music Psalm 26: The Lord is my light, the Lord is my help, the Lord is my salvation.
The Lord is my light, my help, my salvation, why should I fear . . . . . . .

A Reading from the Gospel according to Matthew

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.

Thy will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven, Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil, Amen.
