Psalm of the day: Psalm 126

1 A Song of Ascents. When Yahweh brought back those who returned to Zion, we were like those who dream.

2 Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing. Then they said among the nations, “Yahweh has done great things for them.”

3 Yahweh has done great things for us, and we are glad.

4 Restore our fortunes again, Yahweh, like the streams in the Negev.

5 Those who sow in tears will reap in joy.

6 He who goes out weeping, carrying seed for sowing, will certainly come again with joy, carrying his sheaves.

Prayer of the day: Act of Contrition

O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended thee,
and I detest all my sins because of thy just punishments,
but most of all because they offend thee, my God,
who art all good and deserving of all my love.
I firmly resolve, with the help of thy grace,
to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin.
Amen.
