Call to Worship
(inspired
by Psalm 63: 1-5)
You, God, are our God,
earnestly we seek you;
we thirst for you,
we long for you with our whole selves.
We are like drought-cracked earth
desperately hoping for rain.
We have seen you in this place, with these people,
seen your power and your glory.
Your love is better than life,
and so we glorify you;
as long as we live, we praise you;
with our voices and our bodies, we praise you.
You fill and fulfill us here at this table,
and so we sing our thanks and praise to you. Amen.
