Hymn: Rector potens, verax deus
O God of truth, O LORD of might,
who ord'rest time and change aright,
and send'st the early morning ray,
and light'st the glow of perfect day:
Extinguish thou each sinful fire,
and banish every ill desire;
and while thou keep'st the body whole,
shed forth thy peace upon the soul.
O Father, that we ask be done,
through Jesus Christ, thine only Son,
who, with the Holy Ghost and thee,
doth live and reign eternally.

Psalm 126 In convertendo
1 WHEN the LORD turned again the captivity of Sion, *
then were we like unto them that dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, *
and our tongue with joy.
3 Then said they among the heathen, *
The LORD hath done great things for them.
4 Yea, the LORD hath done great things for us already; *
whereof we rejoice.
5 Turn our captivity, O LORD, *
as the rivers in the south.
6 They that sow in tears *
shall reap in joy.
7 He that now goeth on his way weeping, and beareth forth good seed, *
shall doubtless come again with joy, and bring his sheaves with him.
1 When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, *
then were we like those who dream.
2 Then was our mouth filled with laughter, *
and our tongue with shouts of joy.
3 Then they said among the nations, *
"The LORD has done great things for them."
4 The LORD has done great things for us, *
and we are glad indeed.
5 Restore our fortunes, O LORD, *
like the watercourses of the Negev.
6 Those who sowed with tears *
will reap with songs of joy.
7 Those who go out weeping, carrying the seed, *
will come again with joy, shouldering their sheaves.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy SpiritGhost: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for everand ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; 2 Corinthians 5:17-18
