The Proclamation of the Word
A READING FROM THE BOOK OF ISAIAH
Read by Rueben Russouw
For I am about to create new heavens and a new earth; the former
things shall not be remembered or come to mind. But be glad and
rejoice forever in what I am creating; for I am about to create
Jerusalem as a joy, and its people as a delight. I will rejoice in
Jerusalem, and delight in my people; no more shall the sound of
weeping be heard in it, or the cry of distress. No more shall there
be in it an infant that lives but a few days, or an old person who
does not live out a lifetime; for one who dies at
a hundred years will be considered a youth, and one who falls short of
a hundred will be considered accursed. They shall build houses and
inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. They shall
not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for
like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be, and my chosen
shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labour in vain,
or bear children for calamity; for they shall be offspring blessed by
the Lord—and their descendants as well. Before they call I will
answer, while they are yet speaking I will hear. The wolf and the lamb
shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the ox; but the
serpent— its food shall be dust! They shall not hurt or destroy on all
my holy mountain, says the
Lord. ISAIAH 65:17–25
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.
PSALM 98 (Please remain seated for the psalm.)
Sing to the LORD a new song, *
for he has done mar-ve-lous things.
With his right hand and his holy arm *
has he won for him-self the vic-to-ry.
The LORD has made known his vic-to-ry; *
his righteousness has he openly shown in the sight of the na-tions.
He remembers his mercy and faithfulness to the house of
Is-ra-el, *
and all the ends of the earth have seen the vic-to-ry of our God.
Shout with joy to the LORD all you lands; *
lift up your voice re-joice and sing.
Sing to the LORD with the harp, *
with the harp and the voice of song.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn *
shout with joy be-fore the King the LORD.
3. Let the sea make a noise and all that is in it, *
the lands and those who dwell there-in.
Let the rivers clap their hands, *
and let the hills ring out with joy before the LORD / when he comes
to judge the earth.
In righteousness shall he judge the world *
and the peo-ples with e-qui-ty.
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 SECOND LETTER OF PAUL TO
THE THESSALONIANS
Read by Esma Brathwaite
Now we command you, beloved in the name of our Lord Jesus
Christ, to keep away from believers who are living in idleness and
not according to the tradition that they received from us. For you
yourselves know how you ought to imitate us; we were not idle
when we were with you, and we did not eat anyone’s bread
without paying for it; but with toil and labour we worked night
and day, so that we might not burden any of you. This was not
because we do not have that right but in order to give you
an example to imitate. For even when we were with you, we gave
you this command: Anyone unwilling to work should not eat. For
we hear that some of you are living in idleness, mere
busybodies, not doing any work. Now such persons we command
and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to do their work quietly and to
earn their own living. 13Brothers and sisters, do not be weary in
doing what is right. 2 THESSALONIANS 3:6–13
The word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God.

according to Luke.
All:
Glory be to thee, O Lord.
When some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned
with beautiful stones and gifts dedicated to God, Jesus said, “As
for these things that you see, the days will come when
not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down.”
They asked him, “Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the
sign that this is about to take place?” And he said, “Beware that you
are not led astray; for many will come in my name and say, ‘I am he!’
and, ‘The time is near!’ Do not go after them. When you hear of
wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for these things must
take place first, but the end will not follow immediately.” Then he
said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom; there will be great earthquakes, and in various places
famines and plagues; 11and there will be dreadful
portents and great signs from heaven. But before all this occurs,
they will arrest you and persecute you; they will hand you over to
synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and
governors because of my name. This will give you an opportunity
to testify. So make up your minds not to prepare
your defence in advance; for I will give you words and a wisdom that
none of your opponents will be able to withstand or contradict.
You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, by relatives
and friends; and they will put some of you to death. You will be
hated by all because of my name. But not a hair of your head will
perish. By your endurance you will gain your souls.”

Let us humbly confess our sins to almighty God,
Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Maker of all

our manifold sins and wickedness, Which we from time to
time most grievously have committed, By thought, word and
deed, Against thy divine majesty. We do earnestly repent, and
are heartily sorry for these our misdoings. Have mercy upon
us, most merciful Father; For thy Son our Lord Jesus Christ’s
sake, Forgive us all that is past; And grant that we may ever
hereafter Serve and please thee In newness of life, To the
honour and glory of thy name; Through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.

Music Notes:
As Anglicans we have many different ways of expressing
ourselves musically in our services. In the middle part of the
last century, St. Barnabas’ enjoyed a choir that sang musical
settings of the communion service and morning/evening prayer
– music that precluded active congregational participation, but
encouraged people to worship in a non-participatory way. In
the past three years or so, we’ve ‘resurrected’ this tradition by
having the choir sing choral settings of the eucharist two or
three times a year – by no means meant to be a ‘concert’, but
allowing an opportunity for music to speak for you. In the past
we have done communion settings of the Kyrie, Sanctus and
Agnus Dei by Mozart, Fauré, Viadana, Walter MacNutt and
others; today the setting is by a 20th century English born
composer named Kenneth Leighton (1929-1988) who spent the
major part of his career as music professor at the University of
Edinburgh.
The composer of the organ prelude this morning, Stanley Vann,
was for many years the organist of England’s Peterborough
Cathedral (from 1953 to 1977) which is located about 75 miles
or so north of London, in Cambridgeshire. By all accounts he
was a competent organist, and composed a great deal of music
for the church, but it is Vann’s reputation as a choirmaster that
stands out. Andrew Fletcher, born in 1950, is an English
organist, conductor and composer. The Australian born
musician Sir William McKie was, between 1941 and 1963,
organist at Westminster Abbey.
He had the musical
responsibility for several royal occasions during that period,
including both the marriage and coronation of Queen Elizabeth.
For the former occasion he composed the anthem we’re singing
this morning, “We wait for thy loving kindness”. On a personal
note, Sir William retired to Ottawa, having married a Canadian,
and where on a few occasions filled in for me when I was
organist at St. Barnabas’ Church there in the early/mid 1970s.
