Invitatory psalm

O Lord, open my lips.
And my mouth will proclaim your praise.

Come, let us worship the Lamb of God, whom John preceded in his passion.

The Lord’s is the earth and its fullness, the world and all who live in it.
He himself founded it upon the seas and set it firm over the waters.

Come, let us worship the Lamb of God, whom John preceded in his passion.

Who will climb the mountain of the Lord? Who will stand in his holy place?
The one who is innocent of wrongdoing and pure of heart,
who has not given himself to vanities or sworn falsely.
He will receive the blessing of the Lord and be justified by God his saviour.
This is the way of those who seek him, seek the face of the God of Jacob.

Come, let us worship the Lamb of God, whom John preceded in his passion.

Gates, raise your heads. Stand up, eternal doors, and let the king of glory enter.
Who is the king of glory?
The Lord of might and power. The Lord, strong in battle.

Come, let us worship the Lamb of God, whom John preceded in his passion.

Gates, raise your heads. Stand up, eternal doors, and let the king of glory enter.
Who is the king of glory?
The Lord of hosts – he is the king of glory

Come, let us worship the Lamb of God, whom John preceded in his passion.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
