Morning Prayer

I give thanks unto You, Adonai,
that, in mercy,
You have restored my soul within me.
Endless is Your compassion;
great is Your faithfulness.
I thank You, Adonai,
for the rest You have given me through the night
and for the breath that renews my body and spirit.
Amen.

Opening Sentance

The faithful will abide with the Lord in love, because grace and mercy are upon God’s holy ones.. . . . Wisdom 3:9

God ever reigns on high.
O come, let us worship.

Psalm 18:17-29

  1. You delivered me from my powerful enemy,
    and from those who hated me:
    because they were too strong for me.
  2. They came upon me in the day of my calamity:
    but you were my upholder O Lord.
  3. You brought me out into a place of liberty:
    you rescued me because you delighted in me.
  4. You rewarded me for my righteous dealing:
    you recompensed me because my hands were clean.
  5. For I have kept your ways O Lord:
    and have not wickedly forsaken my God.
  6. All your laws are before my eyes:
    and your commandments I have not put away from me.
  7. I was also blameless before you:
    and I kept myself from wickedness.
  8. So you rewarded me for my righteous dealing:
    because my hands were clean in your sight.
  9. With the faithful you show yourself faithful:
    with the upright you show yourself upright.
  10. With the pure you show yourself pure:
    but with the crafty ones you are crafty.
  11. For you will deliver a humble people:
    but you will bring down the high looks of the proud.
  12. You light my lamp O Lord my God:
    you turn my darkness into light.
  13. With you I can crush a troop:
    with the help of my God I can leap over a wall.

Morning Prayer

God of mercy and love,
new birth by water and the Spirit is your gift,
a gift none can take away;
may we grow
into the fulness of the stature of Christ.
Amen.
