The Sunday called Sexagesima, or the Second Sunday before Lent.
Psalm 87. Fundamenta ejus.
HER foundations are upon the holy
hills: * the Lord loveth the gates of Sion more than all the dwellings of
Jacob.
2 Very excellent things are spoken of
thee, * thou city of God.
3 I will make mention of Egypt and
Babylon, * among them that know me.
4 Behold, Philistia also; and Tyre,
with Ethiopia; * lo, in Sion were they born.
5 Yea, of Sion it shall be reported,
this one and that one were born in her; * and the Most High shall stablish her.
6 The Lord shall record it, when he
writeth up the peoples; * lo, in Sion were they born.
7 The singers also and trumpeters shall
make answer: * All my fresh springs are in thee.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son *
and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and
ever shall be, * world without end. Amen.
The Collect.
O LORD God, who seest that we put not our trust in any
thing that we do; Mercifully grant that by thy power we may be defended against
all adversity; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
