Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer: Dead Sea Scrolls
I THANK THEE, O LORD, BECAUSE THOU HAS BOUND ME IN THE BUNDLE
OF LIFE. I THANK THEE, O LORD, BECAUSE THOU HAST SAVED ME FROM THE PIT.
I THANK THEE, O LORD, BECAUSE THOU HAST GLADDENED ME WITH THY COVENANT.
I THANK THEE, O LORD, BECAUSE THOU HAST SET THINE EYE UPON ME.
