Gloria

1. Glory be to God in heaven,

and to all on earth, his peace;

Lord and Father, King in glory,

gifts of praise in us release,

so our worship and thanksgiving

from our hearts will never cease.

2. Christ incarnate, sent by Father

to redeem, renew, restore;

risen Lamb, in glory seated,

hear our prayers, Lord, we implore.

Now to Father, Son and Spirit

be all glory evermore.

Words: John Richards (1843-1901) Music: Regent Square, Henry Thomas Smart (1813-1879)

Collect

O God the King of glory, you have exalted your only Son Jesus Christ

with great triumph to your kingdom in heaven:

we beseech you, leave us not comfortless,

but send your Holy Spirit to strengthen us

and exalt us to the place where our Saviour Christ is gone before,

who is alive and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit,

one God, now and for ever. Amen.

First Reading – Acts 1.15–17,21–26

In those days Peter stood up among the believers (together the crowd numbered about one

hundred and twenty people). He said, ‘Friends, the scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy

Spirit through David foretold concerning Judas, who became a guide for those who arrested

Jesus – for he was numbered among us and was allotted his share in this ministry. So one of the

men who have accompanied us throughout the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among

us, beginning from the baptism of John until the day when he was taken up from us – one of

these must become a witness with us to his resurrection.’ So they proposed two, Joseph called

Barsabbas, who was also known as Justus, and Matthias. Then they prayed and said, ‘Lord, you

know everyone’s heart. Show us which one of these two you have chosen to take the place in

this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place.’ And they

cast lots for them, and the lot fell on Matthias; and he was added to the eleven apostles.

Second Reading – 1 John 5.9–13*

If we receive human testimony, the testimony of God is greater; for this is the testimony of

God that he has testified to his Son. Those who believe in the Son of God have the

testimony in their hearts. Those who do not believe in God have made him a liar by not

believing in the testimony that God has given concerning his Son. And this is the testimony:

God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever

does not have the Son of God does not have life. I write these things to you who believe in

the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life.

Gospel – John 17.6–19

Jesus looked up to heaven and prayed: ‘Father, I have made your name known to those whom

you gave me from the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have kept

your word. Now they know that everything you have given me is from you; for the words that

you gave to me I have given to them, and they have received them and know in truth that I

came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. I am asking on their behalf; I am not

asking on behalf of the world, but on behalf of those whom you gave me, because they are

yours. All mine are yours, and yours are mine; and I have been glorified in them. And now I am

no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect

them in your name that you have given me, so that they may be one, as we are one. While I was

with them, I protected them in your name that you have given me. I guarded them, and not one

of them was lost except the one destined to be lost, so that the scripture might be fulfilled. But

now I am coming to you, and I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy

made complete in themselves. I have given them your word, and the world has hated them

because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. I am not asking

you to take them out of the world, but I ask you to protect them from the evil one. They do

not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world. Sanctify them in the truth; your

word is truth. As you have sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. And for

their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they also may be sanctified in truth.’

Offertory Hymn

1. Name of all majesty,

fathomless mystery,

King of all ages

by angels adored;

power and authority,

splendour and dignity,

bow to his mastery,

Jesus is Lord!

2. Child of our destiny,

God from eternity,

love of the Father

on sinners outpoured;

see now what God has done

sending his only Son,

Christ the beloved One,

Jesus is Lord!

3. Saviour of Calvary,

costliest victory,

darkness defeated

and Eden restored;

born as a man to die,

nailed to a cross on high.

cold in the grave to lie,

Jesus is Lord!

4. Source of all sovereignty,

light, immortality,

life everlasting

and heaven assured;

so with the ransomed, we

praise him eternally,

Christ in his majesty,

Jesus is Lord!

Words: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b 1926)

Post Communion Prayer

Eternal God, giver of love and power,

your Son Jesus Christ has sent us into all the world

to preach the gospel of his kingdom:

confirm us in this mission,

and help us to live the good news we proclaim;

through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
