We have not loved you with our whole heart; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves. We are truly sorry and we humbly repent. For the sake of your Son Jesus Christ, have mercy on us and forgive us; that we may delight in your will, and walk in your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen. Almighty God have mercy on you, forgive you all your sins through our Lord Jesus Christ, strengthen you in all goodness, and by the power of the Holy Spirit keep you in eternal life. Amen. The InvitatoryLord, open our lips.<br />And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:<br />as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen. Venite (Psalm 95:1-7)Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: <br />Come let us adore him. Come, let us sing to the Lord; * <br />let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving * <br />and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.For the Lord is a great God, * <br />and a great King above all gods.In his hand are the caverns of the earth, * <br />and the heights of the hills are his also.The sea is his, for he made it, * <br />and his hands have molded the dry land.Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, * <br />and kneel before the Lord our Maker.For he is our God, <br />and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice! Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: <br />Come let us adore him. The PsalterPsalm 66Jubilate Deo1Be joyful in God, all you lands; *sing the glory of his Name;sing the glory of his praise.2Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds! *because of your great strength your enemies cringe before you.3All the earth bows down before you, *sings to you, sings out your Name.”4Come now and see the works of God, *how wonderful he is in his doing toward all people.5He turned the sea into dry land,so that they went through the water on foot, *and there we rejoiced in him.6In his might he rules for ever;his eyes keep watch over the nations; *let no rebel rise up against him.7Bless our God, you peoples; *make the voice of his praise to be heard;8Who holds our souls in life, *and will not allow our feet to slip.9For you, O God, have proved us; *you have tried us just as silver is tried.10You brought us into the snare; *you laid heavy burdens upon our backs.11You let enemies ride over our heads;we went through fire and water; *but you brought us out into a place of refreshment.12I will enter your house with burnt-offeringsand will pay you my vows, *which I promised with my lipsand spoke with my mouth when I was in trouble.13I will offer you sacrifices of fat
