James Tissot, Get out of my sight, Satan, Brooklyn Museum, 1886-96

But turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things [Mark 8:33]."

__________________

Lord, for thy tender mercy’s sake is the most popular of works attribued to Richard Farrant .  It will be sung this coming Sunday at both Choral Eucharist and evensong.





Lord, for thy tender mercy’s sake lay not our sins to our charge, but forgive that is past, and give us grace to amend our sinful lives: to decline from sin and incline to virtue, that we may walk in a perfect heart before thee now and evermore. Amen.

The anthem Lord, for thy tender mercy's sake, often attributed to Richard Farrant, does not appear in any source under his name before the late 18th century and is now thought to be by the elder John Hilton. - Wikipedia
