J. S. Bach (1685–1750) THE WORD OF GOD

Introit Dominus illuminatio mea

Plainsong

The Lord is my light, and my salvation, whom then shall I fear: The Lord is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? When mine enemies pressed sore upon me, they stumbled and fell. Thou an host of men were laid against me: yet shall not my heart be afraid. – Psalm 27:1,2,3

Hymn 379: “God is Love, let heaven adore him”

Abbot’s Leigh, stand

Opening Sentences Priest: Blessed be God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. People: And blessed be God’s kingdom, now and for ever. Amen. The Collect for Purity Priest: Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all desires known, and from you no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen. Gloria in excelsis (Hymnal S 280) All: Glory to God in the highest, and peace to God’s people on earth. Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father, we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory. Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us; you are seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, you alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen.

The Collect of the Day Priest: The Lord be with you. People: And also with you. Priest: Let us pray. O Lord, make us have perpetual love and reverence for your holy Name, for you never fail to help and govern those whom you have set upon the sure foundation of your loving kindness; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. People: Amen. The Lessons Lector: A Reading from The First Book of Samuel. (17: 32-49) sit David said to Saul, “Let no one’s heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are just a boy, and he has been a warrior from his youth.” But David said to Saul, “Your servant used to keep sheep for his father; and whenever a lion or a bear came, and took a lamb from the flock, I went after it and struck it down, rescuing the lamb from its mouth; and if it turned against me, I would catch it by the jaw, strike it down, and kill it. Your servant has killed both lions and bears; and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be like one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.” David said, “The Lord, who saved me from the paw of the lion and from the paw of the bear, will save me from the hand of this Philistine.” So Saul said to David, “Go, and may the Lord be with you!” Saul clothed David with his armor; he put a bronze helmet on his head and clothed him with a coat of mail. David strapped Saul’s sword over the armor, and he tried in vain to walk, for he was not used to them. Then David said to Saul, “I cannot walk with these; for I am not used to them.” So David removed them. Then he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the wadi, and put them in his shepherd’s bag, in the pouch; his sling was in his hand, and he drew near to the Philistine. The Philistine came on and drew near to David, with his shield-bearer in front of him. When the Philistine looked and saw David, he disdained him, for he was only a youth, ruddy and handsome in appearance. The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the air and to the wild animals of the field.” But David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with 2

sword and spear and javelin; but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. This very day the Lord will deliver you into my hand, and I will strike you down and cut off your head; and I will give the dead bodies of the Philistine army this very day to the birds of the air and to the wild animals of the earth, so that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, and that all this assembly may know that the Lord does not save by sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s and he will give you into our hand.” When the Philistine drew nearer to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. David put his hand in his bag, took out a stone, slung it, and struck the Philistine on his forehead; the stone sank into his forehead, and he fell face down on the ground. People:

The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 9: 9-20 9 The Lord will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in time of trouble. 10

Those who know your Name will put their trust in you, for you never forsake those who seek you, O Lord.

11

Sing praise to the Lord who dwells in Zion; proclaim to the peoples the things he has done.

12

The Avenger of blood will remember them; he will not forget the cry of the afflicted.

13

Have pity on me, O Lord; see the misery I suffer from those who hate me, O you who lift me up from the gate of death;

14

So that I may tell of all your praises and rejoice in your salvation in the gates of the city of Zion.

15

The ungodly have fallen into the pit they dug, and in the snare they set is their own foot caught.

16

The Lord is known by his acts of justice; the wicked are trapped in the works of their own hands. 3

17

The wicked shall be given over to the grave, and also all the peoples that forget God.

18

For the needy shall not always be forgotten, and the hope of the poor shall not perish for ever.

19

Rise up, O Lord, let not the ungodly have the upper hand; let them be judged before you.

20

Put fear upon them, O Lord; let the ungodly know they are but mortal.

All:

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Hymn 493: “O for a thousand tongues to sing” Priest: People:

Azmon, stand

The Holy Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to Mark. (4: 35-41) Glory to you, Lord Christ.

On that day, when evening had come, Jesus said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” Priest: People:

The Gospel of the Lord. Praise to you, Lord Christ.
