Psalm 119:41-48(f)

  1. Let your steadfast love come to me O Lord:
    your saving help according to your promise.
  2. Then shall I have my answer for those who taunt me:
    for my trust is in your word.
  3. Let my mouth never fail to speak the truth:
    for my hope is in your judgments.
  4. I shall always keep your law:
    I shall keep it for ever and ever.
  5. I shall walk in the path of freedom:
    because I study your precepts.
  6. I will speak of your decrees before kings:
    and I will not be abashed in their presence.
  7. I find delight in your commandments:
    which I have greatly loved.
  8. I will revere your commandments and love them:
    and I will meditate on your statutes.

Collect

Praise and honour to you living God for John the Baptist,
and for all those voices crying in the wilderness
who prepare your way.
May we listen when a prophet speaks your word, and obey.
Amen.

Prayer

Our Father in heaven,
the kingdom, the power,
and the glory are yours
now and for ever.

Jesus our inspiration,
you come in the evening as our doors are shut,
and bring peace.
Grant us sleep tonight,
and courage tomorrow to go wherever you lead.
Amen.
