Prelude:
Introit: O salutaris hostia by P. de la Rue
Hymn in Procession: H 39 Jesus, Redeemer of the world v. 1-4
Preces: chanted in unison
Officiant O Lord, open thou our lips.
All And our mouth shall show forth thy praise.
Officiant O God, make speed to save us.
All O Lord, make haste to help us.
Officiant Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
All As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be:
world without end. Amen.
Officiant Praise ye the Lord.
All The Lord’s Name be praised.
Phils Hilaron: to be sung in canon H 25 O gracious Light, Lord Jesus Christ
Psalm 121: chanted by choir
Old Testament Reading: Numbers 21:4-9
From Mount Hor they set out by the way to the Red Sea, to go around the land of Edom; but the
people became impatient on the way. The people spoke against God and against Moses, ‘Why
have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? For there is no food and no water,
and we detest this miserable food.’ Then the Lord sent poisonous serpents among the people, and
they bit the people, so that many Israelites died. The people came to Moses and said, ‘We have
sinned by speaking against the Lord and against you; pray to the Lord to take away the serpents
from us.’ So Moses prayed for the people. And the Lord said to Moses, ‘Make a poisonous
serpent, and set it on a pole; and everyone who is bitten shall look at it and live.’ So Moses made
a serpent of bronze, and put it upon a pole; and whenever a serpent bit someone, that person
would look at the serpent of bronze and live.
Magnificat in C setting by R.V. Williams Luke 1:46–55 [The Song of Mary] sung by the Choir
Magnificat
My soul doth magnify the Lord, *
and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.
For he hath regarded *
the lowliness of his handmaiden.
For behold from henceforth *
all generations shall call me blessed.
For he that is mighty hath magnified me, *
and holy is his Name.
And his mercy is on them that fear him *
throughout all generations.
He hath showed strength with his arm; *
he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
He hath put down the mighty from their seat, *
and hath exalted the humble and meek.
He hath filled the hungry with good things, *
and the rich he hath sent empty away.
He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel, *
as he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed for 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.
New Testament Reading: Luke 14:27-33

Whoever does not carry the cross and follow me cannot be my disciple. For which of you,
intending to build a tower, does not first sit down and estimate the cost, to see whether he has
enough to complete it? Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all
who see it will begin to ridicule him, saying, “This fellow began to build and was not able to
finish.” Or what king, going out to wage war against another king, will not sit down first and
consider whether he is able with ten thousand to oppose the one who comes against him with
twenty thousand? If he cannot, then, while the other is still far away, he sends a delegation and
asks for the terms of peace. So therefore, none of you can become my disciple if you do not give
up all your possessions.
Nunc Dimittis in C: setting by R.V. Williams

Luke 2:29–32 [The Song of Simeon] sung by the Choir Nunc dimittis
Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, *
according to thy word;
For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, *
which thou hast prepared before the face of all people,
To be a light to lighten the Gentiles, *
and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
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.
Apostles’ Creed: chanted in unison

Officiant I believe in God,
All the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord.
He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit
and born of the Virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried.
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven,
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic Church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
Salutation & Lesser Litany: chanted in unison

Officiant The Lord be with you.
All And with thy spirit.

All Lord, have mercy upon us.

Lord, have mercy upon us.
The Lord’s Prayer: chanted by all on a monotone, standing or kneeling

Officiant Our Father,
All who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come,
thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

All And take not thy Holy Spirit from us.
Collects:
Let us pray. O God, whose glory it is always to have mercy: Be gracious to all who have gone
astray from your ways, and bring them again with penitent hearts and steadfast faith to embrace
and hold fast the unchangeable truth of your Word, Jesus Christ your Son; who with you and the
Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Lord God, whose Son our Savior Jesus Christ triumphed over the powers of death and prepared
for us our place in the new Jerusalem: Grant that we, who have this day given thanks for his
resurrection, may praise you in that City of which he is the light, and where he lives and reigns
for ever and ever. Amen.
Keep watch, dear Lord, with those who work, or watch, or weep this night, and give your angels
charge over those who sleep. Tend the sick, Lord Christ; give rest to the weary, bless the dying,
soothe the suffering, pity the afflicted, shield the joyous; and all for your love's sake. Amen.
Anthem: Evening Hymn - B. Gardiner
Closing Prayer: Almighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make
our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that
when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill
now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge
of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen.
Hymn: H 665 "All my hope on God is founded "
The Dismissal:
Officiant Let us bless the Lord.
All Thanks be to God.
The Grace:
Officiant The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit,
be with us all evermore.
All Amen.
