Hymn
Let us be before our
God in silence.
Unison Prayer I (Psalm 36)
Your mercy, Lord,
spans the sky;
your faithfulness soars among the clouds.
Your integrity towers like a mountain;
your justice runs deeper than the sea.
Lord, you embrace all alike:
How we prize your tender mercy!
God, your people seek shelter,
safe in the warmth of your wings.
For you are the fount of life,
you give us light and we see.
Unison Prayer II (Psalm 5)
We pray to you, O
Lord,
and our prayer rises with the sun.
Hear our words, our groans, our cries for help.
At dawn we plead our case and wait.
You never welcome evil, God,
you never let it stay.
But by your great mercy we enter your house
and bend low in awe within your holy temple.
In the face of our struggles, clear the way,
bring us your justice.
Unison Prayer III
(Psalm 119: 105-108)
Your word, O Lord,
is a lamp for our steps,
a light for my path.
We have suffered so much,
give us the life you promise.
Receive, Lord,
all that we say
and teach us your wisdom.
Unison Prayer IV (Psalm 16)
Protect us, O God, we
turn to you for help.
We once put faith in false gods,
the idols of our land.
Now we make no offering to them
nor invoke their names.
For you, Lord, you measure out our portion,
the shape of our future;
the joy of our inheritance.
So our hearts rejoice,
our bodies fill with the joy of life:
our whole being rests secure.
Do not abandon us to Sheol.
Show us the road to life:
boundless joy at your side forever!
