HYMN
Chorus:
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
In verdant pastures
he gives me repose;
Chorus:
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
Beside restful waters He leads me;
He refreshes my soul.
He guides me in right paths
for His nameβs sake.
Chorus:
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
You spread the table before me
in the sight of my foes;
you anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Only goodness and kindness follow me
all the days of my life;
and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord
for years to come.
Chorus:
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.
The Lord is my shepherd; There is nothing I shall want.

PSALMODY
Ant. 1 Seek the things of heaven, not those that are on the earth, alleluia.
Psalm 49
Emptiness of riches
It is difficult for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 19:23).
I
Hear this, all you peoples,
give heed, all who dwell in the world,
men both high and low,
rich and poor alike!
My lips will speak words of wisdom.
My heart is full of insight.
I will turn my mind to a parable,
with the harp I will solve my problem.
Why should I fear in evil days
the malice of the foes who surround me,
men who trust in their wealth,
and boast of the vastness of their riches?
For no man can buy his own ransom,
or pay a price to God for his life.
The ransom of his soul is beyond him.
He cannot buy life without end,
nor avoid coming to the grave.
He knows that wise men and fools must both perish
and must leave their wealth to others.
Their graves are their homes for ever,
their dwelling place from age to age,
though their names spread wide through the land.
In his riches, man lacks wisdom;
he is like the beasts that are destroyed.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
β as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. Seek the things of heaven, not those that are on the earth, alleluia.
Ant. 2 The Lord has rescued my life from the power of hell, alleluia.
II
This is the lot of those who trust in themselves,
who have others at their beck and call.
Like sheep they are driven to the grave,
where death shall be their shepherd
and the just shall become their rulers.
With the morning their outward show vanishes
and the grave becomes their home.
But God will ransom me from death
and take my soul to himself.
Then do not fear when a man grows rich,
when the glory of his house increases.
He takes nothing with him when he dies,
his glory does not follow him below.
Though he flattered himself while he lived:
βMen will praise me for all my success,β
yet he will go to join his fathers,
who will never see the light any more.
In his riches, man lacks wisdom;
he is like the beasts that are destroyed.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
β as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Psalm-prayer
You condemned the rich, Lord Jesus, because they have already received their reward, and you proclaimed the poor blessed because the kingdom of heaven is theirs. Teach us to seek for imperishable goods and to have confidence in your blood, poured out as the price of our redemption.
Ant. The Lord has rescued my life from the power of hell, alleluia.
Ant. 3 Yours, O Lord, is majesty and power, glory and triumph, alleluia.
Canticle β Revelation 4:11; 5:9, 10, 12
Redemption hymn
O Lord our God, you are worthy
to receive glory and honor and power.
For you have created all things;
by your will they came to be and were made.
Worthy are you, O Lord,
to receive the scroll and break open its seals.
For you were slain;
with your blood you purchased for God
men of every race and tongue,
of every people and nation.
You made of them a kingdom,
and priests to serve our God,
and they shall reign on the earth.
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power and riches,
wisdom and strength,
honor and glory and praise.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
β as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. Yours, O Lord, is majesty and power, glory and triumph, alleluia.
READING 1 Peter 2:4-5
Come to the Lord, a living stone, rejected by men but approved, nonetheless, and precious in Godβs eyes. You too are living stones, built as an edifice of spirit, into a holy priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
Sacred Silence (indicated by a bell) β a moment to reflect and receive in our hearts the full resonance of the voice of the Holy Spirit and to unite our personal prayer more closely with the word of God and public voice of the Church.
RESPONSORY
The disciples rejoiced, alleluia, alleluia.
β The disciples rejoiced, alleluia, alleluia.
When they saw the risen Lord,
β alleluia, alleluia.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
β The disciples rejoiced, alleluia, alleluia.
CANTICLE OF MARY
Ant. Did not our hearts burn within us as Jesus talked to us on the road? alleluia.
Luke 1:46-55
The soul rejoices in the Lord
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.
He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he has remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children for ever.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now,
and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. Did not our hearts burn within us as Jesus talked to us on the road? alleluia.
INTERCESSIONS
By his resurrection Christ has given sure hope to his people. Let us ask him with our whole hearts:
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Lord Jesus, from your wounded side flowed blood and water,
β make the Church your spotless bride.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Chief shepherd, after your resurrection you made Peter shepherd of your flock when he professed his love for you,
β increase from day to day the love and devotion of Francis, our Pope.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
You showed your disciples how to make a great catch of fish,
β send others to continue their work as fishers of men.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
At the lakeside you prepared bread and fish for your disciples,
β grant that we may never allow others to die of hunger.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Jesus, the new Adam and life-giving spirit, transform the dead into your own likeness,
β that the fullness of your joy may be theirs.
Lord Jesus, you live for ever; hear our prayer.
Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
Concluding Prayer
Enable us,
we pray, almighty God,
to proclaim the power of the risen Lord,
that we, who have received the pledge of his gift,
may come to possess all he gives when it is fully revealed.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God, for ever and ever.
β Amen.
DISMISSAL
May the Lord bless us,
protect us from all evil and bring us to everlasting life.
β Amen.
