A reading from the letter of the blessed Apostle Paul to the Philippians.
Brethren: Rejoice in the Lord always. I shall say it again: rejoice!
Your kindness should be known to all.
The Lord is near. Have no anxiety at all, but in everything,
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
make your requests known to God.
Then the peace of God that surpasses all understanding
will guard your hearts and minds
in Christ Jesus our Lord.
℣. The Word of the Lord. ℟. Thanks be to God.

It is truly right and just, our duty and our salvation,
always and everywhere to give You thanks,
Lord, holy Father, almighty and eternal God.
For when Your only-begotten Son appeared in our mortal substance,
He repaired us with the new light of His immortality.
And so, with Angels and Archangels,
with Thrones and Dominions,
and with all the hosts and Powers of heaven,
we sing the hymn of Your glory,
as without end we acclaim:
