Call to Worship
(inspired by Isaiah
35: 1-10)
Too
long have we walked this dry desert wilderness searching for salvation.
We've
drunk the cup of sorrow,
burned
our feet upon the sands of misery,
and
watched as our children were devoured by jackals, lions, and beasts.
"Be
Strong! Do not fear! Here is our God! God will come and save you!"
Today, we walk in the Holy Way, the highway of the wise!
Today, we walk in the Holy Way, the highway of the wise!
Where
the lame leap as deer!
Where
grateful blind eyes see colors!
And the speechless sing out to our merciful Lord!
And the speechless sing out to our merciful Lord!
Blessed
be the Lord our God!
Praise
the Lord, O Zion!
