Opening
Prayer / Call to Worship
(inspired
by Psalm 1)
King of all the
earth,
Creator of the
universe,
Holy Triune God,
From everlasting to
everlasting, you are Lord.
Your law brings life,
O Lord, and we meditate on it day and night;
Happy are we when we walk in your ways,
O Lord.
You are a rich stream
of living waters, and we would immerse ourselves in you;
Happy are we when we walk in your ways,
O Lord.
You bring forth fruit
in due season and establish the work of our hands;
Happy are we when we walk in your ways,
O Lord.
Who is like our God,
the One whose ways are full of life?
Happy are we when we walk in your ways,
O Lord.
This is our God, the
Holy One.
Come before him with
thanksgiving
and offer him the
sacrifice of praise.
