Creator God I come before you
And seek your peace
Let me be still in your presence
The Holy One who is here
Song “Come thou Fount”
As I come before your throne
Bow down before you
May my prayers rise up to you
And your blessings rain down upon me
We say 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 know who need our help and prayers ….and the many others we carry in our hearts.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers ….and the many others we carry in our hearts…for sustainable action on climate change, for people crossing in small boats, for Sudan, the Ukraine, Russia, Yemen, Syria, Palestine, Myanmar, the Rohingyas, the Uighurs, for Hong Kong, for China, Belarus, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Iran, Afghanistan, for our own country, for those with Covid, for doctors and nurses, carers, for those on strike, for refugees and the homeless and those hungry, and tormented.
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 “Sunday”
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.
