Introit

O GOD, || behold our shield, and look upon the face of Your a- | noint-

| ed. *

For a day in Your courts is better | than | a | thou- | sand. (Psalm 84:9–10a)

|| How lovely is Your tabernacle, O Lord of | hosts! | - *

My soul longs, yes, even faints for the | courts | of | the | Lord;

|| Blessed are those who dwell in Your | house; | - *

They will still | be | prais- | ing | You

|| I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my | God | - *

Than dwell in the tents | of | wick- | ed- | ness.

|| The Lord will give grace and | glo- | ry; *

No good thing will He withhold from those who | walk | up- | right- | ly. (Psalm 84: 1–2b, 4, 10b, 11b)

Collect

Keep, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy Church with Thy perpetual mercy; and because the frailty of man without Thee cannot but fall, keep us ever by Thy help from all things hurtful and lead us to all things profitable to our salvation; through Jesus Christ, Thy Son, our Lord, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen.

Old Testament Reading (TLH): Jer. 17:13-14

O Lord , the hope of Israel, All who forsake You shall be ashamed. “Those who depart from Me Shall be written in the earth, Because they have forsaken the Lord , The fountain of living waters.” Heal me, O Lord , and I shall be healed; Save me, and I shall be saved, For You are my praise.

First Reading: Gal. 5:16-24

I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

Second Reading: Luke 17:11-19

Now it happened as He went to Jerusalem that He passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. Then as He entered a certain village, there met Him ten men who were lepers, who stood afar off. And they lifted up their voices and said, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God, and fell down on his face at His feet, giving Him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. So Jesus answered and said, “Were there not ten cleansed? But where are the nine? Were there not any found who returned to give glory to God except this foreigner?” And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.”
