Psalm 98

  1. O sing to the Lord a new song,
    for he has done marvellous things.
    His right hand and his holy arm
    have gained him victory.
  2. The Lord has made known his victory;
    he has revealed his vindication in the sight of the nations.
  3. He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness
    to the house of Israel.
    All the ends of the earth have seen
    the victory of our God.
  4. Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;
    break forth into joyous song and sing praises.
  5. Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
    with the lyre and the sound of melody.
  6. With trumpets and the sound of the horn
    make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord.
  7. Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;
    the world and those who live in it.
  8. Let the floods clap their hands;
    let the hills sing together for joy
  9. at the presence of the Lord, for he is coming
    to judge the earth.
    He will judge the world with righteousness,
    and the peoples with equity.

Collect

Prince of peace,
you gave such great love to Kereopa and Te Manihera
that they laid down their lives
to bring your gospel to their neighbours;
may your reconciling Spirit
embrace today all the peoples in our land.
Amen.

Thanksgiving

Thank Him for 3 things that happened today (Good or Not!)

Prayer

Our Father,
give us today our daily bread.

Look kindly, all-seeing God,
on all who spend this night in anxiety or pain.
Be with those who will die tonight.
Look kindly on those who are without food or shelter,
on those who have no love.
Your will is that we should have life, and share it.
Amen

The Blessing

May God our Redeemer show us compassion and love.
Amen
