Psalm 125

  1. Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion:
    which cannot be shaken but stands forever.
  2. As the hills enfold Jerusalem:
    so you enfold your people O Lord, now and forever.
  3. The sceptre of the wicked shall not hold sway
    over land assigned to the just:
    lest the just should put out their hand to do evil.
  4. Do good O Lord to those who are good:
    to those who are upright in heart.
  5. As for those who turn aside into crooked ways,
    the Lord shall lead them away with evil-doers:
    but upon Israel there shall be peace.

Our Father,
save us from the time of trial,
and deliver us from evil.

Dear Lord,

and give your angels charge over those who sleep;
tend your sick ones,
rest your afflicted ones, shield your joyous ones,
and all, for your love’s sake.
Amen

May Christ the Son of God, gladden our hearts
with the good news of God’s Kingdom.
