MatinsO Lord, open our lips;
And our mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Opening Sentance
Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the men of old gained approval.. . . . Hebrews 11:1-2
Psalm 113
- Whakamoemititia a Ihowa/ Praise the Lord.
O praise the Lord, you servants of the Lord:
O praise the name of the Lord. - Blessed be the name of the Lord:
both now and forevermore. - The Lord's name be praised:
from the rising of the sun to its setting. - The Lord is high above the nations:
and the glory of the Lord above the heavens. - Who can be likened to the Lord our God,
who sits enthroned on high:
yet deigns to look down from heaven to earth? - The Lord lifts the weak out of the dust:
and raises the poor from the dung-heap, - to make them sit with princes:
with the princes of God's people. - The Lord gives the barren woman a home:
and makes her the joyful mother of children.
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa/ O praise the Lord.
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.
