who will shepherd my people Israel.’”MATTHEW 2:6
The Epiphany of our Lord(Service setting: Harris)
Opening Hymn: 89 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness
Worship continues on page 1 of the liturgy booklets.
The Collect: O God, who by the leading of a star didst manifest thy only-begotten Son to the Gentiles; Mercifully grant, that we, which know thee now by faith, may after this life have the fruition of thy glorious Godhead; through the same thy Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
New Testament Lesson: Ephesians 3:1-12For this reason I, Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus on behalf of you Gentiles—assuming that you have heard of the stewardship of God's grace that was given to me for you, how the mystery was made known to me by revelation, as I have written briefly. When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit. This mystery is that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.Of this gospel I was made a minister according to the gift of God's grace, which was given me by the working of his power. To me, though I am the very least of all the saints, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ, and to bring to light for everyone what is the plan of the mystery hidden for ages in God who created all things, so that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. This was according to the eternal purpose that he has realized in Christ Jesus our Lord, in whom we have boldness and access with confidence through our faith in him.
This is the word of the Lord.Thanks be to God.

Psalm 100
O BE joyful in the Lord ’ all ye ’ lands : serve the Lord with gladness, and come before his ’ presence ’ with a ’ song.2 Be ye sure that the Lord ’ he is ’ God : it is he that hath made us and not we ourselves, we are his ’ people • and the ’ sheep of his ’ pasture.3 O go your way into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his ’ courts with ’ praise : be thankful unto him and ’ speak good ’ of his ’ Name.4 For the Lord is gracious, his mercy is ’ ever’lasting : and his truth endureth from gene’ration to ’ gene’ration.
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. A ’ — ’ men.

The Gospel: St Matthew 2:1-12
Before the Gospel we sing: Glory to you, O LordNow after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” When Herod the king heard this, he was
- 3 –
troubled, and all Jerusalem with him; and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born.They told him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written by the prophet:
“‘And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,are by no means least among the rulers of
Judah;for from you shall come a ruler
who will shepherd my people Israel.’”Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star had appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him, bring me word, that I too may come and worship him.” After listening to the king, they went on their way. And behold, the star that they had seen when it rose went before them until it came to rest over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy. And going into the house they saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Then, opening their treasures, they offered him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh. And being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they departed to their own country by another way.
After the Gospel we sing: Praise to you, O Christ
