FIFTH SUNDAY IN LENT, APRIL 03, 2022 Scripture
Reading: John 12:1–8
Additional Scriptures: Psalm 126;
Isaiah 43:16–21; Philippians 3:4b–14
Comfort Thy people, O Lord, and deliver us from the evil
captivity of sin, that what we sow here in tears, we may reap in joy through
Thy bounty; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with Thee and
the Holy Ghost, One God, world without end. Amen.[2]
Almighty God, You alone can bring into order the unruly wills and
affections of sinners: Grant Your people grace to love what You command and
desire what You promise; that, among the swift and varied changes of the world,
our hearts may surely there be fixed where true joys are to be found; through
Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one
God, now and forever. Amen[3]
