Be still, my soul: your best, your heavenly friend through thorny ways leads to a joyful end. 2 Be still, my soul: your God will undertake to guide the future as he has the past. Your hope, your confidence let nothing shake, all now mysterious shall be clear at last. Be still, my soul: the tempests still obey his voice, who ruled them once on Galilee. 3 Be still, my soul: when dearest friends depart and all is darkened in the vale of tears, then you shall better know his love, his heart, who comes to soothe your sorrow, calm your fears. Be still, my soul: for Jesus can restore the trust and hope that strengthened you before. 4 Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on when we shall be for ever with the Lord, when disappointment, grief and fear are gone, sorrow forgotten, love’s pure joy restored. Be still, my soul: when change and tears are past, all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last. Katharina von Schlegel (1697-?) tr. Jane Laurie Borthwick (1813-97) Reproduced with permission. Together in Song 123 Tune: Finlandia The presiding priest greets all in the name of the Lord In the name of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. Bless the Lord who forgives all our sins, whose mercy endures for ever. The Lord be with you. And also with you. 3 Kyrie eleison is sung. Please join in as indicated. Choir alone Lord, have mercy. Choir alone Lord, have mercy. Choir alone Christ, have mercy. Choir alone Lord, have mercy. The presiding priest says the Collect of the Day Let us pray. Life-giving God, your Son came into the world to free us all from sin and death: breathe upon us with the power of your Spirit, that we may be raised to new life in Christ, and serve you in holiness and righteousness all our days; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. 4 THE LITURGY OF THE WORD [sit] A reading from the book of the prophet Ezekiel. 37:1-14 The hand of the LORD came upon me, and he brought me out by the spirit of the LORD and set me down in the middle of a valley; it was full of bones. He led me all around them; there were very many lying in the valley, and they were very dry. He said to me, ‘Mortal, can these bones live?’ I answered, ‘O Lord GOD, you know.’ Then he said to me, ‘Prophesy to these bones, and say to them: O dry bones, hear the word of the LORD. Thus says the Lord GOD to these bones: I will cause breath to enter you, and you shall live. I will lay sinews on you, and will cause flesh to come upon you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am the LORD.’ So I prophesied as I had been commanded; and as I prophesied, suddenly there was a noise, a rattling, and the bones came together, bone to its bone. I looked, and there were sinews on them, and flesh had come upon them, and skin had covered them; but there was no breath in them. Then he said to me, ‘Prophesy to the breath, prophesy, mortal, and say to the breath: Thus says the Lord GOD: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live.’ I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood on their feet, a vast multitude. Then he said to me, ‘Mortal, these bones are the whole house of Israel. They say, “Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are cut off completely.” Therefore prophesy, and say to them, Thus says the Lord GOD: I am going to open your graves, and bring you up from your graves, O my people; and I will bring you back to the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am the LORD, when I open your graves, and bring you up from your graves, O my people. I will put my spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you on your own soil; then you shall know that I, the LORD, have spoken and will act, says the LORD.’ For the word of the Lord, thanks be to God. PSALM 130 1 Out of the depths have I called to you, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice; 2 O let your ears consider well: the voice of my supplication. 3 If you, Lord, should note what we do wrong: who then, O Lord, could stand? 4 But there is forgiveness with you: so that you shall be feared. 5 5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits for him: and in his word is my hope. 6 My soul looks for the Lord: more than watchmen for the morning, more, I say, than watchmen for the morning. 7 O Israel, trust in the Lord, for with the Lord there is mercy: and with him is ample redemption. 8 He will redeem Israel: from the multitude of their sins. Text: A Prayer Book for Australia Chant: After Purcell A reading from the letter of Paul to the Romans. 8:6-11 To set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. For this reason the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law – indeed it cannot, and those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh; you are in the Spirit, since the Spirit of God dwells in you.

    Partners Praying Together ECAUSE OF THE RAPID CHANGES brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic across the globe much of ABM’s normal project work has been disrupted. Because of that, we have B asked our Overseas Partners to supply us with prayer points that reflect the situation in their country. Included in this edition of Partners Praying Together are the prayer points that we have received. We have included these so that you can show prayerful concern for them as they, who like us are ‘wearied by the changes and chances of this fleeting world’ (as the prayer from Compline puts it), adjust to living in a time of global pandemic. You’ll also find the usual things we would normally have: the feasts and commemorations from the lectionary, the Australian Cycle of Prayer, and commemorations from the United Nations calendar. All the material is designed to inform your prayers for our Overseas Partners, the bishops and dioceses of our Church and for wider global concerns. With the Psalmist let us pray, ‘Let my prayer be counted as incense before you, Lord, and the lifting up of my hands as an evening sacrifice’ (141.2). 1. Who are ABM’s Overseas Partners? 2.

  • Pastoral Letter from Bishop Richard to Be Read at Sunday Services on 5 January 2020
    The Anglican Diocese of Gippsland The Rt Revd Dr Richard Treloar Bishop of Gippsland A Pastoral Letter from Bishop Richard to be read at Sunday Services on 5 January 2020 To all clergy and people of the Diocese, and to those who may be seeking solace and comfort in our churches today: greetings. It is with heavy hearts that we gather this Epiphany, at a time when so many of our brothers and sisters in east Gippsland are hurting. St Paul reminds us that when one member of the body suffers, all the members of the body suffer with it (1 Cor 12:26); and so it is for our Diocese in these anxious and dark days since Christmas. Our hearts and hands go out to the people of the eastern region in your grief and loss, as you seek to come to terms with the trauma you have faced and the devastation caused to lives and livelihoods, to property, stock, towns, and to the creation itself. We acknowledge our feelings of helplessness in the face of such ferocious forces, notwithstanding the power of prayer, which has also been keenly and gratefully felt by those in harm’s way. We pay tribute to the work of our emergency services, the Country Fire Authority, and associated organisations whose workers and volunteers have stood in the breach to keep others safe. We recognise the ministries of clergy and lay people in the east and across the Diocese who have responded to the immediate material and pastoral needs of evacuees and those returning to assess the damage to homes, businesses, and communities.
