Bright Wednesday

O God, you gladden our hearts by the annual celebration of the resurrection of our Lord: In your mercy grant that we, who now celebrate these joyous days on earth, may at length attain the eternal Easter in heaven; 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 Gelesian Sacramentary)

1 The Lord reigns; let the peoples tremble!
   He sits enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake!
2 The Lord is great in Zion;
   he is exalted over all the peoples.
3 Let them praise your great and awesome name!
   Holy is he!
4 The King in his might loves justice.
   You have established equity; you have executed justice
   and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt the Lord our God; worship at his footstool!
   Holy is he!
6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests,
   Samuel also was among those who called upon his name.
   They called to the Lord, and he answered them.
7 In the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them;
   they kept his testimonies and the statute that he gave them.
Psalm 99 – English Standard Version
