The Nineteenth Sunday after Trinity
Nunc dimittis.
St. Luke ii. 29.
LORD,
now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, * according to thy word.
For
mine eyes have seen * thy salvation,
Which
thou hast prepared * before the face of all people;
To
be a light to lighten the Gentiles, * and to be the glory of thy people Israel.
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
GOD, forasmuch as without thee we are not able to please thee; Mercifully
grant, that thy Holy Spirit may in all things direct and rule our hearts;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
(Note the change from the 1549 BCP: "O GOD, for asmuche as without thee,
we are not able to please thee; Graunte that the workyng of thy mercie maye in
all thynges directe and rule our heartes; Through Jesus Christ our
Lorde.")
