O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name through all the earth!When I see the heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars which you arranged, what is man that you should keep him in mind, the son of man that you care for him?Yet you have made him little lower than the angels; with glory and honour, you crowned him, gave him power over the works of your hands.You put all things under his feet, all of them, sheep and oxen, yes, even the cattle of the fields, birds of the air, and fish of the sea that make their way through the waters.R/. O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name through all the earth!Second Reading: Romans 5: 1-5Brothers and sisters: Since we are justified by faith,  we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.  Through him, we have obtained access  to this grace in which we stand,  and we rejoice in our hope of sharing the glory of God.  More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings,  knowing that suffering produces endurance,  and endurance produces character,  and character produces hope,  and hope does not disappoint us,  because God’s love has been poured into our hearts  through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.Gospel: John 16: 12-15At that time:  Jesus said to his disciples,  “I have yet many things to say to you,  but you cannot bear them now.  When the Spirit of truth comes,  he will guide you into all the truth;  for he will not speak on his own authority,  but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you  the things that are to come.  He will glorify me,  for he will take what is mine  and declare it to you.  All that the Father has is mine;  therefore I said that he will take what is mine  and declare it to you.”
