Contemporary Call to Worship
(based on James 1:17-27)
The world is hard
Our losses real
Our grief tangible
Our fear palpable
Our grief tangible
Our fear palpable
Merciful God, quiet our rush to judgment.
The world is heavy
Our anxiety clawing
Our confusion large
Our responsibility tenuous
Our confusion large
Our responsibility tenuous
Brooding God, slow our impulsive actions.
The world is mystery
Our faith rooting
Our hope kindling
Our love blossoming
Our hope kindling
Our love blossoming
Loving God, may we be quick in our understanding of your call.
