PSALMODY
Ant. 1 Give joy to your servant, Lord; to you I lift up my heart.
Psalm 86 The prayer of the poor man in distress Blessed be God who comforts us in all our trials (2 Corinthians 1:3, 4).
Turn your ear, O Lord, and give answer for I am poor and needy. Preserve my life, for I am faithful: save the servant who trusts in you.
You are my God, have mercy on me, Lord, for I cry to you all the day long. Give joy to your servant, O Lord, for to you I lift up my soul.
O Lord, you are good and forgiving, full of love to all who call. Give heed, O Lord, to my prayer and attend to the sound of my voice.
In the day of distress I will call and surely you will reply. Among the gods there is none like you, O Lord; nor work to compare with yours.
All the nations shall come to adore you and glorify your name, O Lord: for you are great and do marvelous deeds, you who alone are God.
Show me, Lord, your way so that I may walk in your truth. Guide my heart to fear your name.
I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart and glorify your name for ever; for your love to me has been great: you have saved me from the depths of the grave.
The proud have risen against me; ruthless men seek my life; to you they pay no heed.
But you, God of mercy and compassion, slow to anger, O Lord, abounding in love and truth, turn and take pity on me.
O give your strength to your servant and save your handmaid’s son. Show me the sign of your favor that my foes may see to their shame that you console me and give me your help.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: — as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Psalm-prayer
God of mercy and goodness, when Christ called out to you in torment, you heard him and gave him victory over death because of his love for you. We already know the affection you have for us; fill us with a greater love of your name, and we will proclaim you more boldly before men and happily lead them to celebrate your glory.
Ant. Give joy to your servant, Lord; to you I lift up my heart.
Ant.2 Blessed is the upright man, who speaks the truth.
Canticle – Isaiah 33:13-16 God’s flawless judgment What God has promised is for you, for your children, and for those still far away (Acts 2:39).
Hear, you who are far off, what I have done; you who are near, acknowledge my might.
