MatinsO Lord, open our lips;
And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Opening Sentance
And he shall live; and to him will be given the gold of Sheba, and there will be constant praise for him.. . . . . Psalm 72:15
Prayer
Blessèd are you, Sovereign God, ruler of the nations,
to you be glory and praise for ever!
From the rising of the sun to its setting
your name is proclaimed in all the world.
As the Sun of Righteousness dawns in our hearts,
anoint our lips with the seal of your Spirit
that we may witness to your gospel
and sing your praise in all the world,
Creator, Redeemer, and Giver of Life:
Blessèd be God for ever!
Psalm 46
- God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble. - Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,
though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea; - though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble with its tumult. Selah - There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High. - God is in the midst of the city; it shall not be moved;
God will help it when the morning dawns. - The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts. - The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah - Come, behold the works of the Lord;
see what desolations he has brought on the earth. - He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow, and shatters the spear;
he burns the shields with fire. - ‘Be still, and know that I am God!
I am exalted among the nations,
I am exalted in the earth.’ - The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
Prayer
The night has passed and the day lies open before us;
let us pray with one heart and mind:
( Silence may be kept)
As we rejoice in the gift of this new day,
so may the light of your presence, O God,
set our hearts on fire with love for you;
now and for ever.
Amen.
