The Sunday called
Quinquagesima, or the next Sunday before Lent.
1 Chronicles 29.10-13
Benedictus es, Domine Deus Israel
Blessed be thou, LORD God of
Israel our father, * for ever and ever.
Thine, O LORD, is the greatness,
and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: * for all that
is in the heaven and in the earth is thine;
Thine is the kingdom, O LORD, *
and thou art exalted as head above all.
Both riches and honour come of
thee, * and thou reignest over all;
And in thine hand is power and
might; *and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give
strength unto all.
Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, * and praise
thy glorious name.
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, 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.

Psalm 6. Domine, ne in
furore
O LORD,
rebuke me not in thine indignation, * neither chasten me in thy displeasure.
2 Have mercy upon me, O Lord, for I am weak; * O Lord,
heal me, for my bones are vexed.
3 My soul also is sore troubled: * but, Lord, how long
wilt thou punish me?
4 Turn thee, O Lord, and deliver my soul; * O save me,
for thy mercy’s sake.
5 For in death no man remembereth thee; * and who will
give thee thanks in the pit?
6 I am weary of my groaning; * every night wash I my
bed, and water my couch with my tears.
7 My beauty is gone for very trouble, * and worn away
because of all mine enemies.
8 Away from me, all ye that work iniquity; * for the
LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The Lord hath heard my petition; * the Lord will
receive my prayer.
10 All mine enemies shall be confounded, and sore
vexed; * they shall be turned back, and put to shame suddenly.
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.
ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who hatest nothing that thou hast made and dost
forgive the sins of all them that are penitent: Create and make in us new and
contrite hearts, that we, worthily lamenting our sins, and acknowledging our
wretchedness, may obtain of thee, the God of all mercy, perfect remission and
forgiveness; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Collect is to be read every day in Lent after the Collect appointed for the
