Christian Prayer:
Evening Prayer for Friday in Ordinary Time
God, come to my assistance.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
HYMN
The hours are passing swiftly by,
The burden and the heat of day
Lord Jesus Christ, you call us now
All glory, Lord, to you we bring,
PSALMODY
Ant. 1 Lord, keep my soul from death, never let me stumble.
Psalm 116
I love the Lord for he has heard
They surrounded me, the snares of death,
O Lord my God, deliver me!
How gracious is the Lord, and just;
Turn back, my soul, to your rest
I will walk in the presence of the Lord
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
Psalm-prayer
God of power and mercy, through your Son’s passion and resurrection you have freed us from the bonds of death and the anguish of separation from you. Be ever with us on our pilgrimage; then we shall sing rather than weep. Keep our feet from stumbling, so that we may be able to follow you until we come to eternal rest.
Ant. Lord, keep my soul from death, never let me stumble.
Ant. 2 My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Psalm 121
I lift up my eyes to the mountains:
May he never allow you to stumble!
The Lord is your guard and your shade,
The Lord will guard you from evil,
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
Psalm-prayer
Lord Jesus Christ, you have prepared a quiet place for us in your Father’s eternal home. Watch over our welfare on this perilous journey, shade us from the burning heat of day, and keep our lives free of evil until the end.
Ant. My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Ant. 3 King of all the ages, your ways are perfect and true.
Canticle – Revelation 15:3-4
Mighty and wonderful are your works,
Who would dare refuse you honor,
Since you alone are holy,
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
Ant. King of all the ages, your ways are perfect and true.
READING 1 Corinthians 2:7-10a
What we utter is God’s wisdom: a mysterious, a hidden wisdom. God planned it before all ages for our glory. None of the rulers of this age knew the mystery; if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory. Of this wisdom it is written:
“Eye has not seen, ear has not heard
Yet God has revealed this wisdom to us through the Spirit.
Sacred Silence (indicated by a bell)
RESPONSORY
Christ died for our sins to make of us an offering to God.
He died to this world of sin, and rose in the power of the Spirit.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,
CANTICLE OF MARY
Ant. Remember your mercy, Lord, the promise of mercy you made to our fathers.
Luke 1:46-55
My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
He has mercy on those who fear him
He has shown the strength of his arm,
He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
He has filled the hungry with good things,
He has come to the help of his servant Israel
Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
Ant. Remember your mercy, Lord, the promise of mercy you made to our fathers.
INTERCESSIONS
Let us bless Christ, the compassionate and merciful Lord, who wipes away the tears of those who weep. Let us cry out to him in love and ask:
Lord Jesus, you console the humble,
Merciful God, hear the cries of the dying,
Make exiles aware of your providential care,
Be merciful to sinners who have fallen away from your love,
Save our brothers who have died,
Our Father who art in heaven,
Concluding Prayer
God our Father,
