Welcome to the Chapel for our worship this morning. Our service is streamed (broadcast) live on the Old Royal Naval College Facebook page and YouTube Channel. Whilst we try our best to ensure that members of the congregation are not shown on camera this may occur momentarily.

The setting of the mass is the Communion Service in F by H. Darke (1888 -1976). Please note that due to Covid-19 restrictions there are a number of changes to our usual practices. The Government have made the wearing of a face mask/face covering whilst attending a service mandatory. We have masks available should you need one. Please speak to the Chaplain should you find wearing a face mask difficult.All are welcome to come forward to receive Holy Communion (bread only) or a blessing. These will be given and received in silence and standing. Please wait until directed to come forwards to the sanctuary steps.

A collection will not be taken during the service but devices to receive your donations using contactless will be available as you leave the Chapel. A basket to receive cash will be on the table at the back. Please ask if these are not obvious to you. Closure has meant a substantial drop in income and we are very grateful for any donations to support the Chapel Fund. Details on gift aid for contactless donations are at the back of the service sheet.

We are sorry that at this time we are unable to offer the use of the Queen Mary Undercroft as a self service crèche facility. Families are welcome to go outside and then re-enter to give children a break during the service. Toilets and handwashing facilities are available in the King William (Painted Hall) Undercroft.

Refreshments after the service are currently suspended.

A spotless Rose is blowing,Sprung from a tender root,Of ancient seers' foreshowing,Of Jesse promised fruit;Its fairest bud unfolds to lightAmid the cold, cold winter,and in the dark mid-night.The Rose which I am singing,Whereof Isaiah said,Is from its sweet root springingIn Mary, purest Maid;For through our God's great love and mightThe Blessed Babe she bare usIn a cold, cold winter's night.Music: Herbert Howells (1892-1983)

and judgement;For you are our light and our salvation.

All  Blessed be God for ever  

THE LORD’S PRAYERAll Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy

name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. Amen.

PRAYER OF PREPARATIONAll Almighty God, unto whom all hearts be open, all

desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid; Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen

THE COMMANDMENTSOur Lord Jesus Christ said: Hear O Israel, The Lord our God is one Lord; and thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.

All Lord, have mercy upon us, and write all these thy laws in our hearts, we beseech thee.

All Amen.

THE LITURGY OF THE WORDSit for the readings

First Reading Isaiah 40: 1-11Read by Leslie Howard

Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and cry to herthat her warfare is ended, that her iniquity is pardoned,that she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins.A voice cries:“In the wilderness prepare the way of the Lord,

Make straight in the desert a highway for our God.Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low;the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain.And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together, for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.”A voice says, “Cry!” And I said, “What shall I cry?”All flesh is grass, and all its beauty is like the flower of the field.The grass withers, the flower fades, when the breath of the Lord blows upon it; surely the people is grass.The grass withers, the flower fades; but the word of our God will stand for ever.Get you up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings;lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings, lift it up, fear not;say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!”Behold, the Lord God comes with might, and his arm rules for him;behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.He will feed his flock like a shepherd, he will gather the lambs in his arms,he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.This is the word of the Lord.

All Thanks be to God

Second Reading 2 Peter 3: 8-15aRead by Anthea Larken

But do not ignore this one fact, beloved, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow about his promise as some count slowness, but is forbearing toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fire, and the earth and the works that are upon it will be burned up.Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of persons ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be kindled and dissolved, and the elements will melt with fire! But according to his promise we wait for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.Therefore, beloved, since you wait for these, be zealous to be found by him without spot or blemish, and at peace. And count the forbearance of our Lord as salvation.This is the word of the Lord.

All Thanks be to God

Gradual Psalm 85: 1-2, 8-endLORD, thou art become gracious unto thy land :

thou hast turned away the captivity of Jacob.Thou hast forgiven the offence of thy people :

and covered all their sins.I will hearken what the Lord God will say concerning me :

for he shall speak peace unto his people, and to his saints, that they turn not again.

For his salvation is nigh them that fear him : that glory may dwell in our land.

Mercy and truth are met together : righteousness and peace have kissed each other.

Truth shall flourish out of the earth : and righteousness hath looked down from heaven.

Yea, the Lord shall shew loving-kindness : and our land shall give her increase.

Righteousness shall go before him : and he shall direct his going in the way.

Please stand for the reading of the Gospel

GOSPELThe Holy Gospel is written in the 1st chapter of the Gospel according to Saint Mark, beginning at the 1st verse.

All Glory be to Thee, O Lord.The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.As it is written in Isaiah the prophet,

“Behold, I send my messenger before thy face,who shall prepare thy way;the voice of one crying in the wilderness:Prepare the way of the Lord,

make his paths straight—”John the baptiser appeared in the wilderness, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And there went out to him all the country of Judea, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were baptised by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Now John was clothed with camel’s hair, and had a leather girdle around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. And he preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I have baptised you with water; but he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit.”This is the Gospel of the Lord.

All Praise be to Thee, O Christ.

All I believe in one God the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible:And in one Lord Jesus Christ the only-begotten Son of God,begotten of his Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made,

being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made;who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Ghost of the Virgin Mary, and was made man, and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried, and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven,and sitteth on the right hand of the Father. And he shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead: whose kingdom shall have no end.And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and giver of life,who proceedeth from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified, who spake by the prophets.And I believe one catholic and apostolic Church.I acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins. And I look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.

INTERCESSIONS Let us pray for the whole state of Christ’s Church militant here in earth.

Brief biddings are given

Almighty and ever-living God, who by thy holy apostle hast taught us to make prayers and supplications, and to give thanks, for all men: we humbly beseech thee most mercifully to accept our alms and oblations, and to receive these our prayers, which we offer unto thy divine majesty; beseeching thee to inspire continually the universal Church with the spirit of truth, unity, and concord: and grant, that all they that do confess thy holy name may agree in the truth of thy holy word, and live in unity and godly love.We beseech thee also to save and defend all Christian kings, princes and governors; and specially thy servant Elizabeth our Queen, that under her we may be godly and quietly governed: and grant unto her whole Council, and to all that are put in authority under her, that they may truly and impartially minister justice, to the punishment of wickedness and vice, and to the maintenance of thy true religion and virtue.Give grace, O heavenly Father, to all bishops, priests and deacons, that they may both by their life and doctrine set forth thy true and lively word, and rightly and duly administer thy holy sacraments: and to all thy people give thy heavenly grace; and specially to this congregation here present; that, with meek heart and due reverence, they may hear and receive thy holy word; truly serving thee in holiness and righteousness all the days of their life.

And we most humbly beseech thee of thy goodness, O Lord, to comfort and succour all them, who in this transitory life are in trouble, sorrow, need, sickness, or any other adversity.And we also bless thy holy name for all thy servants departed this life in thy faith and fear; beseeching thee to give us grace so to follow their good examples, that with them we may be partakers of thy heavenly kingdom.Grant this, O Father, for Jesus Christ's sake, our only mediator and advocate.

All Amen.

We say together the Chapel PrayerO eternal Lord God, our Creator and our Judge, hear our prayer as we offer to Thee our worship and thanksgiving.Keep us mindful of those who have conducted their business on the seas in the defence of this realm; those who have worshipped in this Chapel through the centuries and those who seek now both to follow their faithful example and to spread the glorious news of Thy gospel. Preserve us in all our doings and grant us Thy continuous help. We ask this in the name of Him whose Light we follow, shining as a beacon across the ocean of our life, even Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.O Trinity of love and power,Our brethren shield in danger’s hour;From rock and tempest, fire and foe,Protect them whereso’er they go:And ever let there rise to TheeGlad hymns of praise from land and sea.Words: William Whiting (1825-1878)

INVITATION TO CONFESSIONYe that do truly and earnestly repent you of your sins, and are in love and charity with your neighbours, and intend to lead a new life, following the commandments of God, and walking from henceforth in his holy ways: draw near with faith, and take this holy sacrament to your comfort; and make your humble confession to almighty God, meekly kneeling upon your knees.

CONFESSIONAll Almighty God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

maker of all things, judge of all men: we acknowledge and bewail our manifold sins and wickedness, which we, from time to time, most grievously have committed, by thought, word and deed, against thy divine majesty, provoking most justly thy wrath and indignation against us. We do earnestly repent, and are heartily sorry for these our misdoings; the remembrance of them is grievous unto us; the burden of them is intolerable. Have mercy upon us, 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.

ABSOLUTIONAlmighty God, our heavenly Father, who of his great mercy hath promised forgiveness of sins to all them that with hearty repentance and true faith turn unto him: have mercy upon you; pardon and deliver you from all your sins; confirm and strengthen you in all

goodness; and bring you to everlasting life; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

All Amen.

THE COMFORTABLE WORDSHear what comfortable words our Saviour Christ saith unto all that truly turn to him: Come unto me, all that travail and are heavy laden, and I will refresh you.

Matthew 11.28

So God loved the world, that he gave his only-begotten Son, to the end that all that believe in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3.16

PREFACEThe Lord be with you

All and with thy spirit.Lift up your hearts.

All We lift them up unto the Lord.Let us give thanks unto our Lord God.

All It is meet and right so to do.It is very meet, right and our bounden duty, that we should at all times, and in all places, give thanks unto thee, O Lord, holy Father, almighty, everlasting God.And now we give thee thanks because when he

humbled himselfto come among us in human flesh, he fulfilled the plan thou formed long ago and opened for us the way of salvation.

Page 17: History Worth Exploring - Old Royal Naval College Old Royal Naval …€¦  · Web view2020. 12. 4. · the uneven ground shall become ... most grievously have committed, by thought,

So now we watch for the day, knowing that the salvation promised us will be ours when Christ our Lord will come again in glory.Therefore with angels and archangels, and with all the company of heaven, we laud and magnify thy glorious name, evermore praising thee, and singing:

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God of hosts, heaven and earth are full of thy glory. Glory be to thee, O Lord most high.Hosanna in the highest.

PRAYER OF HUMBLE ACCESSAll We do not presume to come to this thy table, O merciful

Lord, trusting in our own righteousness, but in thy manifold and great mercies. We are not worthy so much as to gather up the crumbs under thy table. But thou art the same Lord, whose property is always to have mercy: grant us therefore, gracious Lord, so to eat the flesh of thy dear Son Jesus Christ, and to drink his blood, that our sinful bodies may be made clean by his body, and our souls washed through his most precious blood, and that we may evermore dwell in him, and he in us. Amen.

PRAYER OF CONSECRATIONAlmighty God, our heavenly Father, who of thy tender mercy didst give thine only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the cross for our redemption; who made there (by his one oblation of himself once offered) a full, perfect and sufficient sacrifice, oblation and satisfaction for the sins of the whole world; and did institute, and in his holy gospel command us to continue, a perpetual memory of that his precious

death, until his coming again: Hear us, O merciful Father, we most humbly beseech thee; and grant that we receiving these thy creatures of bread and wine, according to thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ's holy institution, in remembrance of his death and passion, may be partakers of his most blessed body and blood: who, in the same night that he was betrayed, took bread; and, when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, Take, eat; this is my body which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me. Likewise after supper he took the cup; and, when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of this; for this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for you and for many for the remission of sins: do this, as oft as ye shall drink it, in remembrance of me.

All Amen.The President receives communion in both kinds on behalf of us all. Members of the congregation are invited to come forwards to receive the Body of our Lord or a Blessing. The Communion and the Blessing are given and received in silence. Please follow the directions of the stewards.

AGNUS DEI O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.O Lamb of God, that takest away the sins of the world, grant us thy peace.

Anthem

Es ist ein Ros' entsprungen, aus einer Wurzel zart,Wie uns die Alten sungen, von Jesse kam die Art,Und hat ein Blumlein bracht mitten I'm kalten WinterWohl zu der halben Nacht.

Das Roslein, das ich meine, davon Jesaias sagt,Ist Maria die Reine uns das Blumlein bracht.Aus Gottes ew'gen Rat hat sie ein Kind geborenUnd blieb ein' reine Magd.

Das Blumelein, so kleine, das duftet uns so su?Mit seinem hellen Scheine vertreibt's die Finsternis.Wahr' Mensch und wahrer Gott, hilft uns aus allen Leiden,Rettet von Sund' und Tod.

A rose has sprung up,from a tender root,As the old ones sang to us,Its strain came from JesseAnd it has brought forth a floweretIn the middle of the cold winterWell at half the night.

The little rose that I mean,Of which Isaiah toldIs Mary, the pure,Who brought us the floweret.At God’s eternal counselShe has borne a childAnd remained a pure maid.

The floweret, so smallThat smells so sweet to usWith its bright gleamIt dispels the darkness.True man and true God,It helps us from all trouble,Saves us from sin and death.

THE LORD’S PRAYERAs our Saviour Christ hath commanded and taught us, we are bold to say

All Our Father, which art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done, in earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

PRAYER AFTER COMMUNIONAlmighty and ever-living God, we most heartily thank thee, for that thou dost vouchsafe to feed us, who have duly received these holy mysteries, with the spiritual food of the most precious body and blood of thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ; and dost assure us thereby of thy favour and goodness towards us; and that we are very members incorporate in the mystical body of thy Son, which is the blessed company of all faithful people; and are also heirs through hope of thy everlasting kingdom, by the merits of the most precious death and passion of thy dear Son. And we most humbly beseech thee, O heavenly Father, so to assist us with thy grace, that we may continue in that holy fellowship, and do all such good works as thou hast prepared for us to walk in; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost, be all honour and glory, world without end.

All Amen.
