1 April 2016 - Friday of Easter Week


Of the First Class Octave – White 

INTROIT Ps. 77.53

The Lord led them on in hope, alleluia, whilst he overwhelmed their enemies in the sea, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. Ps. 77.1. Hearken, my people, to my law; incline your ear to the words of my mouth. V. Glory be.

COLLECT

Almighty and Eternal God, this Easter Sacrament is a token of thy merciful forgiveness of all mankind. Let our minds now be made strong so that we may prove in deeds the faith we profess in words. Through.

EPISTLE I Peter 3.18-22.

Beloved, Because Christ also died once for our sins, the just for the unjust: that he might offer us to God, being put to death indeed in the flesh, but enlivened in the spirit, In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison: Which had been some time incredulous, when they waited for the patience of God in the days of Noe, when the ark was a building: wherein a few, that is, eight souls, were saved by water. Whereunto baptism, being of the like form, now saveth you also: not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but, the examination of a good conscience towards God by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Who is on the right hand of God, swallowing down death that we might be made heirs of life everlasting: being gone into heaven, the angels and powers and virtues being made subject to him.

GRADUAL Ps. 117.24, 26-27

This is the day that the Lord hath made; let us be glad and rejoice in it. V. Blessed is he who cometh in the Name of the Lord; the Lord is God and he hath given us light.

Alleluia, alleluia. V. Ps. 95.10. Announce among the nations, that the Lord reigneth upon a Cross.

SEQUENCE – Victimae Paschali

+ The Continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew (28.16-20.)

At that time, the eleven disciples went into Galilee, unto the mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And seeing him they adored: but some doubted. And Jesus coming, spoke to them, saying: All power is given to me in heaven and in earth. Going therefore, teach ye all nations: baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you. And behold I am with you all days, even to the consummation of the world.

  The Creed is said.

This day shall be a memorial for you, alleluia, and you shall celebrate it as a solemn feast to the Lord for all generations, as a perpetual institution, alleluia, alleluia, alleluia.

Look lovingly upon thine own people, O Lord. As thou didst bring them to a new life through thine eternal mysteries, free them now from their temporal sins. Through.
