In the spirit of the Gospels, the mission of Trinity Church Wall Street is to build generations of faithful leadership,
      to build up neighborhoods, and to build financial capacity for holy service in New York City and around
                                 the world. Our mission is grounded in our core values.

                                                      Vision
       We seek to serve and heal the world by building neighborhoods that live gospel truths, generations of
                                      faithful leaders, and sustainable communities.

                     Core Values guide us in carrying out our mission and realizing our vision.
 By their nature, core values are touchstones for prayer, discernment, ongoing conversation, and action. We seek
   a deep understanding and ongoing engagement with Trinity’s Core Values. Over the years, we will continue
reflecting on what our Core Values mean in their application; how they challenge and inform decisions and actions
          in Trinity’s ministries, and how they help our ministries be aligned with our mission and vision.

                                                     The Epiphany
Christmastide concludes—and a new liturgical season begins—with the Epiphany, which is one of the seven
principal feasts of the Episcopal Church and is celebrated on January 6 each year. The day commemorates
the epiphany, or manifestation, of God among us in human form. Traditionally, it also denotes the arrival of
the Magi (also known as the Three Kings or the Wise Men) in Bethlehem to pay homage to the newly-born
Christ child with gifts.
Traditional Anglican Evensong (sung Evening Prayer) consists of the distinctive parts of the ancient services
of Vespers and Compline—including the Magnificat, the canticle appointed for Vespers, and the Nunc dimittis
appointed for Compline.

Choral Prelude
    We Three Kings                           Three Kings of Orient, John Henry Hopkins, Jr. (1820-1891)
    We three kings of Orient are,
    bearing gifts we traverse afar,
    field and fountain, moor and mountain,
    following yonder star.
    Refrain:
    O star of wonder, star of night,
    star with royal beauty bright;
    westward leading, still proceeding,
    guide us to thy perfect light!

    Born a King on Bethlehem’s plain,
    gold I bring to crown him again,
    King for ever, ceasing never
    over us all to reign.
    Refrain

    Frankincense to offer have I:
    incense owns a Deity nigh;
    prayer and praising, gladly raising,
    worship him, God Most High.
    Refrain

    Myrrh is mine; its bitter perfume
    breathes a life of gathering gloom;
    sorrowing, sighing, bleeding, dying,
    sealed in the stone-cold tomb.
    Refrain

    Glorious now behold him arise,
    King and God and Sacrifice;
    heaven sings alleluia:
    alleluia the earth replies.
    Refrain

Choir               Give the King your justice, O God, *
                         and your righteousness to the King’s Son;
                    That he may rule your people righteously *
                         and the poor with justice;
                    That the mountains may bring prosperity to the people, *
                         and the little hills bring righteousness.
                    He shall defend the needy among the people; *
                         he shall rescue the poor and crush the oppressor.
                    He shall live as long as the sun and moon endure, *
                         from one generation to another.
                    He shall come down like rain upon the mown field, *
                         like showers that water the earth.
                    In his time shall the righteous flourish; *
                         there shall be abundance of peace till the moon shall be no more.
                    The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall pay tribute, *
                         and the kings of Arabia and Saba offer gifts.
                    All kings shall bow down before him, *
                         and all the nations do him service.
                    For he shall deliver the poor who cries out in distress, *
                         and the oppressed who has no helper.
                    He shall have pity on the lowly and poor; *
                         he shall preserve the lives of the needy.
                    He shall redeem their lives from oppression and violence, *
                         and dear shall their blood be in his sight.
                    Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: *
                        as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.

Reader             A Reading from the Book of Isaiah.
                   Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For
                   darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon
                   you, and his glory will appear over you. Nations shall come to your light, and kings to the
                   brightness of your dawn.
                   Lift up your eyes and look around; they all gather together, they come to you; your sons shall
                   come from far away, and your daughters shall be carried on their nurses’ arms. Then you
                   shall see and be radiant; your heart shall thrill and rejoice, because the abundance of the sea
                   shall be brought to you, the wealth of the nations shall come to you. A multitude of camels
                   shall cover you, the young camels of Midian and Ephah; all those from Sheba shall come.
                   They shall bring gold and frankincense, and shall proclaim the praise of the Lord.
                   Hear what the Spirit is saying to God’s people.
People             Thanks be to God.

The Song of Mary                                  Magnificat in C Minor               George Dyson (1883-1964)
Please stand as you are able.

Choir              My soul doth magnify the Lord,
                       and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour.
                   For he hath regarded
                       the lowliness of his handmaiden.
                   For behold from henceforth
                       all generations shall call me blessed.
                   For he that is mighty hath magnified me,
                       and holy is his Name.
                   And his mercy is on them that fear him
                       throughout all generations.
                   He hath shewed strength with his arm;
                       he hath scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.
                   He hath put down the mighty from their seat,
                       and hath exalted the humble and meek.
                   He hath filled the hungry with good things,
                       and the rich he hath sent empty away.
                   He remembering his mercy hath holpen his servant Israel,
                       as he promised to our forefathers,
                       Abraham and his seed forever.
                   Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost;
                       as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be:
                       world without end. Amen.

Please be seated.

Reader              A Reading from the Gospel according to Matthew.
                    In the time of King Herod, after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, wise men from the
                    East came to Jerusalem, asking, “Where is the child who has been born king of the Jews?
                    For we observed his star at its rising, and have come to pay him homage.” When King Herod
                    heard this, he was frightened, and all Jerusalem with him; and calling together all the chief
                    priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Messiah was to be born.
                    They told him, “In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it has been written by the prophet:
                      ‘And you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
                    		     are by no means least among the rulers of Judah;
                      for from you shall come a ruler
                    		     who is to shepherd my people Israel.’ ”
                    Then Herod secretly called for the wise men and learned from them the exact time when
                    the star had appeared. Then he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, “Go and search diligently
                    for the child; and when you have found him, bring me word so that I may also go and pay
                    him homage.” When they had heard the king, they set out; and there, ahead of them, went
                    the star that they had seen at its rising, until it stopped over the place where the child was.
                    When they saw that the star had stopped, they were overwhelmed with joy. On entering the
                    house, they saw the child with Mary his mother; and they knelt down and paid him homage.
                    Then, opening their treasure chests, they offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh.
                    And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they left for their own country
                    by another road.
                    Hear what the Spirit is saying to God’s people.
People              Thanks be to God.

Choir               Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace,

     I believe in God, the Father almighty,
All		     maker of heaven and earth;
     And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord;
          who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,
          born of the Virgin Mary,
          suffered under Pontius Pilate,
          was crucified, dead, and buried.
          He descended into hell.
          The third day he rose again from the dead.
          He ascended into heaven,
          and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father almighty.
          From thence he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
     I believe in the Holy Ghost,
          the holy catholic Church,
          the communion of saints,
          the forgiveness of sins,
          the resurrection of the body,
          and the life everlasting. Amen.

   We have seen his star in the East and have come to worship him.
   Arise, shine, for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee.
   O Morning Star, how fair and bright,
       We have seen his star in the East,
   Thou beamest forth in truth and light,
   O Sovereign meek and lowly!
       And are come to worship him.
   Thou root of Jesse, David’s Son,
      We have seen his star in the East,
   My Lord and Savior, thou hast won
   my heart to serve Thee solely!
      We have seen his star in the East and are come to worship him.
   Thou art holy, fair and glorious,
   all victorious, rich in blessing,
   Rule and might o’er all possessing.
   We have seen his star in the East and are come to worship him.

All                Almighty God, Father of all mercies,
                   we thine unworthy servants
                   do give thee most humble and hearty thanks
                   for all thy goodness and loving-kindness
                   to us and to all men.
                   We bless thee for our creation, preservation,
                   and all the blessings of this life;
                   but above all for thine inestimable love
                   in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ,
                   for the means of grace, and for the hope of glory.
                   And, we beseech thee,
                   give us that due sense of all thy mercies,
                   that our hearts may be unfeignedly thankful;
                   and that we show forth thy praise,
                   not only with our lips, but in our lives,
                   by giving up our selves to thy service,
                   and by walking before thee
                   in holiness and righteousness all our days;
                   through Jesus Christ our Lord,
                   to whom, with thee and the Holy Ghost,
                   be all honor and glory, world without end. Amen.

Officiant          Almighty God, who hast given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common
                   supplication unto thee, and hast promised through thy well-beloved Son that when two
                   or three are gathered together in his Name thou wilt be in the midst of them: Fulfill now,
                   O Lord, the desires and petitions of thy servants as may be best for us; granting us in this
                   world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come life everlasting.
All                Amen.
