Psalm 97
1The LORD is King;
let the earth rejoice; *
let the multitude of the isles be glad.

2Clouds and darkness are round about him, *
righteousness and justice are the foundations of his throne.

3A fire goes before him *
and burns up his enemies on every side.

4His lightnings light up the world; *
the earth sees it and is afraid.

5The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, *
at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6The heavens declare his righteousness, *
and all the peoples see his glory.

7Confounded be all who worship carved images
and delight in false gods! *
Bow down before him, all you gods.

8Zion hears and is glad, and the cities of Judah rejoice, *
because of your judgments, O LORD.

9For you are the LORD,
most high over all the earth; *
you are exalted far above all gods.

10The LORD loves those who hate evil; *
he preserves the lives of his saints
and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

11Light has sprung up for the righteous, *
and joyful gladness for those who are truehearted.

12Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous, *
and give thanks to his holy Name.

A Prayer of St. Chrysostom
Almighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen.
