OUR APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude
Introit “Rise Up, O Sons of God”
Welcome
Call to Worship: Psalm 100
Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
WORSHIP THE LORD WITH GLADNESS! COME INTO GOD’S PRESENCE WITH SINGING!
Know that the Lord is God.
IT IS GOD WHO MADE US; WE ARE GOD’S.
We are God's people & the sheep of God's pasture.
ENTER GOD'S GATES WITH THANKSGIVING,
And God's courts with praise.
GIVE THANKS TO GOD, BLESS GOD'S NAME!
For the Lord is good;
GOD'S STEADFAST LOVE ENDURES FOREVER AND GOD'S FAITHFULNESS TO ALL GENERATIONS!
*Hymn 59 "I Sing the Mighty Power of God"
Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer: Isaiah 38:16-19
O LORD, BY THESE THINGS PEOPLE LIVE, AND IN THESE IS THE LIFE OF MY SPIRIT. RESTORE ME TO HEALTH AND MAKE ME LIVE. YOU HAVE HELD BACK MY LIFE FROM THE PIT OF DESTRUCTION. YOU HAVE CAST ALL MY SINS BEHIND YOUR BACK. FOR SHEOL CANNOT THANK YOU. DEATH CANNOT PRAISE YOU. THOSE WHO GO DOWN TO THE PIT CANNOT HOPE FOR YOUR FAITHFULNESS. THE LIVING, THEY THANK YOU; AS I DO THIS DAY; FATHERS MAKE KNOWN TO CHILDREN YOUR FAITHFULNESS.
KYRIE:
LORD HAVE MERCY UPON US. CHRIST HAVE MERCY UPON US. LORD HAVE MERCY UPON US.

HEAR O ISRAEL, THE LORD OUR GOD, THE LORD IS ONE! THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
