Passage: 3 “If you walk in my statutes and observe my commandments and do them,4 then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.5 Your threshing shall last to the time of the grape harvest, and the grape harvest shall last to the time for sowing. And you shall eat your bread to the full and dwell in your land securely.6 I will give peace in the land, and you shall lie down, and none shall make you afraid. And I will remove harmful beasts from the land, and the sword shall not go through your land.7 You shall chase your enemies, and they shall fall before you by the sword.8 Five of you shall chase a hundred, and a hundred of you shall chase ten thousand, and your enemies shall fall before you by the sword.9 I will turn to you and make you fruitful and multiply you and will confirm my covenant with you.”(Leviticus Song:Keep the Feast by Ben Shive and Skye PetersonLyrics:Joyfully we join You at Your tablePleading not our righteousnessBy Your wealth of mercy we are ableNow to feast in confidenceTake this bread and eatTake this cup and drinkRemember how He loved usRejoice and keep the feastWho is fit to feast with such a SaviorWho His sandals could untieWho are we that He would show us favorGranting us this gift of lifeHappy sign of friendship and reunionWith the blessed Three in OneForetaste of that glorious communionVision of the world to comePrayer: Most merciful God,who is of purer eyes than to behold iniquity,and has promised forgiveness to all who confess and forsake their sins:we come before you in a humble sense of our own unworthiness,acknowledging our manifold transgressions of your righteous laws.But, O gracious Father, who desires not the death of sinners,look upon us, we ask you, in mercy, and forgive us all our transgressions.Make us deeply aware of the great evil of them,and work in us a hearty contritionthat we may obtain forgiveness at your hands,who are ever ready to receive humble and penitent sinners.For the sake of your Son, Jesus Christ,our only Savior and Redeemer. Amen.—The Book of Common Prayer (1552)
