The Seventeenth Sunday after Trinity.
Cantate
Domino.
Psalm
xcviii
O SING unto the Lord a new song : for he hath done marvellous things.
With his own right hand, and with his
holy arm : hath he gotten himself the victory.
The Lord declared his salvation : his
righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the heathen.
He hath remembered his mercy and truth
toward the house of Israel : and all the ends of the world have seen the
salvation of our God.
Show yourselves joyful unto the Lord,
all ye lands : sing, rejoice, and give thanks.
Praise the Lord upon the harp : sing to
the harp with a psalm of thanksgiving.
With trumpets also and shawms : O shew
yourselves joyful before the Lord the King.
Let the sea make a noise, and all that
therein is : the round world, and that dwell therein.
Let the floods clap their hands, and
let the hills be joyful together before the Lord : for he cometh to judge the
earth.
With righteousness shall he judge the
world : and the peoples with equity.
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.
LORD, we pray thee that thy grace may always *prevent and follow us, and make us continually to be given to all good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
*N.B. In older use prevent meant: to act ahead of; forestall; to precede; to anticipate.

Reading: Ephesians 4.1-6
Gospel Reading: St. Luke 14.1-11
Almighty God, who judges the world with
righteousness and the peoples with equity, look upon your servant (Mr. Trump,
his wife and family) who has contracted this virus. Lift up their hearts,
sustain their healing, give rest and refreshment to them body and soul, and
grant them a speedy recovery. And during this time, as they feel the aches and
discomfort, may they reflect more on you, your mercy and grace, than on their
own ailment. Draw them close to you, that they may show themselves joyful unto
the Lord, singing, rejoicing and giving thanks. Through your Son, Jesus Christ
our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, One God, forever
and ever. Amen
