OUR
APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit “In This Quiet Moment” L. Mayfield
Welcome!
Call to Worship: Psalm 122:1; 125:2
I was glad when I heard them say:
LET US GO TO THE HOUSE OF THE LORD!
As the mountains surround Jerusalem,
SO THE LORD SURROUNDS HIS PEOPLE!
FROM THIS TIME ON AND FOREVER MORE!
*Hymn “America the Beautiful”
Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer: Psalm 119:132,133
WITH OPEN MOUTH I PANT BECAUSE I LONG FOR YOUR COMMANDMENTS. TURN TO ME AND
BE GRACIOUS TO ME; AS IS YOUR CUSTOM TOWARD THOSE WHO LOVE YOUR NAME. KEEP YOUR
STEPS STEADY ACCORDING TO YOUR PROMISE, AND NEVER LET INIQUITY HAVE DOMINION
OVER ME!
Kyrie
(sung)
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
CHRIST, HAVE MERCY ON US.
LORD, HAVE MERCY ON US.
