Call to Worship Litany
(inspired by Psalm 97:1)
The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad
Let the distant shores rejoice
Let the distant shores rejoice
By your word all things were created
each in it's allotted space and time.
You breathed life through your Spirit
and in the whisper of the wind we are reminded
of your Spirit's continual presence.
