I know that my Redeemer lives;
O the sweet joy this sentence gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead;
he lives, my ever living Head.
He lives triumphant from the grave,
he lives eternally to save,
he lives all-glorious in the sky,
he lives exalted there on high.
He lives, all glory to his Name!
he lives, my Jesus, still the same.
oh, the sweet joy this sentence gives,
I know that my Redeemer lives!

Collect of the Day: O God, your Son made himself known to
his disciples in the breaking of bread. Open the eyes of our

alive and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now
and for ever. Amen.
The Proclamation of the Word
A READING FROM THE BOOK OF ACTS 9: 1-20
Read by Esma Brathwaite
Meanwhile Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the
disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for
letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any
who belonged to the Way, men or women, he might bring them
bound to Jerusalem. Now as he was going along and
approaching Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven flashed
around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to
him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” He asked, “Who
are you, Lord?” The reply came, “I am Jesus, whom you
are persecuting. But get up and enter the city, and you will be
told what you are to do.” The men who were travelling with him
stood speechless because they heard the voice but saw no one.
Saul got up from the ground, and though his eyes were open, he
could see nothing; so they led him by the hand and brought
him into Damascus. For three days he was without sight, and
neither ate nor drank. Now there was a disciple in Damascus
4. named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” He
answered, “Here I am, Lord.” The Lord said to him, “Get up and
go to the street called Straight, and at the house of Judas
look for a man of Tarsus named Saul. At this moment he is
praying, and he has seen in a vision a man named Ananias come
in and lay his hands on him so that he might regain his sight.”
But Ananias answered, “Lord, I have heard from many about
this man, how much evil he has done to your saints in
Jerusalem; and here he has authority from the chief priests to
bind all who invoke your name.” But the Lord said to him, “Go,
for he is an instrument whom I have chosen to bring my name
before Gentiles and kings and before the people of Israel; I
myself will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of
my name.” So Ananias went and entered the house. He laid
his hands on Saul and said, “Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who
appeared to you on your way here, has sent me so that you may
regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.” And
immediately something like scales fell from his eyes, and his
sight was restored. Then he got up and was baptized, and after
taking some food, he regained his strength. For several days he
was with the disciples in Damascus, and immediately he began
to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues, saying, “He is the Son of
God.”
The word of the Lord: Thanks be to God.
PSALM 30 (Tone VIII.1)
I will exalt you O LORD because you have lifted me up *
and have not let my enemies tri-umph over me.
O LORD my God I cried out to you, *
and you re-stored me to health.
You brought me up O LORD from the dead; *
you restored my life as I was going down to the grave.
5. Sing to the LORD, you servants of his; *
give thanks for the remembrance of his ho-li-ness.
For his wrath endures but the twinkling of an eye, *
his favour for a life-time.
Weeping may spend the night, *
but joy comes in the morn-ing.
While I felt secure I said “I shall never be dis-turb’d. *
You LORD with your favour made me as strong as the
mountains.”
Then you hid your face, *
and I was fill’d with fear.
I cried to you O LORD; *
I pleaded with the Lord say-ing,
“What profit is there in my blood if I go down to the Pit? *
will the dust praise you or de-clare your faith-ful-ness?
Hear O LORD and have mercy up-on me; *
O LORD be my hel-per.”
You have turned my wailing into danc-ing; *
you have put off my sackcloth and cloth’d me with joy.
Therefore my heart sings to you without ceas-ing; *
O LORD my God I will give you thanks for e-ver.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son:
and to the Ho-ly Spi-rit.
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be:
world with-out end A-men.
A READING FROM THE REVELATION TO JOHN 5: 11-14
Read by Everod Miller
Then I looked, and I heard the voice of many angels
surrounding the throne and the living creatures and the elders;
they numbered myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,
6. singing with full voice, “Worthy is the Lamb that was
slaughtered to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might
and honour and glory and blessing!” Then I heard every creature
in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and
all that is in them, singing, “To the one seated on the throne and
to the Lamb be blessing and honour and glory and might forever
and ever!” And the four living creatures said, “Amen!” And the
elders fell down and worshipped.
The word of the Lord: Thanks be to God.

After these things Jesus showed himself again to the disciples
by the Sea of Tiberias; and he showed himself in this way.
Gathered there together were Simon Peter, Thomas called the
Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and
two others of his disciples Simon Peter said to them, “I am
going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They
went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught
nothing. Just after daybreak, Jesus stood on the beach; but the
disciples did not know that it was Jesus. Jesus said to them,
7. “Children, you have no fish, have you?” They answered him,
“No.” He said to them, “Cast the net to the right side of the boat,
and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not
able to haul it in because there were so many fish. That disciple
whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon
Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on some clothes, for he
was naked, and jumped into the sea. But the other disciples
came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not
far from the land, only about a hundred yards off. When they
had gone ashore, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish on it,
and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish that you
have just caught.” So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the
net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred fifty-three of them; and
though there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to
them, “Come and have breakfast.” Now none of the disciples
dared to ask him, “Who are you?” because they knew it was the
Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and
did the same with the fish. This was now the third time that
Jesus appeared to the disciples after he was raised from the
dead. When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon
Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”
He said to him, “Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus
said to him, “Feed my lambs.” A second time he said to him,
“Simon son of John, do you love me?” He said to him, “Yes,
Lord; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Tend my
sheep.” He said to him the third time, “Simon son of John, do
you love me?” Peter felt hurt because he said to him the third
time, “Do you love me?” And he said to him, “Lord, you know
everything; you know that I love you.” Jesus said to him, “Feed
my sheep. Very truly, I tell you, when you were younger, you
used to fasten your own belt and to go wherever you wished.
But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and
someone else will fasten a belt around you and take you where
8. you do not wish to go.” (He said this to indicate the kind of
death by which he would glorify God.) After this he said to him,
“Follow me.”

Music Notes:
In his short life Jehan Alain (1911-1940) composed some of the
most fresh and original music for organ. The influences of
13. composers such as Duruflé, Messiaen and Dutilleux mingle with
Gregorian chant, jazz and the exotic. He drew particular
inspiration from the music of North African and Indian systems,
especially their modal and rhythmic properties. Thus even
modestly informed listeners may easily identify this composer
within a few moments of listening to almost any one of his
works. Tragically, he was killed in action in 1940 during one of
the first skirmishes of World War II at the age of 29.
Ballade en mode phrygien (1930) is written in a tripartite
structure, with a chorale at its centre. He dedicated this work to
his grandmother.
Petite pièce (1932) is constructed with its motif in parallel
sixths, repeated four times, followed by the theme stated over a
flowing triplet accompaniment and ends with a short canon.
Soorjo Alexander William Langobard Oliphant Chuckerbutty
(1884-1960) was an English composer and organist of Anglo-
Indian descent who played in both cinemas and churches. Little
known as a composer (except for his piece Pæan Fanfare which
has entered the standard repertoire), Chuckerbutty wrote mainly
for organ. He began playing the piano at six, and was
composing by 14. His careers in church and cinema occurred
simultaneously. Quentin MacLean, the famous Canadian
theatre and church organist, called him "the only organist I
know who combines whole-time cinema work with whole-time
church work and makes a job of both”.
The Latvian congregation is sponsoring a concert on Sunday
