Call to Worship

 

Be still, for the presence of the Lord, the Holy One is here.

Come bow before him now, with reverence and fear.

In him no sin is found, we stand on holy ground.

Be still, for the presence of the Lord, the Holy One is here.

 

God, in this time of worship,hear our prayers.

Hear us as we stand in the midst of so much wrongdoing in our world.

Hear us as we stand in the midst of so much confusion and fear in our world.

Hear us as we stand in the midst of so much pain in our world.

And help us hear you amid the cacophony of sounds that surround and distract us.

 

Be still, for the glory of the Lord, is shining all around;

He burns with holy fire, with splendour he is crowned.

How awesome is the sight, our radiant King of light!

Be still, for the glory of the Lord is shining all around.

O God, in this time of worship

 

Help us focus on what is truly important - living faithful lives,

and being of service to you and to all your people.

May this time apart strengthen us to resist evil and to embrace justice.

May this time with you focus our awareness

that Christ lives in each one of us. Amen.

 

Be still, for the power of the Lord is moving in this place;

He comes to cleanse and heal, to minister his grace.

No work too hard for him, in faith receive from him.

Be still, for the power of the Lord is moving in this place.

Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.

For the Kingdom, the power and the glory are yours.

Now and forever.  Amen.
