Nunc Dimittis Service in E - Herbert Murrill (1909-1952)

Collect Lord, we pray thee that thy grace may always prevent and follow us, and make us continually to be given to all good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Anthem Te lucis ante terminum, rerum Creator, poscimus, ut pro tua clementia, sis praesul et custodia. Procul recedant somnia, et noctium phantasmata: hostemque nostrum comprime, ne polluantur corpora. Praesta, Pater piissime, patrique compar unice, cum Spiritu Paraclito, regnans per omne saeculum. Amen. Before the ending of the day, Creator of the world, we pray, that with thy wonted favour thou wouldst be our guard and keeper now. From all ill dreams defend our eyes, from nightly fears and fantasies; tread under foot our ghostly foe, that no pollution we may know. O Father, that we ask be done, through Jesus Christ thine only Son, who, with the Holy Ghost and thee, doth live and reign eternally. Amen.

Cathedral Development Plans: We hope that major work will soon start on the Chapter House. In the first instance, this will involve renewing the underfloor heating, and then installing a new glazed porch so that we have better access, and can leave the great wooden doors open during the day. In due course we shall clean the beautiful medieval ceiling and renew the lighting. The Chapter is also considering what to do about the sculptures in the niches. Recent investigation has revealed that behind these are an important collection of medieval painting, which is currently obscured. The Chapter shall soon need to make a decision about this medieval painting, but want to hear what people think about the Chapter House and how this might best be presented as we move forward. We have a questionnaire online and, if you know the space, we would love you to participate in our consultation. The survey can be accessed online, by typing this web address into your browser: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/QGCTKBK There are also a limited number of copies available at the West End of the Cathedral for those without internet access. Please ask the Sidesmen for further details. Surveys can be returned to Alice Risdon at Number 1 the Cloisters.
