O God our shepherd, you know your sheep by name and lead us to safety through the valleys of death. Guide us by your voice, that we may walk in certainty and security to the joyous feast prepared in your house, through Jesus Christ, our Saviour and Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen.

Hymn of the day
Confession of Faith
The Apostles' Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
he is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and he will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.

My Shepherd will supply my need, Jehovah is His name,
In pastures fresh He makes me feed beside the living stream; He brings my wandering spirit back when I forsake His way, And leads me for His mercy's sake in paths of truth and grace. When I walk through the shades of death His presence is my stay, One word of His supporting grace drives all my fears away; His hand in sight of all my foes doth still my table spread, My cup with blessings overflows, His oil anoints my head. The sure provisions of my God attend me all my days; Oh, may Thy house be my abode and all my work be praise; There would I find a settled rest, while others go and come; No more a stranger nor a guest, but like a child at home. |
OFFERTORY Prayer
Merciful God,
our ordinary gifts seem small for such a celebration,
but you make of them an abundance,
just as you do with our lives.
Feed us again at this table
for service in your name,
in the strength of the risen Christ.
Amen.

The Lord's PrayerOur Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen. |
