Creator God I come before you
And seek your peace
Let me be still in your presence
The Holy One who is here
Song “Sunday”
As I come before your throne
Bow down before you
May my prayers rise up to you
And your blessings rain down upon me
The Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Psalm 29
The voice of the Lord divides flames of fire.
8 The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness;
The Lord shakes the wilderness of Kadesh.
9 The voice of the Lord makes the deer give birth
And strips the forests bare;
And in His temple everything says, “Glory!”
We pray for all those we carry in our hearts.
For Israel, Palestine, Columbia, India, Brazil, Russia, Ukraine, Yemen, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uyghurs, Hong Kong, Nigeria, Belarus, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Syria, Iran, the US, our own country, climate change, doctors and nurses, carers, teachers, those confronting injustice, our families and friends and ourselves…Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter our bodies, minds and spirits and heal us of all that harms us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.
Song “Come thou Fount”
Put fire in our hearts
And sends us your Spirit
To renew our hopes and dreams
To remind us that a new way is always possible
In life, in death and beyond death
God is with us.
In Jesus Name we pray
Amen.
