20th Matins

Psalm 61

Hear my cry, O God;
listen to my prayer.
From the end of the earth I call to you,
when my heart is faint.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I;
for you are my refuge,
a strong tower against the enemy.
Let me abide in your tent for ever,
find refuge under the shelter of your wings.Selah
For you, O God, have heard my vows;
you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
Prolong the life of the king;
may his years endure to all generations!
May he be enthroned for ever before God;
appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!
So I will always sing praises to your name,
as I pay my vows day after day.

Collect

Almighty God,
through your Son Jesus Christ you overcame death
and opened for us the gate of everlasting life;
grant us to die daily to sin,
that we may evermore live with him in the joy of his resurrection;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God now and for ever.
Amen.
