Hymn: TiS 145

1. The king of love my shepherd is,

whose goodness faileth never;

I nothing lack if I am his

and he is mine for ever.

2. Where streams of living water

flow

my ransomed soul he leadeth,

and where the verdant pastures

grow

with food celestial feedeth.

3. Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,

but yet in love he sought me,

and on his shoulder gently laid,

and home rejoicing brought me.

4. In death’s dark vale I fear no ill

with thee, dear Lord, beside me;

thy rod and staff my comfort still,

thy cross before to guide me.

5. Thou spread’st a table in my sight;

thy unction grace bestoweth;

and O what transport of delight

from thy pure chalice floweth!

6. And so through all the length of

days

thy goodness faileth never:

good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise

within thy house for ever.

Henry Williams Baker

1821–77

based on Psalm 23

Greeting: The Lord be with you.

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

Sentence: As he went ashore, Jesus saw a great crowd; and he had

compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd;

and he began to teach them many things. Mark 6.34

3

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 (Kew Setting)

4

The Confession

Let us confess our sins in penitence and faith, confident in God's

forgiveness.

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.

5

Prayer of the Day

Eternal God,

author of our life and end of our pilgrimage:

guide us by your word and Spirit

amid all perils and temptations,

that we may not wander from your way,

but may run our course in safety

until we come to our eternal rest in you;

through the grace of Jesus Christ our Lord,

who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,

one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD

Readings from 'New Revised Standard Version' (NRSV)

First Reading: 2 SAMUEL 7.1-14

1Now when the king was settled in his house, and the Lord had given him rest

from all his enemies around him, 2the king said to the prophet Nathan, ‘See

now, I am living in a house of cedar, but the ark of God stays in a

tent.’ 3Nathan said to the king, ‘Go, do all that you have in mind; for the

Lord is with you.’ 4But that same night the word of the Lord came to

Nathan: 5Go and tell my servant David: Thus says the Lord : Are you the one

to build me a house to live in? 6I have not lived in a house since the day I

brought up the people of Israel from Egypt to this day, but I have been

moving about in a tent and a tabernacle. 7Wherever I have moved about

among all the people of Israel, did I ever speak a word with any of the tribal

leaders of Israel, whom I commanded to shepherd my people Israel, saying,

‘Why have you not built me a house of cedar?’ 8Now therefore thus you

shall say to my servant David: Thus says the Lord of hosts: I took you from the

pasture, from following the sheep to be prince over my people Israel; 9and I

have been with you wherever you went, and have cut off all your enemies

from before you; and I will make for you a great name, like the name of the

great ones of the earth. 10

And I will appoint a place for my people Israel and

will plant them, so that they may live in their own place, and be disturbed no

more; and evildoers shall afflict them no more, as formerly, 11

from the time

that I appointed judges over my people Israel; and I will give you rest from all

your enemies. Moreover, the Lord declares to you that the Lord will make

you a house. 12

When your days are fulfilled and you lie down with your

ancestors, I will raise up your offspring after you, who shall come forth from

your body, and I will establish his kingdom. 13

He shall build a house for my

name, and I will establish the throne of his kingdom for ever. 14

I will be a

father to him, and he shall be a son to me. When he commits iniquity, I will

punish him with a rod such as mortals use, with blows inflicted by human

beings.

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

7

Psalm: 89.21-30

21 ‘I have found my servant David:

and anointed him with my holy oil.

22 ‘My hand shall uphold him:

and my arm shall strengthen him.

23 ‘No enemy shall deceive him:

nor shall the wicked hurt him.

24 ‘I will crush his adversaries before him:

and strike down those that hate him.

25 ‘My faithfulness and loving-kindness shall be with him:

and through my name his head shall be lifted high.

26 ‘I will set the hand of his dominion upon the Western Sea:

and his right hand shall stretch to the streams of Mesopotamia.

27 ‘He will call to me “You are my Father:

my God, and the rock of my salvation.”

28 ‘I will make him my first-born son:

and highest among the kings of the earth.

29 ‘I will ever maintain my loving-kindness toward him:

and my covenant with him shall stand firm.

30 ‘I will establish his line for ever:

and his throne like the days of heaven.

Second Reading: EPHESIANS 2.11-22

11Therefore, remember that formerly you who are Gentiles by birth and

called ‘uncircumcised’ by those who call themselves ‘the circumcision’ (which

is done in the body by human hands) – 12

remember that at that time you

were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners

to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the

world. 13

But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been

brought near by the blood of Christ. 14

For he himself is our peace, who has

made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of

hostility, 15

by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and

regulations. His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of

the two, thus making peace, 16

and in one body to reconcile both of them to

God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility. 17

He came

and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were

8

near. 18

For through him we both have access to the Father by one

Spirit. 19

Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow

citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, 20

built on the

foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the

chief cornerstone. 21

In him the whole building is joined together and rises to

become a holy temple in the Lord. 22

And in him you too are being built

together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.

Response: Hear the word of the Lord,

THANKS BE TO GOD

Gradual Hymn: TiS 349

1. In the cross of Christ I glory,

towering o’er the wrecks of time;

all the light of sacred story

gathers round its head sublime.

2. Through the cross, Christ’s love

empowers us

worldliness and self deny;

by his Spirit it inspires us

him, through love, to glorify.

3. When the woes of life o’ertake us,

hopes deceive and fears annoy,

never shall the cross forsake us,

from it shines our peace and joy.

4. Bane and blessing, pain and

pleasure,

by the cross are sanctified;

peace is there that knows no

measure,

joys that through all time abide.

5. In the cross of Christ I glory,

towering o’er the wrecks of time;

all the light of sacred story

gathers round its head sublime.

John Bowring 1792–1872 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 Mark chapter 6

beginning at the 30th

verse.

GLORY TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.

30

The apostles gathered around Jesus, and told him all that they had done

and taught. 31

He said to them, ‘Come away to a deserted place all by

yourselves and rest a while.’ For many were coming and going, and they had

no leisure even to eat. 32

And they went away in the boat to a deserted place

by themselves. 33

Now many saw them going and recognized them, and they

hurried there on foot from all the towns and arrived ahead of them. 34

As he

went ashore, he saw a great crowd; and he had compassion for them,

because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach

them many things. 53

When they had crossed over, they came to land at

Gennesaret and moored the boat. 54

When they got out of the boat, people

at once recognized him, 55

and rushed about that whole region and began to

bring the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. 56

And wherever he

went, into villages or cities or farms, they laid the sick in the market-places,

and begged him that they might touch even the fringe of his cloak; and all

who touched it were healed.

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.

1. Eternal Father, strong to save,

whose arm hast bound the restless

wave,

who bidst the mighty ocean deep

its own appointed limits keep:

O hear us when we cry to thee

for those in peril on the sea.

2. O Christ, whose voice the waters

heard

and hushed their raging at thy word,

who walkedst on the foaming deep,

and calm amid the storm didst keep:

O hear us when we cry to thee

for those in peril on the sea.

3. O Holy Spirit, who didst brood

upon the waters dark and rude,

and bid their angry tumult cease,

and give for wild confusion, peace:

O hear us when we cry to thee

for those in peril on the sea.

4. O Trinity of love and power,

our people shield in danger’s hour

from rock and tempest, fire and foe,

guard them wherever they may go:

thus evermore shall rise to thee

glad hymns of praise from land and

sea.

bread of heaven, bread of heaven,

feed me now and evermore,

feed me now and evermore.

2. Open now the crystal fountain

whence the living waters flow:

let the fiery, cloudy pillar

lead me all my journey through:

strong deliverer, strong deliverer,

be thou still my strength and shield,

be thou still my strength and shield.

3. When I tread the verge of Jordan

bid my anxious fears subside;

death of death, and hell’s

destruction,

land me safe on Canaan’s side:

songs of praises, songs of praises

I will ever give to thee,

I will ever give to thee.
