Here’s a call to worship based on Psalm 123, one of the suggested scripture readings for November 13, 2011 (Proper 28A, Ordinary 33A). It was written by Joan Stott, as part of her “Timeless Psalms” collection on the Geelong City Parish UCA website.
Call to Worship

Great and Glorious God, we gather to worship you.
We lift our eyes to you, in reverent awe before your majesty.
Great is the Lord our God, and greatly to be praised!
Generous and Merciful God, we come to worship you.
We lift our eyes to you, giving thanks for your compassion.
Gracious is the Lord our God, and greatly to be praised!
Welcoming and Empowering God, we worship you.
We lift our eyes to you, and we celebrate your faithfulness.
Holy is the Lord our God, and greatly to be praised!
We lift our eyes, seeking to worship and praise our God. Amen.
