MISSAL PROPERS:
FOURTH SUNDAY AFTER EASTER
INTROIT. Cantate Domino. Ps. 98
O SING unto the Lord a new
song, alleluia: for the Lord hath done marvellous things, alleluia:
his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen,
alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. Ps. ibid. With his own right
hand and with his holy arm: hath he gotten himself the victory.
V. Glory be.
COLLECT.
O ALMIGHTY GOD, who alone canst order the unruly wills and affections
of sinful men: grant unto thy people that they may love the thing
which thou commandest, and desire that which thou dost promise;
that so, among the sundry and manifold changes of the world our
hearts may surely there be fixed, where true joys are to be found.
[Through.]

EPISTLE. St. James 1:17-21
17 DEARLY beloved: Every good gift and every perfect
gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights,
with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
18 Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we
should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
19 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to
hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
20 For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
21 Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness,
and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to
save your souls.
Alleluia, alleluia. V. Psalm 118 The right hand of
the Lord hath the pre-eminence: the right hand of the Lord bringeth
might things to pass. Alleluia. V. Rom 6, 9. Christ being
raised from the dead dieth no more: death hath no more dominion
over him. Alleluia.
GOSPEL. Saint John 16:5-15
5 AT that time, Jesus said
unto His disciples: Now I go my way to him that sent me; and
none of you asketh me, Whither goest thou?
6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath
filled your heart.
7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you
that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not
come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and
of righteousness, and of judgment:
9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me
no more;
11 Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.
12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear
them now.
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide
you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever
he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things
to come.
14 He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall
show it unto you.
15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I,
that he shall take of mine, and shall show it unto you.
OFFERTORY. Psalm 66 O be joyful in God,
all ye lands, sing praises unto the honour of his Name: O come
hither, and hearken, all ye that fear God, and I will tell you
what the Lord hath done for my soul. Alleluia.
SECRET.
O GOD, who by the wondrous operation of this sacrifice, hast
made us partakers of thy glorious Godhead: grant, we beseech
thee, that we which are taught the knowledge of thy truth, may
in all our conversation walk worthily of the same. [Through.]
COMMUNION. St. John 16. When the Comforter,
the Spirit of Truth, is come, he will reprove the world of sin,
and of righteousness, and of judgement, alleluia, alleluia.
POSTCOMMUNION.
ASSIST us mercifully, O Lord our God: that we, which have in
faithfulness received this holy Sacrament, may thereby be cleansed
from all our iniquities, and delivered from all dangers that
beset us. [Through.]
