O God, come to our assistance.

O Lord, make haste to help us.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit,

now and forever. Amen. Alleluia.

Hymn

The gate is opened for the shepherd,
the sheep listen to his voice,
for he calls them one by one,
out of the fold he leads them.

The shepherd carefully guides them,
his sheep all follow him,
his voice is familiar to them,
they gather round when he calls them.

My sheep are astray and wander,
like sheep without a shepherd,
over mountains and hills,
with no one to seek or care for them.

My flock has become a prey,
its pasture has been trampled,
its water has been muddied,
hired hands have come instead.

Jesus says to the crowd he gathers:
“Truly I am the good shepherd,
I have come to take up my flock,
and all who listen to my voice.

I lay down my life for my sheep,
so weak, and suffering, and lost.
Gathered in one fold together,
they will be the flock of one shepherd.”
