M USIC N OTES
The organ piece before High Mass is Wondrous Love: Variations on a shape-note hymn by
Samuel Barber (1910-1981). Barber was one of the 20 th century’s great American
composers. These variations are in a perhaps uniquely American concept – we hear
German Baroque influences as well as blues and jazz-inspired melodies and rhythms.
Wondrous Love is a hymn from The Southern Harmony, a volume of shape-note hymns
compiled by William Walker and published in 1835. These hymns were printed in a
different notational system. The individual note heads had different shapes – squares,
circles, diamonds and triangles – whereas the notes in modern hymnals are all circles. The
different shapes represented a different pitch of the scale.
The final hymn for today, Lift every voice and sing , will be sung in celebration of
Martin Luther King Day (Januar y 21). This hymn is often referred to as the
African-American National Anthem.
After mass we will hear Reverie, an organ piece by William Gr ant Still (1895 1978). He was the Afr ican-Amer ican to conduct major American or chestras and
the first to have his music played by them. His music was also played dur ing his
lifetime by the Berlin Philharmonic and the London Symphony Orchestra, among
others. Reverie has a meditative and dream -like quality, as its French name
suggests. We can also hear the influences of jazz and impressionism.

And also with you.
Celebrant Let us pray.
Almighty God, whose Son our Savior Jesus Christ is the light of the world: Grant
that your people, illumined by your Word and Sacraments, may shine with the
radiance of Christ's glory, that he may be known, worshipped, and obeyed to the
ends of the earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy
Spirit lives and reigns, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading—I Samuel 3: 1-10
Now the boy Samuel was ministering to the LORD under Eli. The word of the
LORD was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. At that time Eli,
whose eyesight had begun to grow dim so that he could not see, was lying down
in his room; the lamp of God had not yet gone out, and Samuel was lying down
in the temple of the LORD, where the ark of God was. Then the LORD called,
“Samuel! Samuel!” and he said, “Here I am!” and ran to Eli, and said, “Here I am,
for you called me.” But he said, “I did not call; lie down again.” So he went and
lay down. The LORD called again, “Samuel!” Samuel got up and went to Eli, and
said, “Here I am, for you called me.” But he said, “I did not call, my son; lie
down again.” Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, and the word of the
LORD had not yet been revealed to him. The LORD called Samuel again, a third
time. And he got up and went to Eli, and said, “Here I am, for you called me.”
Then Eli perceived that the LORD was calling the boy. Therefore Eli said to
Samuel, “Go, lie down; and if he calls you, you shall say, 'Speak, LORD, for your
servant is listening.'” So Samuel went and lay down in his place. Now the LORD
came and stood there, calling as before, “Samuel! Samuel!” And Samuel said,
“Speak, for your servant is listening.”

O God, you are my God;
ea- ger- ly I seek
you.
O God, you are my God; eagerly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my flesh
faints for you, as in a barren and dry land where there is no water. Therefore
have I gazed upon you in your holy place, that I might behold your power and
your glory.
All repeat refrain.
For your loving-kindness is better than life itself; my lips shall give you praise. So
will I bless you as long as I live; and lift up my hands in your Name.
All repeat refrain.
My soul is content, as with marrow and fatness, and my mouth praises you with
joyful lips. When I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the night
watches.
All repeat refrain.
For you have been my helper, and under the shadow of your wings will I rejoice.
My soul clings to you; your right hand holds me fast.
All repeat refrain.
Second Reading—I Corinthians 6: 11b-20
You were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord
Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God. “All things are lawful for me,” but not
all things are beneficial. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be
dominated by anything. “Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for
food,” and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is meant not for
fornication but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. And God raised the Lord
and will also raise us by his power. Do you not know that your bodies are
members of Christ? Should I therefore take the members of Christ and make
them members of a prostitute? Never! Do you not know that whoever is united to
a prostitute becomes one body with her? For it is said, “The two shall be one
flesh.” But anyone united to the Lord becomes one spirit with him. Shun
fornication! Every sin that a person commits is outside the body; but the
fornicator sins against the body itself. Or do you not know that your body is a
temple of the Holy Spirit within you, which you have from God, and that you are
not your own? For you were bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your
body.

Glory to you, Lord Christ.
The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him,
“Follow me.” Now Philip was from Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
Philip found Nathanael and said to him, “We have found him about whom Moses
in the law and also the prophets wrote, Jesus son of Joseph fro m Nazareth.”
Nathanael said to him, “Can anything good come out of Nazareth?” Philip said to
him, “Come and see.” When Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward him, he said of
him, “Here is truly an Israelite in whom there is no deceit!” Nathanael asked him,
“Where did you get to know me?” Jesus answered, “I saw you under the fig tree
before Philip called you.” Nathanael replied, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God!
You are the King of Israel!” Jesus answered, “Do you believe because I told you
that I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.” And he
said to him, “Very truly, I tell you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of
God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man.”

Most merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word,

your ways, to the glory of your Name. Amen.

We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and love which you have made
known to us in creation; in the calling of Israel to be your people; in your Word
spoken through the prophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, your Son.
For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate from the Virgin Mary, to be the
Savior and Redeemer of the world. In him, you have delivered us from evil, and
made us worthy to stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of error into
truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life. On the night before he
died for us, our Lord Jesus Christ took bread; and when he had given thanks to you,
he broke it, and gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat: This is my Body, which
is given for you. Do this for the remembrance of me.” After supper he took the cup
of wine; and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and said, “Drink this, all
of you: This is my Blood of the new Covenant, which is shed for you and for many
for the forgiveness of sins. Whenever you drink it, do this for the remembrance of
me.” Therefore, according to his command, O Father,

presenting to you, from your creation, this bread and this wine. We pra y you,
gracious God, to send your Holy Spirit upon these gifts that they may be the
Sacrament of the Body of Christ and his Blood of the new Covenant. Unite us to
your Son in his sacrifice, that we may be acceptable through him, being sanctified by
the Holy Spirit. In the fullness of time, put all things in subjection under your
Christ, and bring us to that heavenly country where, with the ever -blessed Virgin
Mary and all your saints, we may enter the everlasting heritage of your sons and
daughters; through Jesus Christ our Lord, the firstborn of all creation, the head of
the Church, and the author of our salvation. By him, and with him, and in him, in
the unity of the Holy Spirit all honor and glory is yours, Almighty Father, now and
for ever. AMEN.

CANDLEMAS & PARISH DINNER
We celebrate the Feast of the Presentation, also known as Candlemas, with High
Mass on Monday, February 2 at 6:30 p.m. Candlemas remembers the presentation
of Jesus in the Temple by his parents, according to Jewish custom, forty days after
his Nativity. It is also the time when Simeon proclaims the canticle that has come
to be known as the Nunc dimittis: “Lord, you now have set your servant free to go
in peace as you have promised; for these eyes of mine have seen the Savior, whom
you have prepared for all the world to see: a light to enlighten the nations, and the
14
glory of your people Israel.” The nickname “Candlemas” comes from the ancient
and moving custom, which we still observe, of a blessing of and procession with
lighted candles. Please mark your calendars and join us that evening for High Mass
followed by a parish dinner.
