Introit: Psalm xcvi: 7-8

Adore God, all you His angels. Sion heard and was glad, and the daughters of Juda rejoiced. [Ps.] The Lord has reigned, let the earth rejoice, let the many islands be glad. Glory be.... Adore God....

Collect:

O God,  who knowest us to be set in the midst of dangers so great that, by  reason of  the  frailty  of  our  nature  we  cannot  always withstand; grant  us health  of mind  and body,  that being  helped by Thee, we may overcome the things which we suffer for our sins.

Epistle: Romans xiii: 8-10

    A reading from the Epistle of blessed Paul the Apostle to the Romans:
Brethren:  Owe  no man  anything, but  love one  another:   for he that loves his  neighbor has  fulfilled the law.  For thou shalt not commit adultery:  Thou shalt not kill:  Thou shalt not steal:  Thou shalt not bear false  witness:  Thou shalt not covet:  and if there be any other commandment, it  is comprised  in this  word:   Thou  shalt  love  thy neighbor as  thy self.   The love of our neighbor works no evil.  Love therefore is the fulfilling of the law.

Gradual: Psalm ci: 16-17

The Gentiles shall fear Thy name, O Lord, and all the kings of the earth Thy glory. For the Lord has built up Sion, and He shall be seen in His glory.
Alleluia, alleluia. The Lord has reigned, let the earth rejoice: let the many islands be glad. Alleluia.

Gospel: Matthew viii: 23-27

    +    The continuation of the Holy Gospel according to Matthew:
At that time, when Jesus entered into the boat, His disciples followed Him:   And behold,  a great tempest arose in the sea, so that the boat was covered with waves:  But He was asleep.  And His disciples came to Him and  woke Him, saying, "Lord, save us, for we are perishing."  And Jesus said  to them,  "Why are  you so fearful, O ye of little faith?" Then rising  up, He  commanded the winds and the sea, and there came a great calm.   But  the men  wondered, saying,  "What manner of man is this, that the winds and the sea obey Him?"

Credo.

Offertory: Psalm cxvii: 16,17

The right hand of the Lord hath wrought strength: the right hand of the Lord has exalted me: I shall not die but live, and shall declare the works of the Lord.
