I  have  called  out  because  you  answer  me,  O  God;   incline  your  ear  and  hear  my  words;  keep  me,  O  Lord,  like  the  apple  of  your eye;   protect  me  under  the  shadow  of  your  wings.  (Vs. Hear  my  just cause,  O  Lord;   attend  to  my  supplication.)  

Assembly: Vs. Glory  be  to  the Father,  and  to  the  Son,   and  to  the  Holy  Spirit.  As  it was in  the beginning,   is  now,  and  ever  shall  be,   world  without  end.  Amen.

 

Psalm Response:  Give the Lord glory and honor.

I have loved you with an everlasting love,

I have called you and you are mine;

I have loved you with an everlasting love,

I have called you and you are mine.

 

1.       Seek the face of the Lord and long for him:

          he will bring you his light and his peace.

 

2.       Seek the face of the Lord and long for him:

          he will bring you his joy and his hope.

 

3.       Seek the face of the Lord and long for him:

          he will bring you his care and his love.
