Margaret of Scotland

Lord, you gave your servant Margaret of Scotland a special love for the poor: Give to us, we pray, that same love, that we may be living signs of your goodness and at the last attain the glorious crown of your saints; we ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and for ever.

1 Praise the Lord!
Happy are those who fear the Lord,
who greatly delight in his commandments.
2 Their descendants will be mighty in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.
3 Wealth and riches are in their houses,
and their righteousness endures for ever.
4 They rise in the darkness as a light for the upright;
they are gracious, merciful, and righteous.
5 It is well with those who deal generously and lend,
who conduct their affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will never be moved;
they will be remembered for ever.
Psalm 112 – New Revised Standard Version
