The Solemn Procession of Palms in Honor of Christ the King

The Distribution and Blessing of the Palms (during Hymn)

Hymn: 619 Palms of Glory (Culbach)

The Reading of the Gospel (St Matthew 21. 1.) p. 96

WHEN they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples, saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me. And if any man say aught unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them. All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Prophet, saying,

Tell ye the daughter of Sion,
Behold, thy King cometh unto thee,
Meek, and sitting upon an ass,
And a colt the foal of an ass.

And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them; and brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon. And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way. And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the Son of David; Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest. And when he was come into Jerusalem all the city was moved, saying, Who is this? And the multitude said, This is Jesus the Prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple; and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves; and said unto them, It is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves.

The Procession with Blessed Palms

V/ Let us go forth in peace.
R/ In the Name of the Lord. Amen

Hymn: 130 All Glory, Laud and Honor (St. Theodulph)

Station at the Rood Screen

V/ When the people heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, they went forth to meet him.
R/With branches of palms: Hosanna, they cried, in the highest.
V/The Lord be with you.
R/And with thy spirit
Let us pray.
O Lord Jesu Christ, Our King and Redeemer, to whose honor wehave sung our solemn praises; mercifully grant; that wherever these branches are carried,the grace of thy benediction may descend, and, all the wickedness and craft of the devil being done away, thy right hand may protect those whom Thou hastredeemed: who livest and reignst world without end. Amen.

Summary of the Law p. 69

THE COLLECT. p. 150

ALMIGHTY and everlasting God, who, of thy tender love towards mankind, hast sent thy Son our Saviour Jesus Christ, to take upon him our flesh, and to suffer death upon the cross, that all mankind should follow the example of his great humility: Mercifully grant, that we may both follow the example of his patience, and also be made partakers of his resurrection; through the same Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

THE EPISTLE. Philippians 2. 5. p. 150

LET this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: who, being in the form of God, counted it not a prize to be equal to God, but emptied himself, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: and being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him the name which is above every name; that at the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; and that every tongue should confess JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, to the glory of God the Father.

Gradual Psalm 22 vs.12-21 p. 355

12 MANY oxen are come about me; / strong bulls of Bashan close me in on every side.
13 They gape upon me with their mouths, / as it were a ramping and a roaring lion.
14 I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint; / my heart also in the midst of my body is even like melting wax.
15 My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue cleaveth to my gums, / and thou bringest me into the dust of death.
16 For many dogs are come about me, / and the council of the wicked layeth siege against me.
17 They pierced my hands and my feet; I may count all my bones: / they stand staring and looking upon me.
18 They part my garments among them, / and cast lots upon my vesture.
19 But be not thou far from me, O LORD; / thou art my succour, haste thee to help me.
20 Deliver my soul from the sword, / and my life from the power of the dog.
21 Save me from the Lion’s mouth; / thou hast heard me also from among the horns of the wild oxen.
