Scripture Reading: “Old Testament Lesson: Psalms 100”

¹ Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth. ² Worship the Lord with gladness; come into his presence with singing. ³ Know that the Lord is God.   It is he that made us, and we are his;   we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. ⁴ Enter his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with praise.   Give thanks to him, bless his name. ⁵ For the Lord is good;   his steadfast love endures forever,   and his faithfulness to all generations.

Scripture Reading: “Old Testament Lesson: Isaiah 12”

¹You will say in that day: I will give thanks to you, O Lord, for though you were angry with me, your anger turned away, and you comforted me. ²Surely God is my salvation; I will trust, and will not be afraid,  for the Lord God is my strength and my might; he has become my salvation. ³With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation. ⁴And you will say in that day: Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name;  make known his deeds among the nations; proclaim that his name is exalted. ⁵Sing praises to the Lord, for he has done gloriously; let this be known in all the earth. ⁶Shout aloud and sing for joy, O royal Zion, for great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel.
