Prayer for Sunday
O God, you make us glad with the weekly remembrance of the glorious resurrection of your Son our Lord: Give us this day such blessing through our worship of you, that the week to come may be spent in your favor; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Psalm 24
The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it, *
the world and all who dwell therein.
For it is he who founded it upon the seas *
and made it firm upon the rivers of the deep.
“Who can ascend the hill of the Lord? *
and who can stand in his holy place?”
“Those who have clean hands and a pure heart, *
who have not pledged themselves to falsehood,
nor sworn by what is a fraud.
nor sworn by what is a fraud.
They shall receive a blessing from the Lord *
and a just reward from the God of their salvation.”
Such is the generation of those who seek him, *
of those who seek your face, O God of Jacob.
Lift up your heads, O gates;
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.
“Who is this King of glory?” *
“The Lord, strong and mighty,
the Lord, mighty in battle.”
the Lord, mighty in battle.”
Lift up your heads, O gates;
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
lift them high, O everlasting doors; *
and the King of glory shall come in.
“Who is he, this King of glory?” *
“The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory.”
he is the King of glory.”
