Lead me, Lord, in the way everlasting.O Lord, you search me and you know me.You yourself know my resting and my rising;you discern my thoughts from afar.You mark when I walk or lie down;you know all my ways through and through.Before ever a word is on my tongue,you know it, O Lord, through and through.Behind and before, you besiege me,your hand ever laid upon me.Too wonderful for me, this knowledge;too high, beyond my reach.O where can I go from your spirit,or where can I flee from your face?If I climb the heavens, you are there.If I lie in the grave, you are there.If I take the wings of the dawnor dwell at the sea’s furthest end,even there your hand would lead me;your right hand would hold me fast.R/. Lead me, Lord, in the way everlasting.Alleluia, Alleluia.You will shine as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life.Alleluia.Gospel: Luke 17:1-6A reading from the Holy Gospel according to Luke.At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, “Temptations to sin are sure to come; but woe to thee one by whom they come!It would be better for him if a millstone were hung round his neck and he were cast into the sea, than that he should cause one of these little ones to sin.Take heed to yourselves; if your brother sins, rebuke him, and if he repents, forgive him; and if he sins against you seven times in the day, and turns to you seven times, and says, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.” The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!” And the Lord said, “If you had faith as a grain of mustard seed, you could say to this sycamine tree, ‘Be rooted up and be planted in the sea,’ and it would obey you.”The Gospel of the Lord.Communion Antiphon: Peter said to Jesus: You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. And Jesus replied: You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church.
