Vespers - January 27, 2021
Order of Service: - Prelude - The Versicles (pp. 120-121) - Choir: Psalm 84 setting by Frenand de la Tombelle: Lovely are thy dwellings, O Lord, thy habitation, My soul cries out for thee, O Lord, with exaltation. Sparrows and swallows make their nest At thine altars, O Lord of hosts. Blessed are those who dwell with thee, They sing thy praises now and forever. For the Lord our God is our sun, our shield forever He grants to us all that we need by his good favor. One day within thy courts, O Lord, Is far better than thousands elsewhere. Blessed are those who trust in thee, They go from strength to strength in thy presence. My King and my God. - 2 Peter 1:16-21: For we did not follow cunningly devised fables when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of His majesty. For He received from God the Father honor and glory when such a voice came to Him from the Excellent Glory: “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” And we heard this voice which came from heaven when we were with Him on the holy mountain. And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; knowing this first, that no prophecy of Scripture is of any private interpretation, for prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. - Homily - The Versicle (p. 122) - The Nunc Dimittis (p. 124) - The Kyrie (p. 124) - The Lord's Prayer (p. 125) - Hymn 584 - Grant Peace, We Pray, in Mercy, Lord - The Collect (pp. 125-127) - The Benedicamus (p. 127) - The Benediction (p. 127) - Hymn 581 - Draw Us To Thee, in Mind and Heart - Postlude Service Participants: Chaplain Don Moldstad (Preacher), Rev.
