— from BCP1979
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
My praise of you comes in the great assembly.
I will pay my vows before those who fear him.
The humble shall eat and be satisfied.
They shall praise the Lord who seek after him.
Let your hearts live forever.
All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord.
All the families of nations shall worship before you.
For the kingdom is the Lord’s.
He is the ruler over the nations.
Posterity shall serve him.
Generations shall be told about the Lord.
They shall come and shall declare his righteousness
to a people that shall be born.
— Psalm 22:25-28, 30-31
Invitatory
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God;
and everyone who loves
has been born of God, and knows God.
He who does not love does not know God,
for God is love.
By this God’s love was revealed in us:
that God has sent his Son to the world
that we might live through him.
In this is love, not that we loved God,
but that he loved us,
and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.
Beloved, if God loved us in this way,
we also ought to love one another.
No one has ever seen God,
but if we love one another,
God remains in us,
and his love has been perfected in us.
— 1 John 4:7-12
Cruciform
There is no fear in love;
but perfect love casts out fear.
He who fears is not made perfect in love.
We love him, because he first loved us.
— 1 John 4:18-19

I am the vine. You are the branches.
He who abides in me,
and I in him,

Following the seventh bead:
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit

Dimissory
If you remain in me, and my words remain in you,
you will ask whatever you desire,
and it will be done for you.
In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit;
and so you will be my disciples.
— John 15:7-8
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
