Matthew 5.10 Collect of the Day: Eternal God, neither death nor life can separate us from your love: grant that we may serve you faithfully here on earth, and in heaven rejoice with all your saints who ceaselessly proclaim your glory; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. 1 A reading from the book of the Revelation of St John the Divine 6 After this I looked, and there was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, robed in white, with palm branches in their hands. They cried out in a loud voice, saying, Here is a wretch who cried and the | Lord | heard me: and | saved me · from | all my | troubles. 7 The angel of the Lord encamps round | those who | fear him: and de|livers · them | in their | need. O taste and see that the | Lord is | good: happy are | they that | hide in | him! ‘Salvation belongs to our God who is seated on the throne, and to the Lamb!’ And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshipped God, singing, ‘Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honour and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen.’ I said to him, ‘Sir, you are the one that knows.’ Then he said to me, ‘These are they who have come out of the great ordeal; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. For this reason they are before the throne of God, and worship him day and night within his temple, and the one who is seated on the throne will shelter them. They will hunger no more, and thirst no more; the sun will not strike them, nor any scorching heat; for the Lamb at the centre of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of the water of life, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’ Revelation 7.9-17 The Psalm: 34 1-10, 22 join in the Gloria .) 9 10 Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and where have they come from?’ Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church 8 Thanks be to God. (will be sung by the choir and the congregation is invited to ¶22 Fear the Lord all | you his | holy ones: for those who | fear him | never | lack. Lions may suffer | want ∙ and go | hungry: but those who seek the | Lord lack | nothing | good. The Lord ransoms the | lives ∙ of his | servants: and none who hide in |him will | be de|stroyed. Glo|ry to | God: Father | Son and | Holy | Spirit; as in the be|ginning · so | now: and for | ever | A|men. A reading from the first letter of St John See what love the Father has given us, that we should be called children of God; and that is what we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now; what we will be has not yet been revealed. What we do know is this: when he is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is. And all who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure. 1 John 3.1-3 Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church Thanks be to God. Gradual Hymn: For all the saints who've shown your love (see insert) The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ according to St Matthew Glory to you Lord Jesus Christ. When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down, his disciples came to him. Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying: 1 2 3 4 5 I will bless the | Lord con|tinually: his praise shall be | always | in my | mouth. Let my soul | boast · of the | Lord: the humble shall | hear it | and re|joice. O praise the | Lord with | me: let us ex|alt his | name to|gether. For I sought the Lord’s | help · and he | answered: and he | freed me · from | all my | fears. Look towards him and be | bright with | joy: your | faces · shall | not · be a|shamed. 2 ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ‘Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. ‘Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. ‘Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. ‘Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy. ‘Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. ‘Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. ‘Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. ‘Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Holytrinity.sh Music Notes for Choral Evensong - 2 November 2014 for All Saints Day The Introit is “The Souls of the Righteous“ by English musician and composer Stanley Marchant (1883-1949). He held a range of musical positions including organist at Paul’s Cathedral London from 1927 to 1936 and Principal of the Royal Academy of Music. The words of this short anthem are based on Wisdom 3, 1&2. The souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there shall no torment touch them. In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die, but they are in peace. Psalm 150 is sung to the festive setting by the C V Stanford (1852-1924). The Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis will be sung to the setting in D by the English organist and composer Herbert Brewer (1865-1928), a contemporary of Stanford. He held various church positions culminating in his appointment to Gloucester Cathedral in 1896. We sang his anthem “Let the people praise thee” earlier this year. The Anthem is “What are these” by the English composer and organist John Stainer (1840-1901) with words from Revelation 7, 13-17. He held a range of musical appointments including organist at Paul’s Cathedral London from 1872 to 1888 (see Stanley Marchant above) and Professor of Music at Oxford. He composed a range of church music including the cantata “The Crucifixion” for which he is best known today. Hallelujah! What are these that are arrayed in white robes and whence come they? These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. Hallelujah! Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in His temple: They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them unto living fountains of waters: And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes. 3
