his holy Name for ever and ever. |
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. |
1 | Praise the Lord, O my soul; while I live will I praise the Lord: * yea, as long as I have any being, I will sing praises unto my God. |
2 | O put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man; * for there is no help in them. |
3 | For when the breath of man goeth forth he shall turn again to his earth, * and then all his thoughts perish. |
4 | Blessed is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, * and whose hope is in the Lord his God; |
5 | Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is; * who keepeth his promise for ever; |
6 | Who helpeth them to right that suffer wrong; * who feedeth the hungry. |
7 | The Lord looseth men out of prison; * the Lord giveth sight to the blind. |
8 | The Lord helpeth them that are fallen; * the Lord careth for the righteous. |
9 | The Lord careth for the strangers, he defendeth the fatherless and widow: * as for the way of the ungodly, he turneth it upside down. |
10 | The Lord thy God, O Sion, shall be King for evermore, * and throughout all generations. |
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. |
1 | After these things did king Ahasuerus promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that were with him. |
2 | And all the king's servants, that were in the king's gate, bowed, and reverenced Haman: for the king had so commanded concerning him. But Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence. |
3 | Then the king's servants, which were in the king's gate, said unto Mordecai, Why transgressest thou the king's commandment? |
4 | Now it came to pass, when they spake daily unto him, and he hearkened not unto them, that they told Haman, to see whether Mordecai's matters would stand: for he had told them that he was a Jew. |
5 | And when Haman saw that Mordecai bowed not, nor did him reverence, then was Haman full of wrath. |
6 | And he thought scorn to lay hands on Mordecai alone; for they had shewed him the people of Mordecai: wherefore Haman sought to destroy all the Jews that were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus, even the people of Mordecai. |
7 | In the first month, that is, the month Nisan, in the twelfth year of king Ahasuerus, they cast Pur, that is, the lot, before Haman from day to day, and from month to month, to the twelfth month, that is, the month Adar. |
8 | And Haman said unto king Ahasuerus, There is a certain people scattered abroad and dispersed among the people in all the provinces of thy kingdom; and their laws are diverse from all people; neither keep they the king's laws: therefore it is not for the king's profit to suffer them. |
9 | If it please the king, let it be written that they may be destroyed: and I will pay ten thousand talents of silver to the hands of those that have the charge of the business, to bring it into the king's treasuries. |
10 | And the king took his ring from his hand, and gave it unto Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, the Jews' enemy. |
11 | And the king said unto Haman, The silver is given to thee, the people also, to do with them as it seemeth good to thee. |
12 | Then were the king's scribes called on the thirteenth day of the first month, and there was written according to all that Haman had commanded unto the king's lieutenants, and to the governors that were over every province, and to the rulers of every people of every province according to the writing thereof, and to every people after their language; in the name of king Ahasuerus was it written, and sealed with the king's ring. |
13 | And the letters were sent by posts into all the king's provinces, to destroy, to kill, and to cause to perish, all Jews, both young and old, little children and women, in one day, even upon the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, which is the month Adar, and to take the spoil of them for a prey. |
14 | The copy of the writing for a commandment to be given in every province was published unto all people, that they should be ready against that day. |
15 | The posts went out, being hastened by the king's commandment, and the decree was given in Shushan the palace. And the king and Haman sat down to drink; but the city Shushan was perplexed. |
We praise thee, O God; * we acknowledge thee to be the Lord. | |
All the earth doth worship thee, * the Father everlasting. | |
To thee all Angels cry aloud; * the Heavens, and all the powers therein. | |
To thee Cherubin and Seraphin * continually do cry, | |
Holy, Holy, Holy, * Lord God of Sabaoth; | |
Heaven and earth are full of the Majesty * of thy glory. | |
The glorious company of the Apostles * praise thee. | |
The goodly fellowship of the Prophets * praise thee. | |
The noble army of Martyrs * praise thee. | |
The holy Church throughout all the world * doth acknowledge thee; | |
The Father * of an infinite Majesty; | |
Thine honourable, true, * and only Son; | |
Also the Holy Ghost * the Comforter, | |
Thou art the King of Glory, * O Christ; | |
Thou art the everlasting Son * of the Father. | |
When thou tookest upon thee to deliver man, * thou didst not abhor the Virgin's womb. | |
When thou hadst overcome the sharpness of death, * thou didst open the Kingdom of Heaven to all believers. | |
Thou sittest at the right hand of God, * in the glory of the Father. | |
We believe that thou shalt come * to be our Judge. | |
We therefore pray thee, help thy servants, * whom thou hast redeemed with thy precious blood. | |
Make them to be numbered with thy saints, * in glory everlasting. | |
O Lord, save thy people, * and bless thine heritage. | |
Govern them * and lift them up for ever. | |
Day by day * we magnify thee; | |
And we worship thy Name * ever, world without end. | |
Vouchsafe, O Lord, * to keep us this day without sin. | |
O Lord, have mercy upon us, * have mercy upon us. | |
O Lord, let thy mercy lighten upon us, * as our trust is in thee. | |
O Lord, in thee have I trusted; * let me never be confounded. |
1 | The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; |
2 | As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. |
3 | The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. |
4 | John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. |
5 | And there went out unto him all the land of Judæa, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins. |
6 | And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey; |
7 | And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose. |
8 | I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. |
9 | And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. |
10 | And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: |
11 | And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. |
12 | And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness. |
13 | And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him. |
14 | Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, |
15 | And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. |
16 | Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. |
17 | And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. |
18 | And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him. |
19 | And when he had gone a little farther thence, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets. |
20 | And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him. |
21 | And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught. |
22 | And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes. |
23 | And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, |
24 | Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. |
25 | And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. |
26 | And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him. |
27 | And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him. |
28 | And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee. |
29 | And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. |
30 | But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her. |
31 | And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. |
32 | And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. |
33 | And all the city was gathered together at the door. |
34 | And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him. |
35 | And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. |
36 | And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. |
37 | And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee. |
38 | And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth. |
39 | And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils. |
40 | And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. |
41 | And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. |
42 | And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. |
43 | And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; |
44 | And saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. |
45 | But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter. |
Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; * for he hath visited and redeemed his people; | |
And hath raised up a mighty salvation for us, * in the house of his servant David; | |
As he spake by the mouth of his holy Prophets, * which have been since the world began; | |
That we should be saved from our enemies, * and from the hand of all that hate us: | |
To perform the mercy promised to our forefathers, * and to remember his holy covenant; | |
To perform the oath which he sware to our forefather Abraham, * that he would give us; | |
That we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies * might serve him without fear; | |
In holiness and righteousness before him, * all the days of our life. | |
And thou, Child, shalt be called the Prophet of the Highest: * for thou shalt go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways; | |
To give knowledge of salvation unto his people * for the remission of their sins, | |
Through the tender mercy of our God; * whereby the Day-spring from on high hath visited us; | |
To give light to them that sit in darkness, and in the shadow of death, * and to guide our feet into the way of peace. | |
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. |
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord; Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, Born of the Virgin Mary, Suffered under Pontius Pilate, Was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell; The third day he rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, And sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Ghost; The holy Catholic Church; The Communion of Saints; The Forgiveness of sins; The Resurrection of the body; And the Life everlasting. Amen.
The Lord be with you:
And with thy spirit.
Let us pray.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Christ, have mercy upon us.
Lord, have mercy upon us.
Our Father, whichwho art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done inon earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.

Because there is none other that fighteth for us, but only thou, O God.
O God, make clean our hearts within us;
And take not thy Holy Spirit from us.
God, who as at this time, didst teach the hearts of thy faithful people, by the sending to them the light of thy Holy Spirit; Grant us by the same Spirit to have a right judgment in all things, and evermore to rejoice in his holy comfort, through the merits of Christ Jesus our Saviour; who liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity of the same Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
O God, who art the author of peace, and lover of concord, in knowledge of whom standeth our eternal life, whose service is perfect freedom; Defend us thy humble servants in all assaults of our enemies; that we surely trusting in thy defence, may not fear the power of any adversaries, through the might of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
O Lord our heavenly Father, Almighty and everlasting God, who hast safely brought us to the beginning of this day; Defend us in the same with thy mighty power; and grant that this day we fall into no sin, neither run into any kind of danger; but that all our doings may be ordered by thy governance, to do always that is righteous in thy sight, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

O holy, blessed, and glorious Trinity, three Persons, and one God: have mercy upon us miserable sinners.
Remember not, Lord, our offences, nor the offences of our forefathers; neither take thou vengeance of our sins: spare us, good Lord, spare thy people, whom thou hast redeemed with thy most precious blood, and be not angry with us for ever.

Neither reward us after our iniquities.

We humbly beseech thee, O Father, mercifully to look upon our infirmities; and for the glory of thy Name, turn from us all those evils that we most righteously have deserved; and grant, that in all our troubles we may put our whole trust and confidence in thy mercy, and evermore serve thee in holiness and pureness of living, to thy honour and glory, through our only Mediator and Advocate, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Almighty God our heavenly Father, who hast purchased to thyself an universal Church by the precious blood of thy dear Son; Mercifully look upon the same, and at this time so guide and govern the minds of thy servants the Bishops and Pastors of thy flock, that they may lay hands suddenly on no man, but faithfully and wisely make choice of fit persons to serve in the sacred Ministry of thy Church: And to those which shall be ordained to any holy Function, give thy grace and heavenly benediction, that both by their life and doctrine they may set forth thy glory, and set forward the salvation of all men, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Most gracious God, we humbly beseech thee, as for this nation in general, so especially for the Legislature at this time assembled: That thou wouldest be pleased to direct and prosper all their consultations to the advancement of thy glory, the good of thy Church, the safety, honour, and welfare of thy people; that all things may be so ordered and settled by their endeavours, upon the best and surest foundations, that peace and happiness, truth and justice, religion and piety may be established among us for all generations. These and all other necessaries, for them, for us, and thy whole Church, we humbly beg in the Name and Mediation of Jesus Christ our most blessed Lord and Saviour. Amen.
Almighty God, who hast given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplications unto thee; and dost promise that when two or three are gathered together in thy Name, thou wilt grant their requests; Fulfil now, O Lord, the desires and petitions of thy servants, as may be most expedient for them; granting us in this world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come life everlasting. Amen.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Ghost, be with us all evermore. Amen.
