The Song of Moses and Miriam ✠ Exodus 15.1–17 ✠ Canticles

I will sing to the Lord, who has triumphed gloriously,
the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.

The Lord is my strength and my song
and has become my salvation.

This is my God whom I will praise,
the God of my forebears whom I will exalt.

The Lord is a warrior,
the Lord is his name.

Your right hand, O Lord, is glorious in power:
your right hand, O Lord, shatters the enemy.

At the blast of your nostrils, the sea covered them;
they sank as lead in the mighty waters.

In your unfailing love, O Lord,
you lead the people whom you have redeemed.

And by your invincible strength
you will guide them to your holy dwelling.

You will bring them in and plant them, O Lord,
in the sanctuary which your hands have established.

Exodus 15.1b–3, 6, 10, 13, 17

Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and shall be for ever. Amen.
