Here’s a closing commission and benediction which
uses Psalm 124 as its refrain. It was
written by Bruce Prewer.
Benediction
(inspired by Psalm 124)
Go
in peace to enjoy and employ your gift of faith.
Our
help is in the name of God who made heaven and earth.
Fear
neither outward foe nor inner temptation.
Our
help is in the name of God who made heaven and earth
Rejoice
in your blessings and smile in your adversities.
Our
help is in the name of God who made heaven and earth.
The inexhaustible grace of Christ crucified,
the tireless, eternal love of God,
and the live-in Guest who fills
household of faith with many gifts,
will be with you this day and for evermore.
Amen!
