The Sunday called
Quinquagesima, or the next Sunday before Lent.
Psalm
26
Judica me, Domine
BE THOU my judge, O Lord, for I have walked innocently : my trust hath
been also in the Lord, therefore shall I not fall.
2. Examine me, O Lord, and prove me : try out my reins and my heart.
3. For thy loving-kindness is ever before mine eyes : and I will walk
in thy truth.
4. I have not dwelt with vain persons : neither will I have fellowship
with the deceitful.
5. I have hated the congregation of the wicked : and will not sit among
the ungodly.
6. I will wash my hands in innocency, O Lord : and so will I go to
thine altar.
7. That I may shew the voice of thanksgiving : and tell of all thy
wondrous works.
8. Lord, I have loved the habitation of thy house : and the place where
thine honour dwelleth.
9. O shut not up my soul with the sinners : nor my life with the
blood-thirsty.
10. In whose hands is wickedness : and their right hand is full of
gifts.
11. But as for me, I will walk innocently : O deliver me, and be
merciful unto me.
12. My foot standeth right : I will praise the Lord in the
congregations.
The Collect.
O LORD, who hast taught us
that all our doings without charity are nothing worth; Send thy Holy Ghost and
pour into our hearts that most excellent gift of charity, the very bond of
peace and of all virtues, without which whosoever liveth is counted dead before
thee. Grant this for thine only Son Jesus Christ’s sake. Amen.
