Psalm 63 (antiphon v. 3a)

1 O God, you are my | God;

earnestly I | seek you;*

my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for | you,

as in a dry and weary land where there is no | water. 2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctu- | ary,*

beholding your power and | glory. 3 Because your steadfast love is better than | life,*

my lips will | praise you. 4 So I will bless you as long as I | live;*

in your name I will lift up my | hands. 5 My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich | food,*

and my mouth will praise you with joyful | lips, 6 when I remember you upon my | bed,*

and meditate on you in the watches of the | night; 7 for you have been my | help,*

and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for | joy. 8 My soul clings to | you;*

your right hand up- | holds me. 9 But those who seek to destroy my | life*

shall go down into the depths of the | earth; 10 they shall be given over to the power of the | sword;*

they shall be a portion for | jackals. 11 But the king shall rejoice in | God;*

all who swear by him shall exult, for the mouths of liars will be | stopped.

Glory be to the Father and to the | Son*

and to the Holy | Spirit;

as it was in the be- | ginning,*

is now, and will be forever. A- | men.

Psalmody Sing to the Lord a New Song (Psalm 98) Johann Pachelbel Edited by Donald Rotermund

Sing to the Lord a new song; Sing to the Lord, all the earth, O praise his name so holy. He has done wonders.

With his omnipotent hand and holy arm The Lord has revealed his salvation to the nations. He remembered his love and mercy.

All the earth now has seen his salvation. Shout for joy, rejoice, sing aloud, all you people. Before the nations acclaim him. Sing his praises clear, all you people. Alleluia! Shout for joy to the Lord.

First Reading Ephesians 6:10–20 P O Lord, have mercy on us. C Thanks be to God. Stand Office Hymn 403 O Savior of Our Fallen Race The choir sings stanzas 3 and 5.

Sit Cantata Ein’ feste Burg ist unser Gott (BWV 80) Johann Sebastian Bach

1. Chorus Ein’ feste Burg ist unser Gott, ein’ gute Wehr und Waffen; er hilft uns frei aus aller Not, die uns jetzt hat betroffen. Der alte böse Feind, mit Ernst ers itzt meint, groß Macht und viel List sein grausam Rüstung ist, auf Erd ist nicht seinsgleichen.

A mighty fortress is our God, A trusty shield and weapon; He helps us free from ev’ry need That hath us now o’ertaken. The old evil foe Now means deadly woe; Deep guile and great might Are his dread arms in fight; On earth is not his equal.

2. Duet (Bass Aria, Soprano Chorale) Alles, was von Gott geboren, ist zum Siegen auserkoren. Mit unser Macht ist nichts getan, wir sind gar bald verloren. Es streit’ für uns der rechte Mann, den Gott selbst hat erkoren. Wer bei Christi Blutpanier, in der Taufe Treu geschworen, siegt im Geiste für und für. Fragst du, wer er ist? Er heißt Jesus Christ, der Herre Zebaoth, und ist kein ander Gott, das Feld muss er behalten. Alles, was von Gott geboren, ist zum Siegen auserkoren. 3. Recitative (Bass) Erwäge doch, Kind Gottes, die so große Liebe, da Jesus sich mit seinem Blute dir

verschriebe, womit er dich zum Siege wider Satans Heer und wider Welt und Sünde geworben hat. Gib nicht in deiner Seele dem Satan und den Lastern statt! Laß nicht dein Herz, den Himmel Gottes auf der Erden, zur Wüste werden! Bereue deine Schuld mit Schmerz, daß Christi Geist mit dir sich fest verbinde,

4. Aria (Soprano) Komm in mein Herzenshaus, Herr Jesu, mein Verlangen! Treib’ Welt und Satan aus, und dein Bild in mir erneuert prangen! Weg, schnöder Sünden Graus! Komm in mein Herzenshaus. Herr Jesu, mein Verlangen!

All that are born of God Are chosen for victory. With might of ours can naught be done, Soon were our loss effected; But for us fights the valiant One, Whom God Himself elected. Whoever is connected with the banner of Christ’s blood, Has vowed at Baptism to remain faithful, And will be forever victorious in the Spirit. Ask ye, Who is this? Jesus Christ it is, Of Sabaoth Lord, And there’s none other God; He holds the field forever. All that are born of God Are chosen for victory. Consider, O child of God, with how much love, Jesus has pledged himself to you by his own blood; How by his blood he has enlisted you for war Against Satan’s army, world, and sin. Do not in your soul Succumb to Satan and vice! Do not allow that your heart Transform from God’s dwelling place on earth Into a wasteland! Repent of your sin with sorrow, so that Christ’s Spirit is closely united with you.

Come into the dwelling of my heart, Lord Jesus, my desire. Drive world and Satan away, and let your image shine forth anew within me. Be gone, despicable horror of sin! Come into the dwelling of my heart, Lord Jesus, my desire.

5. Chorale Und wenn die Welt voll Teufel wär’ Und wollt’ uns gar verschlingen, So fürchten wir uns nicht so sehr, Es soll uns doch gelingen. Der Fürst dieser Welt, Wie saur er sich stellt, Tut er uns doch nicht, Das macht, er ist gericht’, Ein Wörtlein kann ihn fällen.

Though devils all the world should fill, All eager to devour us, We tremble not, we fear no ill; They shall not overpow’r us. This world’s prince may still Scowl fierce as he will, He can harm us none. He’s judged; the deed is done; One little word can fell him.

6. Recitative (Tenor) So stehe dann bei, Christi blutgefärbten

Fahne, O Seele, fest, und glaube, daß dein Haupt dich nicht

verläßt, ja, daß sein Sieg auch dir den Weg zu deiner Krone bahne. Tritt freudig an den Krieg! Wirst du nur Gottes Wort, so hören als bewahren, so wird der Feind gezwungen auszufahren, dein Heiland bleibt dein Heil, dein Heiland bleibt dein Hort.

7. Aria (Alto and Tenor) Wie selig sind doch sie, die Gott im Munde tragen;

doch sel’ger ist das Herz, das ihn im Glauben trägt. Es bleibet unbesiegt und kann die Feinde schlagen. Und wird zuletzt gekrönt, wenn es den Tod erlegt.

So stand firmly then, by Christ’s bloodstained

banner, O my soul, And believe that your Head will not desert you. Indeed, his victory will pave your way To your own crown. March joyfully on to the battle. If you listen to God’s Word alone and keep it, the enemy will be forced to depart. Your Savior remains your salvation, Your Savior remains your refuge.

How blessed are they, who carry God in their mouths [i.e., whose conversation is of God] Even more blessed is the heart, Holding on to him in faith. It remains unconquered and can defeat the enemies, And will finally be crowned When it overcomes death.

8. Chorale Das Wort sie sollen lassen stahn Und kein Dank dazu haben. Er ist bei uns wohl auf dem Plan mit seinem Geist und Gaben.

The Word they still shall let remain Nor any thanks have for it; He’s by our side upon the plain With His good gifts and Spirit. (continued)

6

Nehmen sie uns den Leib, Gut, Ehr, Kind und Weib, Laß fahren dahin, Sie habens kein Gewinn, das Reich muß uns doch bleiben.

And take they our life, Goods, fame, child, and wife, Though these all be gone, Our vict’ry has been won; The Kingdom ours remaineth.

Sermon Magnificat Setting by Kenneth Kosche

The refrain is sung once by the choir and immediately repeated by the congregation. The congregation sings the refrain where indicated. Refrain

For he has regarded the lowliness of His handmaiden. For behold, from this day all generations will call me blessed. For the Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is His name; And His mercy is on those who fear Him from generation to generation.

Refrain

He has shown strength with His arm; He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts. He has cast down the mighty from their thrones and has exalted the lowly. He has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich He has sent empty away. He has helped His servant Israel in remembrance of His mercy as He spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and to his seed forever. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit; as it was in the beginning, is now and will be forever. Amen.

Refrain

Kneel Litany — LSB 249
