Confession

To you, O God, all hearts are open, to you all desires known. We come to you, confessing our sins. Forgive us in your mercy, and remember us in your love. Show us your ways; teach us your paths; and lead us in justice and truth, for the sake of your goodness in Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.

Words of Forgiveness

Song of Praise Glory in the Highest by Jonathan Rundman

Chorus:

Glory in the highest 

Glory be to God 

Glory in the highest 

and peace to all the earth 

Shaper of the universe 

Thanks and praise we sing 

Loving father, caring mother 

Hold us in your wings 

Jesus Christ the Lamb of God 

You wash our sins away 

At your table all are welcome 

Hear us as we pray 

Holy Spirit source of life 

Burning wild and free 

You are God the three in one 

Such a mystery

Message 

Song Praise to the Lord, the Almighty Text: Joachim Neander, tr. Catherine Winkworth; Music: Ernewerten Gesangbuch

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty, 

the King of creation!

O my soul, praise him, 

for he is your health and salvation!

Let all who hear now to 

his temple draw near,

joining in glad adoration!

Praise to the Lord, who o'er all things 

is wondrously reigning

and, as on wings of an eagle, 

uplifting, sustaining.

Have you not seen 

all that is needful has been

sent by his gracious ordaining?

Praise to the Lord! 

Oh, let all that is in me adore him!

All that has life and breath, 

come now with praises before him!

Let the amen sound 

from his people again.

Gladly forever adore him!

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
