Dominica Prima Adventus
℣. Dominus vobiscum. ℟. Et cum spiritu tuo. ℣. Oremus.
Excita, quaesumus Domine, potentiam tuam, et veni: ut ab imminentibus peccatorum nostrorum periculis, et mereamur protegente eripi, te liberante salvari. Qui vivas et regnas cum Deo Patre in unitate Spiritus Sancti Deus: per omnia saecula saeculorum. Amen. — Tridentine Traditional Latin Collect
The First Sunday of Advent
℣. The Lord be with you. ℟. And with thy spirit. ℣. Let us pray.
Almighty God, give us grace that we may cast away the works of darkness, and put upon us the armor of light, now in the time of this mortal life in which thy Son Jesus Christ came to visit us in great humility; that in the last day, when he shall come again in his glorious majesty to judge both the quick and the dead, we may rise to the life immortal; through him who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, now and for ever. Amen. — American BCP 1979, Rite I collect
Nones (Mid-Afternoon Prayer) for Saturday after the First Sunday of Advent
℣. O God, make speed to save us. ℟. O Lord, make haste to help us.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost: * as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

The Psalm
Psalm 126. In convertendo.
WHEN the LORD turned again the captivity of Sion, * then were we like unto them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, * and our tongue with joy. Then said they among the heathen, * The LORD hath done great things for them. Yea, the LORD hath done great things for us already; * whereof we rejoice. Turn our captivity, O LORD, * as the rivers in the south. They that sow in tears * shall reap in joy. He that now goeth on his way weeping, and beareth forth good seed, * shall doubtless come again with joy, and bring his sheaves with him.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost: * as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
The Chapter
From the rising of the sun to its setting my Name shall be great among the nations, and in every place incense shall be offered to my Name, and a pure offering; for my Name shall be great among the nations, says the Lord of Hosts. Malachi 1:11
℟. Thanks be to God.
The Prayers
Lord, have mercy upon us. Christ, have mercy upon us. Lord, have mercy upon us.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our tresspasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Let us pray.

THY word is a lantern unto my feet, * and a light unto my paths. I have sworn, and am stedfastly purposed, * to keep thy righteous judgments.

My soul is alway in my hand; * yet do I not forget thy law. The ungodly have laid a snare for me; * but yet I swerved not from thy commandments. Thy testimonies have I claimed as mine heritage for ever; * and why? they are the very joy of my heart. I have applied my heart to fulfil thy statutes alway, * even unto the end.
