THE COLLECT Almighty and everlasting God, who hast exalted thy beloved Son to be King over all worlds, and hast willed in him to make all things new: mercifully grant that the kindreds of the earth which are wounded and dispersed by sin: may speedily be knit together under his gracious sovereignty. Who liveth and reigneth with thee.
THE EPISTLE Colossians 1:12-20 Brethren: We give thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light: Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the pre-eminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
THE GOSPEL St John 18:33 to 37 At that time: Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews? Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.
OFFERTORY Desire of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance: and the utmost parts of the earth for thy possession.
SECRET We present unto thee, O Lord, this sacrifice of our reconciliation, humbly beseeching that he whom at this time we offer unto thee, may himself bestow on all mankind the gifts of unity and peace, even Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord. Who liveth and reigneth with thee.
COMMUNION The Lord remaineth a King for ever: the Lord shall give his people the blessing of peace.
POSTCOMMUNION We beseech thee, O Lord: that we, who have here received the food of everlasting life, may so glory to fight under the banner of Christ our King; that we may be made worthy to reign with him for ever on his throne in heaven. Where he liveth and reigneth with thee, in the unity.
