The anthem during communion is "The Beatitudes" by the contemporary English
Composer William Llewellyn (b 1925). It is based on today's Gospel Reading and
Psalm 25, 4, and accompanied on the new Schimmel piano. The concluding voluntary is "Pavilioned in Splendour" by the contemporary English organist/
composer Richard Lloyd (b 1933).

Ye holy angels bright

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

Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, ‘Who are these, robed in white, and
where have they come from?’

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:

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.

‘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.
Matthew 5.1-12

Church a sausage sizzle follows.
Roster for 2015 for Flower Arranging, Brass cleaning & Dusting Kindly read and
complete form in the Narthex—- new comers very welcome. Elizabeth Dyer
TRINITY@HOME Ladies group will NOT be meeting on Thursday the 6th of November
as this is Fair week and all rooms will be set up for the Fair Jenny
Trinity @ Home Ladies Group. Our final meeting for the year will be Morning Tea at
the Freckled Hen; Union Road, Thursday the 4th of December at 1030 am on. Cost
$12 per person. We will be in the courtyard, I have tried it out and it is very pleasant and quiet! Please sign the sheet in the Narthex so that I can provide numbers
for catering. Jenny.
New piano for Holy Trinity We wish to express our thanks to Barbara Rounsevell who
has donated the new Vogel by Schimmel piano which will be dedicated
today replacing the Beale piano which has been moved to Carter Hall. We also
wish to thank Richard Hoy, Ivor Buxton and Jennifer James who spent many of
hours on several days researching and playing pianos to find the most suitable
instrument. We are sure it will provide many years of beautiful music to choirs,
congregations and performers alike. At the end of the service after the postlude
Jennifer James will play the Schubert Impromptu in A flat, Op. 90 no. 4 on the new
piano.
Promoting the Spring Fair Thank you to those who took bundles of the flyers to distribute to letter boxes in the area. We still have a few left to go. For parishioners
who live in retirement villages and apartments, please take a flyer or two to go up
1
on community notice boards. It all helps to spread the word.
Plant Stall It would be appreciated if plants that are being prepared for the Fair
could please be labelled, as that makes it much easier to sell them and to get a
better price. And so that the plant stall ladies have time to price them, please
bring the plants by Thursday lunchtime. Many thanks – June Anderson 9808 0390
Pre-loved Clothing – Donations of good quality, clean clothes will be accepted for
sale at the Fair. Please bring to the Church on Cup Day, or prior to Friday 7th November, for sorting and pricing. Goods which sell well are children’s clothing,
coats, mens’ clothing, ladies wear etc. Sporting clothes and sleepwear does not
seem to be particularly appealing.
Sorry, but we cannot accept donations of
underwear or swim wear. Please contact Kaye Ives or Maureen Barns if you require the goods to be collected from your home. Thank you – Kaye & Maureen
Cake Stall To all of our wonderful cooks here it is Fair time once again andmI am

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.
