21st Sunday after Pentecost - Meditation & Propers
From the Marian Missel by Sylvester P Juergens, S.M.
God is good towards us: let us be the same towards our brethren. If we pardon our brethren fro the bottom of our hearts, Our Lord Jesus Christ will remit our debts (our sins.)
Introit: Esther 13. 9, 10, 11
All things are in Thy will, O Lord; land there is none that can resist Thy will: for Thou hast made all things, heaven and earth, and all things that are under the cope of heaven: Thou art Lord of all. - (Ps. 118. 1). Blessed are the undefiled in the way; who walk in the law of the Lord. V. 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. All things are in Thy will, O Lord...
Collect:
O Lord, we beseech Thee, to keep Thy household in continual godliness: that, through Thy protections, it may be free from all adversities, and devoutly given to serve Thee in good works to the glory of Thy Name. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth, with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
Gradual: Ps. 89. 1, 2
Lord, Thou hast been our refuge from generation to generation. V. Before the mountains were made, or the earth and the world was formed; from eternity and to eternity Thou art God. Alleluia, alleluia. V. (Ps. 113. 1). When Israel went out of Egypt, the house of Jacob from a barbarous people. Alleluia.
Offertory: Job 1
There was a man in the land of Hus, whose name was Job, simple, and upright, and fearing God: whom Satan besought that he might tempt: and power was given him from the Lord over his possessions and his flesh; and he destroyed all his substance and his children; and wounded his flesh also with a grievous ulcer.
Secret:
Mercifully accept our offerings, O Lord, by which Thou hast willed both that Thou shouldst Thyself be appeased, and, that of Thy great goodness, salvation shouldst be restored unto us. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth, with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen.
Communion: Ps. 118. 81, 84, 86
My soul is in Thy salvation, and in Thy word have I hoped: when wilt Thou execute judgment on them that persecute me? The wicked have persecuted me: help me, O Lord my God.
Postcommunion:
We who have received the Food of immortality, beseech Thee, O Lord: that what we have taken with our mouth, we may follow after with a pure mind. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God, world without end. Amen
My Daily Thought from the Following of Christ:
Lord, I will suffer willingly for Thee whatsoever Thou art pleased should befall me. I am willing indifferently to receive from Thy hand good and evil, sweet and bitter, joy and sorrow, and to give Thee thanks for all that happeneth to me.
Recessional Hymn
Out of the depths to Thee, O Lord, I cry, Lord! Gracious turn Thine ear to suppliant sigh;
If sins of man Thou scann'st, who may stand That searching eye of Thine, and chast'ning hand?
Oh, hear our prayers and sighs, Redeemer blest, And grant Thy holy souls eternal rest.
And let perpetual light upon them shine; For though not spotless, still these souls are Thine.
