Hymn: TiS 449

1. Stand up and bless the Lord,

you people of his choice;

stand up and bless the Lord your

God

with heart, and soul, and voice.

2. Though high above all praise,

above all blessing high,

who would not fear his holy

name,

and praise and magnify?

3. O for the living flame

from his own altar brought,

to touch our lips, our minds

inspire,

and wing to heaven our thought!

4. God is our strength and song,

and his salvation ours;

then be his love in Christ

proclaimed

with all our ransomed powers.

5. Stand up and bless the Lord,

the Lord your God adore;

stand up and bless his glorious

name,

henceforth for evermore.

James Montgomery

1771–1854 alt.

Greeting: The Lord be with you.

AND ALSO WITH YOU. (see Ruth 2:4)

4

Sentence: Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, and was

buried, and was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and

appeared to many. 1 Corinthians 15.3–4

Prayer of Preparation:

As we gather as God's people let us pray together:

Almighty God, to whom all hearts are open,

all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hidden:

cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration

of your Holy Spirit,

that we may perfectly love you,

and worthily magnify your holy name,

through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Summary of the Commandments:

‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the

Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your

mind, and with all your strength.’ Jesus said: ‘This is the great and first

commandment. And a second is like it: you shall love your neighbour as

yourself.’

Kyrie eleison (Dudman)

5

The Confession

Christ the grace of God has dawned upon the world with healing for all.

Let us bring our weaknesses and infirmities to him, confessing our sins in

penitence and faith.

Merciful God, our maker and our judge,

we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed,

and in what we have failed to do:

we have not loved you with our whole heart;

we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves;

we repent, and are sorry for all our sins.

Father, forgive us. Strengthen us to love and obey you

in newness of life; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Absolution (Celebrant)

Almighty God, who has promised forgiveness to all who turn to

him in faith: pardon you and set you free from all your sins,

strengthen you in all goodness and keep you in eternal life,

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Gloria [Dudman]

Prayer of the Day

Most holy God, in whose presence angels serve in awe, and whose glory fills all

heaven and earth: cleanse our unclean lips and transform us by your grace so

that your word spoken through us may bring many to your salvation; through

Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy

Spirit, God for ever and ever. Amen.

THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD

Readings from 'New Revised Standard Version' (NRSV)

First Reading: Isaiah 6.1-8

In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and

lofty; and the hem of his robe filled the temple. 2Seraphs were in attendance

above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces, and with

two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. 3And one called to

another and said: ‘Holy, holy, holy is the LORD of hosts; the whole earth is full

of his glory.’ 4The pivots on the thresholds shook at the voices of those who called, and the

house filled with smoke. 5And I said: ‘Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of

unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen

the King, the LORD of hosts!’

6 Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken

from the altar with a pair of tongs. 7The seraph touched my mouth with it and

said: ‘Now that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin

is blotted out.’ 8Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send,

and who will go for us?’ And I said, ‘Here am I; send me!’

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

8

Psalm: 138

1 I will give you thanks, O Lord, with my whole heart:

even before the gods will I sing your praises.

2 I will bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name:

because of your faithfulness and your loving-kindness, for you have made

your name and your word supreme over all things.

3 At a time when I called to you, you gave me answer:

and put new strength within my soul.

4 All the kings of the earth shall praise you, O Lord:

for they have heard the words of your mouth;

5 And they shall sing of the ways of the Lord:

that the glory of the Lord is great.

6 For though the Lord is exalted, he looks upon the lowly:

and he comprehends the proud from afar.

7 Though I walk in the midst of danger, yet will you preserve my life:

you will stretch out your hand against the fury of my enemies, and your right

hand shall save me.

8 The Lord will complete his purpose for me:

your loving-kindness, O Lord, endures for ever; do not forsake the work of

your own hands.

Second Reading: 1 Corinthians 15.1-11

Now I should remind you, brothers and sisters, of the good newsthat I

proclaimed to you, which you in turn received, in which also you

stand, 2through which also you are being saved, if you hold firmly to the

message that I proclaimed to you—unless you have come to believe in vain.

3 For I handed on to you as of first importance what I in turn had received:

that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures,4and that he was

buried, and that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the

scriptures, 5and that he appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

6Then he

appeared to more than five hundred brothers and sisters at one time, most of

whom are still alive, though some have died. 7Then he appeared to James,

then to all the apostles. 8Last of all, as to someone untimely born, he

appeared also to me. 9For I am the least of the apostles, unfit to be called an

apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10

But by the grace of God I

9

am what I am, and his grace towards me has not been in vain. On the

contrary, I worked harder than any of them—though it was not I, but the

grace of God that is with me. 11

Whether then it was I or they, so we proclaim

and so you have come to believe.

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

Gradual Hymn: TiS 509

1. Come now, everlasting Spirit,

bring to every thankful mind

all the Saviour’s dying merit,

sufferings all for humankind;

2. true Recorder of his passion,

now the living faith impart,

now reveal his great salvation,

preach his gospel to our heart.

3. Come as Witness of his dying;

come Remembrancer divine,

let us feel your power, applying

Christ to every soul, and mine.

Charles Wesley

1707–88 alt.

We stand for the reading of the Holy Gospel as a sign of respect as we

greet our Lord who is present in His Holy Word.

The Lord be with you

AND ALSO WITH YOU

The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to Saint Luke chapter 5

beginning at the 11

th verse.

GLORY TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.

Once while Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd

was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, 2he saw two boats there at

the shore of the lake; the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing

their nets. 3He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and

asked him to put out a little way from the shore. Then he sat down and taught

the crowds from the boat. 4When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon,

‘Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch.’ 5Simon

answered, ‘Master, we have worked all night long but have caught nothing.

Yet if you say so, I will let down the nets.’ 6When they had done this, they

caught so many fish that their nets were beginning to break. 7So they signalled

to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and

filled both boats, so that they began to sink. 8But when Simon Peter saw it, he

fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, ‘Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful

man!’ 9For he and all who were with him were amazed at the catch of fish that

they had taken; 10

and so also were James and John, sons of Zebedee, who

were partners with Simon. Then Jesus said to Simon, ‘Do not be afraid; from

now on you will be catching people.’11

When they had brought their boats to

shore, they left everything and followed him.

Gospel response: This is the gospel of the Lord,

PRAISE TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST

• SERMON - (copy of sermon available at back of church)

The Nicene Creed

Let us together affirm the faith of the Church.

We believe in one God,

the Father, the almighty,

maker of heaven and earth,

of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,

the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father,

God from God, Light from Light,

true God from true God, begotten, not made,

of one Being with the Father;

through him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven,

was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary

and became truly human.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;

he suffered death and was buried.

On the third day he rose again

in accordance with the Scriptures;

he ascended into heaven

and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge

the living and the dead,

and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,

who proceeds from the Father and the Son,

who with the Father and the Son

is worshipped and glorified,

who has spoken through the prophets.

We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.

We look for the resurrection of the dead,

and the life of the world to come. Amen.
