O God, we thank you for the
glorious company of the apostles, and especially on this day for Simon and
Jude; and we pray that, as they were faithful and zealous in their mission, so
we may with ardent devotion make known the love and mercy of our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for
ever and ever. + Amen
89 Forever, O Lord,
your word
is firmly fixed in the heavens.
90 Your faithfulness endures to all generations;
you have established the earth, and it stands fast.
91 By your appointment they stand this day,
for all things are your servants.
92 If your law had not been my delight,
I would have perished in my affliction.
93 I will never forget your precepts,
for by them you have given me life.
94 I am yours; save me,
for I have sought your precepts.
95 The wicked lie in wait to destroy me,
but I consider your testimonies.
96 I have seen a limit to all perfection,
but your commandment is exceedingly broad.
