Leader: O Lord, open my lips. All: And my mouth shall declare your praise.
Come, let us worship before the Lord, our maker.

Psalm 98

Sing a new song to the Lord
for he has worked wonders.
His right hand and his holy arm
have brought salvation.

The Lord has made known his salvation;
has shown his justice to the nations.
He has remembered his truth and love
for the house of Israel.

All the ends of the earth have seen
the salvation of our God.
Shout to the Lord, all the earth,
ring out your joy.

Sing psalms to the Lord with the harp
with the sound of music.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn
acclaim the King, the Lord.

Let the sea and all within it, thunder;
the world, and all its peoples.
Let the rivers clap their hands
and the hills ring out their joy.

Rejoice at the presence of the Lord:
for he comes to rule the earth.
He will rule the world with justice
and the peoples with fairness.

Reading: Romans 12:1-2

Brothers, I beg you through the mercy of God to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice holy and acceptable to God, your spiritual worship. Do not conform yourselves to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, so that you may judge what is God’s will, what is good, pleasing and perfect.

Pray either the Canticle of Zechariah or the Canticle of Mary. You can find them here.
Antiphon for the Canticle of Zechariah:      Show us your mercy, Lord; remember your holy covenant.
Antiphon for the Canticle of Mary:        The Almighty has done great things for me, and holy is his Name.

Lord have mercy on us!
Forgive us for the times that we fall.
Lord have mercy on us!

Lord have mercy on us!

Dear Jesus,
May our lives reflect your goodness to the world. We ask the Father for this in your name in union with the Holy Spirit. Amen.
