Commontide

For Mercy

Almighty God, you have not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities; grant that we, who for our evil deeds deserve to be punished, by the might of your grace may mercifully be relieved; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Psalm 112

Alleluia.

Praise the Lord! Blessed is the one who fears the Lord, who has great delight in his commandments.

His seed shall be mighty in the land; the generation of the faithful shall be blessed.

Riches and plenteousness shall be in his house, and his righteousness shall endure for ever.

For the upright, there rises light in the darkness; he is merciful, loving, and righteous.

It is good for him to be generous in lending and to guide his words with discretion.

For he shall never be moved, and the righteous shall be kept in everlasting remembrance.

He will not be afraid of any evil tidings, for his heart is steadfast and trusts in the Lord.

His heart is established, and will not fear; at the last he shall see his desire upon his enemies.

He has given freely to the poor, and his righteousness endures for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honor.

The ungodly shall see it, and shall be angry; he shall gnash his teeth, and waste away; the desire of the ungodly shall perish.
