THE COLLECT.
O LORD, we beseech thee to keep thy Church and
household
continually in thy true religion; that they who do lean only upon the
hope
of thy heavenly grace may evermore be defended by thy mighty power;
through
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
THE EPISTLE.
Colossians 3. 12-17
PUT on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and
beloved,
mercy and compassion, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness,
long-suffering;
forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a
complaint
against any; even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. And above
all these things put on charity, which is the bond of
perfectness.
And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are
called in one body; and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ
dwell
in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in
psalms,
and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to
the
Lord. And whatsoever ye do, in word or deed, do all in the Name
of
the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father through him.
THE GOSPEL.
S. Matthew 13. 24-30
ANOTHER parable put he forth unto them, saying,
The kingdom
of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his
field.
But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat,
and
went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth
fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the
householder
came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field?
from whence then hath it tares? He said unto them, An enemy hath
done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go
and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the
tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow
together
until the harvest; and in the time of harvest I will say to the
reapers,
Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn
them:
but gather the wheat into my barn.

INTROIT. Ps
97:1-6
THE Lord is King, the earth may be glad
thereof: / yea,
the multitude of the isles may be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: /
righteousness
and judgement are the foundation of his throne.
3 There goeth a fire before him, / and burneth
up his
enemies on every side.
4 His lightnings gave shine unto the world: /
the earth
saw it, and was afraid.
5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of
the Lord,
/ at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Ant. The heavens have declared his righteousness,
/ and
all the people have seen his glory.
Glory be. Repeat Antiphon.
GRADUAL.
Ps 126:5-7
RESTORE our fortunes, O Lord, / as the rivers
in the
South.
6 They that sow in tears / shall reap in joy.
Alleluia, All. He that now goeth on his way weeping, and
beareth forth
his seed, / shall doubtless come again with joy, and bring his sheaves
with him. All.
