Psalm 118(119):28,72,89,101,104,163
*Your word is a lamp for my steps, O Lord.*
My soul pines away with grief;
by your word raise me up.
The law from your mouth means more to me
than silver and gold.
*Your word is a lamp for my steps, O Lord.*
Your word, O Lord, for ever
stands firm in the heavens:
I turn my feet from evil paths
to obey your word.
*Your word is a lamp for my steps, O Lord.*
I gain understanding from your precepts
and so I hate false ways.
Lies I hate and detest
but your law is my love.
*Your word is a lamp for my steps, O Lord.*
*Gospel Acclamation* cf.Col3:16a,17
Alleluia, alleluia!
Let the message of Christ, in all its richness,
find a home with you;
through him give thanks to God the Father.
Alleluia!
