The Call to Prayer |
| Sing with joy to God our strength* and raise a loud shout to the God of Jacob. Raise a song and sound the timbrel,* the merry harp, and the lyre. Blow the ram’s-horn at the new moon,* and at the full moon, the day of our feast. For this is a statute for Israel,* a law of the God of Jacob. |

The Morning Psalm |
|
Establish, O God, What You Have Wrought for Us |
| Send forth your strength, O God;* establish, O God, what you have wrought for us. Kings shall bring gifts to you,* for your temple’s sake at Jerusalem. Rebuke the wild beast of the reeds,* and the peoples, a herd of wild bulls with its calves. Trample down those who lust after silver;* scatter the peoples that delight in war. Let tribute be brought out of Egypt;* let Ethiopia stretch out her hands to God. Sing to God, O kingdoms of the earth;* sing praises to the Lord. He rides in the heavens, the ancient heavens;* he sends forth his voice, his mighty voice. |
| Psalm 68:28–34 |

The Lord’s Prayer |
|
|
| Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be your Name. May your kingdom come, and your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for yours are the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. |
|
The Prayer Appointed for the Week |

|
| Father in heaven, who at the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan proclaimed him your beloved Son and anointed him with the Holy Spirit: Grant that all who are baptized into His Name may keep the covenant they have made, and boldly confess him as Lord and Savior; who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.† |
|
The Concluding Prayer of the Church |
|
|
| Lord God, almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought me in safety to this new day: Preserve me with your mighty power, that I may not fall into sin, nor be overcome by adversity; and in all I do direct me to the fulfilling of your purpose; through Jesus Christ my Lord. Amen.† |
