Commontide

After Receiving Communion

O Lord Jesus Christ, in this wonderful Sacrament you have given us a memorial of your passion: Grant us, we pray, so to venerate the sacred mysteries of your Body and Blood, that we may ever perceive within ourselves the fruit of your redemption; who live and reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Psalter

Psalm 114

Alleluia.

When Israel came out of Egypt, and the house of Jacob from among a people of a foreign tongue,

Judah was God’s sanctuary, and Israel his dominion.

The sea beheld it and fled; Jordan was driven back.

The mountains skipped like rams, and the little hills like young sheep.

What ailed you, O sea, that you fled? O Jordan, that you were driven back?

You mountains, that you skipped like rams, and you little hills like young sheep?

Tremble, O earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob,

Who turned the hard rock into a pool of water, and the flint stone into a springing well.
