The Midday Office

Praise the LORD, for the LORD is good;* sing praises to his Name, for it is lovely.

Show us the light of your countenance, O God,* and come to us.

My God, My rock in whom I put my trust,* my shield, the horn of my salvation, and my refuge; you are worthy of my praise.

All nations you have made will come and worship you, O LORD,* and glorify your Name.

He was made visible in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed to the gentiles, believed in throughout the world, taken up in glory and at the due time will be revealed by God, the blessed and only Ruler of all, the King of kings and the Lord of lords, who alone is immortal, whose home is in inaccessible light, whom no human being has seen or is able to see; to him be honor and everlasting power. Amen.

All nations you have made will come and worship you, O LORD,* and glorify your Name.

I was glad when they said to me,* "Let us go to the house of the LORD." Now our feet are standing* within your gates, O Jerusalem. Jerusalem is built as a city* that is at unity with itself; To which the tribes go up, the tribes of the LORD,* the assembly of Israel, to praise the Name of the LORD. For there are the thrones of judgment,* the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem:* "May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls* and quietness within your towers. For my brethren and companions' sake,* I pray for your prosperity. Because of the house of the LORD our God,* I will seek to do you good."

All nations you have made will come and worship you, O LORD,* and glorify your Name.

Glory be to God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, so it is now and so it shall ever be, world without end. Alleluia. Amen.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be your Name. May your kingdom come, and your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for yours are the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Almighty God, who has given your only Son to be unto us both a sacrifice for sin and also an example of his godly life: Give me grace that I may always most thankfully receive that his inestimable benefit and also daily endeavor myself to follow the blessed steps of his most holy life; through the same your Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

O God, you make me glad with the weekly remembrance of the glorious resurrection of your Son my Lord: Give me this day such blessing through my worship of you, that the week to come may be spent in your favor; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
