Bright Thursday

O God, you have made many nations, peoples and races one in the confession of your name: Grant that all who have been born again in the waters of Baptism may be united in faith and holiness of life; through your Son Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen
(From the Gregorian Sacramentary)

1 Clap your hands, all peoples!
   Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
2 For the Lord, the Most High, is to be feared,
   a great king over all the earth.
3 He subdued peoples under us,
   and nations under our feet.
4 He chose our heritage for us,
   the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
5 God has gone up with a shout,
   the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises!
   Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7 For God is the King of all the earth;
   sing praises with a psalm!
Psalm 47 – English Standard Version
