May our psalmody be sweet before you; may justice go forth from your righteousness unto our weakness, and may your all-holy name be glorified. And may we be made worthy to stand in your commandment, to sing unto you blessing and glory, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and always, and [unto the ages of ages. Amen.]

[RUBRIC: Peace [be] unto all.]

Everlasting God, eternal God, who didst shine forth as light into this lower world and didst enlighten us [out] of our darksome sins; who for our sake camest into measure, O uncontainable God, and having poured forth didst spread the grace of thy Holy Spirit upon thy creatures: now and unto the ages of time thou art praised, O all-great God, with the Father and thy most Holy Spirit, now and always and unto the ages of ages. Amen.

[Psalm] 99. Shout to the Lord, all the earth; serve the Lord with gladness! Enter before him with exultation; know that he is the Lord our God. He made us, and not we [ourselves]; we are [his] people and the sheep of his pasture.
