Prayer of Invocation
(inspired by Psalm 8)
Lord
God,
words
are not enough to express Your awesomeness,
Your
majesty, Your holiness.
Our
highest expressions of theology are but baby talk next to You:
Your
creation, Your very self.
Make
us aware, through Your Holy Spirit,
that
You are here among us.
May
this awareness lead us to approach this hour more carefully.
The
words we speak, the tunes we sing,
the
thoughts we think, the joy and sadness we feel,
may
these be pleasing to You.
For
in spite of the inadequacy of our words,
this
worship is addressed to You.
Make
it complete, whole, full to overflowing,
O
God, our rock, and our redeemer.
In
Christ we pray. Amen.
