Philippians Canticle Let Every Tongue Proclaim

Who though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God something to be grasped.

Rather, he emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness; and found human in apprearance,

he humbled himself, becoming obedient to death, even death on a cross. Refrain

Because of this, God greatly exalted himand bestowed on him the name that is above every name,

that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend,of those in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Refrain

Magnificat My Soul Flies Free

The Sign of the Cross is made at the beginning of the first verse.

And Peace Shall Guard You Michael John Trotta (b.1978) © 2013, Morning Star Publishers. All rights reserved. Used with permission with OneLicense.net A-704048.

Peace shall guard you.In all things, with thanksgiving, make your need know and peace shall guard you.

It shall guard you, it shall guard your hearts and guard your minds.For nothing be anxious, but in all things, and with thanksgiving, make your needs know.

And peace shall guard you -M. J. T., Inspired by Philippians 4:6

Lector : The word of the Lord. Assembly: Thanks be to God.

A reading from the First Letter of Saint Peter 1:3-9 Even though you do not see him now yet believe in him.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who in his great mercy gave us a new birth to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you who by the power of God are safeguarded through faith, to a salvation that is ready to be revealed in the final time. In this you rejoice, although now for a little while you may have to suffer through various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith, more precious than gold that is perishable even though tested by fire, may prove to be for praise, glory, and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ. Although you have not seen him you love him; even though you do not see him now yet believe in him, you rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, as you attain the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
