We gather to worship
the God who calls us to do justice.
God, here we are!
All glory belongs to you.
We gather to worship
the God who calls us to cherish kindness.
God, here we are!
From you all good things come.
We gather to worship
the God who calls us to journey humbly
side-by-side with Them.
God, here we are!
Give us all that we need
to follow where you guide us.
Opening Prayer
Great God of Justice and of Mercy,
You promised us that your yoke is easy
and your burden light —
not because the path you lead us down
is never hard,
but because you bear every burden with us.
In this precious time of worship,
open our hearts to comfort and challenge
so that we may be sustained and transformed
to bear good fruit
for your glory.
Amen.
