The Fifth Sunday after the Epiphany


O LORD, we beseech thee to keep thy Church and household continually in thy true religion; that they who do lean only upon the hope of thy heavenly grace may evermore be defended by thy mighty power; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them:
but gather the wheat into my barn
