OUR HEARTS FOR WORSHIP
CALL
TO WORSHIP: (Responsively: Psalm 35:5-9)
Leader:
Your love, O Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness, to the skies.
Congregation:
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the great
deep.
Leader:
O Lord, you preserve both man and beast.
Congregation:
How Priceless is your unfailing love!
Leader:
Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of your wings.
Congregation:
They feast on the abundance of your house.
Leader:
You give them drink from your river of delights.
All:
For with you is the fountain of life, in your light we see light.
PRAYER OF CONFESSION: (Unison): Almighty God, we confess that we have sinned
against you in thought, word, and deed.
We have followed our own way and not sought after you. Have mercy upon us, we pray. Forgive our disobedience and ingratitude,
remove our pride and help us to follow you each day. Help us to live according to your law of love
that we might know the abundance of life to which we are called, and rejoice in
the grace by which we are saved. Through
Christ our Lord we pray. Amen
