O GRACIOUS Father, who opens your hand and fills all things living with plenteousness; We ask of your infinite goodness to hear us, who now make our prayers and supplications unto you. Remember not our sins, but your promises of mercy. Pledge to bless the lands and multiply the harvests of the world. Let your breath go forth that it may renew the face of the earth. Show your loving-kindness, that our land may give her increase; and so fill us with good things that the poor and needy may give thanks unto your Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen. 1928 Book of Common Prayer

1 Praise the LORD.
Praise, O servants of the LORD,
praise the name of the LORD.
2 Let the name of the LORD be praised,
both now and forevermore.
3 From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets,
the name of the LORD is to be praised.
4 The LORD is exalted over all the nations,
his glory above the heavens.
5 Who is like the LORD our God,
the One who sits enthroned on high,
6 who stoops down to look
on the heavens and the earth?
Psalm 113 New International Version
