The Third Sunday
after Easter.
Psalm
75
Confitebimur tibi
UNTO thee, O God, do we give thanks : yea, unto thee do we give thanks.
2. Thy Name also is so nigh : and that do thy wondrous works declare.
3. When I receive the congregation : I shall judge according unto
right.
4. The earth is weak, and all the inhabiters thereof : I bear up the
pillars of it.
5. I said unto the fools, Deal not so madly: and to the ungodly, Set
not up your horn.
6. Set not up your horn on high : and speak not with a stiff neck.
7. For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west : nor
yet from the south.
8. And why? God is the Judge : he putteth down one, and setteth up
another.
9. For in the hand of the Lord there is a cup, and the wine is red : it
is full mixed, and he poureth out of the same.
10. As for the dregs thereof : all the ungodly of the earth shall drink
them, and suck them out.
11. But I will talk of the God of Jacob : and praise him for ever.
12. All the horns of the ungodly also will I break : and the horns of
the righteous shall be exalted.
The Collect.
ALMIGHTY God, who shewest to
them that be in error the light of thy truth, to the intent that they may
return into the way of righteousness; Grant unto all them that are admitted
into the fellowship of Christ’s Religion, that they may eschew those things
that are contrary to their profession, and follow all such things as are
agreeable to the same; through our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
