THE COLLECT OF THE DAY
Celebrant The Lord be with you. People And also with you.
Celebrant Let us pray.
Almighty God, you know that we have no power in ourselves to help ourselves: Keep us both outwardly in our bodies and inwardly in our souls, that we may be defended from all adversities which may happen to the body, and from all evil thoughts which may assault and hurt the soul; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
All are seated. A period of silence follows the readings.
THE FIRST READING Exodus 3:1-15
Moses was keeping the flock of his father-in-law Jethro, the priest of Midian; he led his flock beyond the wilderness, and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of a bush; he looked, and the bush was blazing, yet it was not consumed. Then Moses said, “I must turn
aside and look at this great sight, and see why the bush is not burned up.” When the Lord saw that he had turned aside to see, God called to him out of the bush, “Moses, Moses!” And he said, “Here I am.” Then he said, “Come no closer! Remove the sandals from your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.” He said further, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look at God. Then the Lord said, “I have observed the misery of my people who are in Egypt; I have heard their cry on account of their taskmasters. Indeed, I know their sufferings, and I have come down to deliver them from the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey, to the country of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. The cry of the Israelites has now come to me; I have also seen how the Egyptians oppress them. So come, I will send you to Pharaoh to bring my people, the Israelites, out of Egypt.” But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh, and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?” He said, “I will be with you; and this shall be the sign for you that it is I who sent you: when you have brought the people out of Egypt, you shall worship God on this mountain.” But Moses said to God, “If I come to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your ancestors has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I am who I am.” He said further, “Thus you shall say to the Israelites, ‘I am has sent me to you.’” God also said to Moses, “Thus you shall say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your ancestors, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you’: This is my name forever, and this my title for all generations.”
Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.
All remain seated for the psalm. The refrain is intoned by a cantor, then repeated by the congregation and sung as indicated.
PSALM 63:1-8
Plainsong, Mode VIII
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 I have gazed upon you in your holy place, * that I might behold your power and your glory. 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. 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. Refrain For you have been my helper, * and under the shadow of your wings I will rejoice. My soul clings to you; * your right hand holds me fast. Refrain
I do not want you to be unaware, brothers and sisters, that our ancestors were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea, and all ate the same spiritual food, and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from the spiritual rock that followed them, and the rock was Christ. Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them, and they were struck down in the wilderness. Now these things occurred as examples for us, so that we might not desire evil as they did. Do not become idolaters as some of them did; as it is written, “The people sat down to eat and drink, and they rose up to play.” We must not indulge in sexual immorality as some of them did, and twenty-three thousand fell in a single day. We must not put Christ to the test, as some of them did, and were destroyed by serpents. And do not complain as some of them did, and were destroyed by the destroyer. These things happened to them to serve as an example, and they were written down to instruct us, on whom the ends of the ages have come. So if you think you are standing, watch out that you do not fall. No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your strength, but with the testing he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to endure it.
Reader The Word of the Lord. People Thanks be to God.
SEQUENCE HYMN 149 · Old 124th (see pg 21)
Sung by all, standing.
TRACT Ad te levavi Plainsong, Mode VIII
To you have I lifted up my eyes, to you enthroned in the heavens. V. Behold, even as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters. V. And as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress V. Even so our eyes look to the Lord our God, until he show us his mercy. V. Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Luke 13:1-9
Deacon The Holy Gospel of Our Lord Jesus Christ according to Luke. People Glory to you, Lord Christ.
At that very time there were some present who told Jesus about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices. He asked them, “Do you think that because these Galileans suffered in this way they were worse sinners than all other Galileans? No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish as they did. Or those eighteen who were killed when the tower of Siloam fell on them--do you think that they were worse offenders than all the others living in Jerusalem? No, I tell you; but unless you repent, you will all perish just as they did.” Then he told this parable: “A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came looking for fruit on it and found none. So he said to the gardener, ‘See here! For three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and still I find none. Cut it down! Why should it be wasting the soil?’ He replied, ‘Sir, let it alone for one more year, until I dig around it and put manure on it. If it bears fruit next year, well and good; but if not, you can cut it down.’”
Deacon The Gospel of the Lord. People Praise to you, Lord Christ.

AT THE OFFERTORY, ANTHEM
William Byrd (1543-1623)
Emendemus in melius quae ignoranter peccavimus, ne subito praeoccupati die mortis quaeramus spatium poenitentiae et invenire non possumus.
Attende, Domine, et miserere, quia peccavimus tibi. Adiuva nos, Deus salutaris noster, et propter honorem nominis tui libera nos.
Let us amend what we have trangressed through ignorance, lest, should the day of death suddenly overtake us, we seek time for repentance and cannot find it.
Hearken, O Lord, and have mercy, for we have sinned against thee. Help us, O God of our salvation, and, for the glory of thy name, deliver us.

THE GREAT THANKSGIVING

The Celebrant continues: It is right, and a good and joyful thing, always and everywhere to give thanks to you, Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who was tempted in every way as we are, yet did not sin. By his grace we are able to triumph over every evil, and to live no longer for ourselves alone, but for him who died for us and rose again. Therefore we praise you, joining our voices with Angels and Archangels and with all the company of heaven, who for ever sing this hymn to proclaim the glory of your Name.

About the music at today’s service
Constanzo Porta (1529-1601) studied with Adrian Willaert at St. Mark’s in Venice. A Franciscan monk, Porta became celebrated as choirmaster, holding a position at the great Franciscan church of St. Anthony of Padua. He was a prolific composer of sacred music. His work combines a Flemish skill in counterpoint inherited from Willaert with a Venetian sense of sonority. Reminiscere miserationem is a somber setting of the Introit for the Second Sunday in Lent. It is scored for five voices, with a plainsong cantus firmus in one of the tenor parts.
William Byrd’s birthplace remains unknown, though it may have been Lincoln, where he received his first appointment. He later studied in London under Thomas Tallis and was a Gentleman of the Chapel Royal there from 1570 to 1593, when he moved to Essex. Described by scholar Joseph Kerman as “an exceedingly tough-minded individual,” Byrd exhibited great boldness not only in his music but also in his career. Not the least of his impressive achievements is that he remained steadfastly Catholic during Elizabeth’s reign, when to do so was considered a criminal act. (Under James I’s more lenient policies, Byrd actually dared to publish Latin sacred music-his Gradualia of 1605 and 1607). All of Byrd’s
music is notable for its wonderful flow and for its richly colored harmonies.
Emendemus in melius is from Cantiones sacrae of 1575, a volume published jointly with Thomas Tallis. The text is a respond for the First Sunday of Lent in the Roman rite. It is one of the most “modern” of the motets in this collection; it is essentially chordal and syllabic throughout, with extraordinary treatment of dissonance. The rhythms follow every nuance of the text to project a remarkable sense of anxiety. Later in life, Byrd wrote, “There is such a profound and hidden power in sacred words, as I have learned by trial, that to one thinking upon things divine and earnestly and diligently pondering them, the most suitable of all musical measures occur (I know not how) as of themselves and suggest themselves spontaneously to the mind…” In this regard, Emendemus in melius is one of Byrd’s early masterpieces.
John Sheppard is now accepted as one of the masters of his generation. He was probably about twenty years younger than John Taverner and about five or ten years younger than Tallis and Tye. His working career was divided between Magdalen College, Oxford, where he was Master of the Choristers between 1543 and 1548 and retained some kind of association
About the music at today’s service, cont.
if only as an occasional copyist of music until 1556, and the Chapel Royal, where he was one of the Gentlemen certainly from 1552 and probably from the time he left Magdalen until at least 17 January 1559 when he is listed attending Elizabeth’s coronation. His attendance at the coronation is the last known record of his life.
Though his music has until recently remained relatively unknown, Sheppard was a prolific composer of the highest stature. Together with Thomas Tallis and Christopher Tye, he was active in the years that witnessed the culmination of Latin polyphony for the Sarum rite and then its destruction in the Reformation.
His style is immediately recognizable, since much of his writing was for the same six-part choir of treble, mean, two countertenors, tenor and bass, which he deployed to achieve the maximum sonority. He used the treble voice with unusual flair some of his harmonies were also exceptionally daring by the standards of the time. His use of the false relation could be as direct and harsh as that of any composer.
Media vita is a responsory, which in its full form lasts about 12 minutes, making
it one of the most expansive works in the repertoire from this time.

Lenten Resources
Lenten Calendars for Adults and Children
Confessions Heard for Lent
One powerful way to enter more deeply into this season of repentance and renewal is through the Sacrament of Reconciliation, commonly known as Confession. Through this sacrament, we are called to examine our relationship with God anew as we seek to draw closer to Christ. The clergy team is available to hear your confession in person. Please contact any member of the clergy team directly to schedule your confession.
Candle Memorials
In addition to flower memorials at the votive icon and for the altar flowers, we now offer candle memorials for the candle by the Blessed Sacrament. Weekly candle memorials can be requested year round and there is no suggested fee. Please contact Karyna in the Parish Office to schedule (kmartin@stlukeinthefields.org).
Calendars are available at the back of the church and online for the Lenten season. This year’s calendars are provided by The United Thank Offering and Episcopal Migration Ministries. Coloring pages are also available at the back of the church.
The Disciple’s Way: Daily Reflections for Lent
Copies of The Disciple’s Way are available this Lenten season. Please see Fr. Ancona or contact the Parish Office. This book of daily meditations guides the reader through the seven steps of discipleship: turn, follow, learn, pray, serve, worship and share.
