Psalm 95
1Come, let us sing to the Lord; *
let us shout for joy to the Rock of our salvation.

2Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving *
and raise a loud shout to him with psalms.

3For the Lord is a great God, *
and a great King above all gods.

4In his hand are the caverns of the earth, *
and the heights of the hills are his also.

5The sea is his, for he made it, *
and his hands have molded the dry land.

6Come, let us bow down, and bend the knee, *
and kneel before the Lord our Maker.

7For he is our God,
and we are the people of his pasture and the sheep of his hand. *
Oh, that today you would hearken to his voice!

8Harden not your hearts,
as your forebears did in the wilderness, *
at Meribah, and on that day at Massah,
when they tempted me.

9They put me to the test, *
though they had seen my works.

10Forty years long I detested that generation and said, *
“This people are wayward in their hearts;
they do not know my ways.”

11So I swore in my wrath, *
“They shall not enter into my rest.”

A Collect for Fridays
Almighty God, whose most dear Son went not up to joy but first he suffered pain, and entered not into glory before he was crucified: Mercifully grant that we, walking in the way of the cross, may find it none other than the way of life and peace; through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord. Amen.
