Hymn: TiS 212
1. Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ the true, the only light,
sun of righteousness, arise,
triumph over shades of night;
dayspring from on high, be near;
day-star, in my heart appear.
2. Dark and cheerless is the morn
if you seem not close to me;
joyless is the day’s return,
till your mercy’s beams I see,
till they inward light impart,
glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
3. Visit then this soul of mine;
pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
fill me, radiancy divine;
scatter all my unbelief;
more and more yourself display,
shining to the perfect day.
Greeting: The Lord be with you.
AND ALSO WITH YOU. (see Ruth 2:4)

Sentence: By grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not your
own doing; it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2.8-9
Prayer of Preparation:
As we gather as God's people let us pray together:
Almighty God,
to whom all hearts are open,
all desires known,
and from whom no secrets are hidden:
cleanse the thoughts of our hearts
by the inspiration
of your Holy Spirit,
that we may perfectly love you,
and worthily magnify your holy name,
through Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Summary of the Commandments:
‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the
Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your
mind, and with all your strength.’ Jesus said: ‘This is the great and first
commandment. And a second is like it: you shall love your neighbour as
yourself.’
5
The Confession
Let us confess our sins in penitence and faith, confident in God's
forgiveness.
Merciful God, our maker and our judge,
we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed,
and in what we have failed to do:
we have not loved you with our whole heart;
we have not loved our neighbours as ourselves;
we repent, and are sorry for all our sins.
Father, forgive us.
Strengthen us to love and obey you
in newness of life;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Absolution {Celebrant}
Almighty God, who has promised forgiveness to all who turn to him
in faith: pardon you and set you free from all your sins, strengthen
you in all goodness and keep you in eternal life, through Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen.

Gloria – Ushaw Setting (Alan Rees)
CHOIR: Glory, Glory to God, Glory to God in the highest,
ALL:
and peace to God’s people on earth.
Lord God, heavenly King, almighty God and Father,
we worship you, we give you thanks, we praise you for your glory.
Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father, Lord God, Lamb of God,
you take away the sin of the world: have mercy on us;
you are seated at the right hand of the Father: receive our prayer.
For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord,
you alone are the Most High
Jesus Christ,
with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father.
7
Prayer of the Day
Loving and righteous God,
your boundless generosity exceeds all that we can desire or deserve,
and you give to the last worker all you promised to the first:
liberate us from all jealousy and greed,
that we may be free to love and serve others,
and in your service may find our true reward;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
THE MINISTRY OF THE WORD
Readings from 'New Revised Standard Version' (NRSV)
First Reading: Exodus 16:2-15
2 The whole congregation of the Israelites complained against Moses and
Aaron in the wilderness. 3 The Israelites said to them, "If only we had died
by the hand of the Lord in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the fleshpots
and ate our fill of bread; for you have brought us out into this wilderness
to kill this whole assembly with hunger."
4 Then the Lord said to Moses, "I am going to rain bread from heaven
for you, and each day the people shall go out and gather enough for that
day. In that way I will test them, whether they will follow my instruction
or not. 5 On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be
twice as much as they gather on other days." 6 So Moses and Aaron said
to all the Israelites, "In the evening you shall know that it was the Lord
who brought you out of the land of Egypt, 7 and in the morning you shall
see the glory of the Lord, because he has heard your complaining against
the Lord. For what are we, that you complain against us?" 8 And Moses
said, "When the Lord gives you meat to eat in the evening and your fill of
bread in the morning, because the Lord has heard the complaining that
you utter against him--what are we? Your complaining is not against us
but against the Lord."
9 Then Moses said to Aaron, "Say to the whole congregation of the
Israelites, 'Draw near to the Lord, for he has heard your complaining.' " 10
And as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the Israelites, they
looked toward the wilderness, and the glory of the Lord appeared in the
8
cloud. 11 The Lord spoke to Moses and said, 12 "I have heard the
complaining of the Israelites; say to them, 'At twilight you shall eat meat,
and in the morning you shall have your fill of bread; then you shall know
that I am the Lord your God.' "
13 In the evening quails came up and covered the camp; and in the
morning there was a layer of dew around the camp. 14 When the layer of
dew lifted, there on the surface of the wilderness was a fine flaky
substance, as fine as frost on the ground. 15 When the Israelites saw it,
they said to one another, "What is it?" For they did not know what it was.
Moses said to them, "It is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat.
Response: Hear the word of the Lord,
THANKS BE TO GOD
Psalm: 105:1-6, 44-45
1 O give thanks to the Lord and call upon his name:
tell among the peoples what things he has done.
2 Sing to him, O sing praises:
and be telling of all his marvellous works.
3 Exult in his holy name:
and let those that seek the Lord be joyful in heart.
4 Seek the Lord and his strength:
O seek his face continually.
5 Call to mind what wonders he has done:
his marvellous acts, and the judgements of his mouth,
6 O seed of Abraham his servant:
O children of Jacob his chosen one.
44 He gave them the land of the nations:
and they took possession of the fruit for which other peoples had toiled,
45 So that they might keep his statutes:
and faithfully obey his laws. O praise the Lord.
9
Second Reading: Philippians 1:21-30
21 For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain. 22 If I am to live in the flesh,
that means fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which I prefer. 23 I am
hard pressed between the two: my desire is to depart and be with Christ,
for that is far better; 24 but to remain in the flesh is more necessary for
you. 25 Since I am convinced of this, I know that I will remain and
continue with all of you for your progress and joy in faith, 26 so that I may
share abundantly in your boasting in Christ Jesus when I come to you
again.
27 Only, live your life in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so
that, whether I come and see you or am absent and hear about you, I will
know that you are standing firm in one spirit, striving side by side with
one mind for the faith of the gospel, 28 and are in no way intimidated by
your opponents. For them this is evidence of their destruction, but of your
salvation. And this is God's doing. 29 For he has graciously granted you
the privilege not only of believing in Christ, but of suffering for him as
well-- 30 since you are having the same struggle that you saw I had and
now hear that I still have.
Response: Hear the word of the Lord,
THANKS BE TO GOD

Gradual Hymn: TiS 616
1. O day of God, draw near
in beauty and in power,
come with your timeless
judgment now
to match our present hour.
2. Bring to our troubled minds,
uncertain and afraid,
the quiet of a steadfast faith,
calm of a call obeyed.
3. Bring justice to our land
that all may dwell secure,
and firmly build for days to come
foundations that endure.
4. Bring to our world of strife
your sovereign word of peace,
that war may haunt the earth no
more
and desolation cease.
5. O day of God, draw near
as at creation’s birth;
let there be light again, and set
your justice in the earth.
11
We stand for the reading of the Holy Gospel as a sign of respect as we greet our
Lord who is present in His Holy Word.
The Lord be with you
AND ALSO WITH YOU
The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, according to Saint Matthew chapter 20
beginning at the 1st
verse.
GLORY TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.
20:1 "For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the
morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 After agreeing with the laborers for
the usual daily wage, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 When he went out about
nine o'clock, he saw others standing idle in the marketplace; 4 and he said to
them, 'You also go into the vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.' So they
went. 5 When he went out again about noon and about three o'clock, he did the
same. 6 And about five o'clock he went out and found others standing around;
and he said to them, 'Why are you standing here idle all day?' 7 They said to him,
'Because no one has hired us.' He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.' 8
When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the
laborers and give them their pay, beginning with the last and then going to the
first.' 9 When those hired about five o'clock came, each of them received the
usual daily wage. 10 Now when the first came, they thought they would receive
more; but each of them also received the usual daily wage. 11 And when they
received it, they grumbled against the landowner, 12 saying, 'These last worked
only one hour, and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden
of the day and the scorching heat.' 13 But he replied to one of them, 'Friend, I
am doing you no wrong; did you not agree with me for the usual daily wage? 14
Take what belongs to you and go; I choose to give to this last the same as I give
to you. 15 Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or are
you envious because I am generous?' 16 So the last will be first, and the first will
be last."
Gospel Response: This is the gospel of the Lord,
PRAISE TO YOU, LORD JESUS CHRIST.

• SERMON (Copies of the sermon are available at the back of church)
THE NICENE CREED
Let us together affirm the faith of the Church.
We believe in one God, the Father, the almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.
We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God, eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, of one Being with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us and for our salvation he came down from heaven,
was incarnate of the Holy Spirit and the virgin Mary
and became truly human.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory to judge
the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son
is worshipped and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
We believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come. Amen.
13

O my soul, praise him, for he is your health and salvation.
Come all who hear,
brothers and sisters draw near,
praise him in glad adoration.
2. Praise to the Lord who in all things is wondrously reigning
and, as on wings of an eagle, uplifting, sustaining:
have you not seen
all that is needed has been
sent by his gracious ordaining?
3. Praise to the Lord, who will prosper our work and defend us;
surely his goodness and mercy shall daily attend us:
ponder anew
what the Almighty can do
as with his love he befriends us.
15
4. Praise to the Lord, who when darkness of sin is abounding,
who, when the godless do triumph, our best hopes confounding,
sheds forth his light,
scatters the horrors of night,
saints with his mercy surrounding.
5. Praise to the Lord! O let all that is in me adore him!
All that has life and breath, come now with praises before him.
Let the Amen
sound from his people again:
gladly for ever adore him.
