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

Blessed are you, loving God,
in Hugh the conquering lion, the peppery monk,
who fought injustice in the king, in the landowners,
in rioting mobs,
and won;
whether we win or fail,
may we take courage from him and be strong.
Amen.
