    CALLTO WORSHIP from Psalm

    One: O sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth!Many: Sing to the Lord, bless his name;

    tell of his salvation from day to day.One: Declare his glory among the nations,

    his marvelous works among all the peoples!Many: For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;

    he is to be feared above all gods.

    One: For all the gods of the people are worthless idols,but the Lord made the heavens.Many: Splendor and majesty are before him;

    strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.All: Worship the Lord in the splendor of holiness;

    tremble before him, all the earth!

    PRAYEROF CONFESSION

    Leader: Merciful God, you pardon all who truly repent and turn to you. We humblyconfess our sins and ask your mercy. We have not loved you with a pure heart,norhave we loved our neighbor as ourselves. We have not done justice, loved kindness, walked humbly with you, our God. Have mercy on us, O God, in your loving-

    kindness. In your great compassion,cleanse us from our sin.People: Create in us a clean heart, O God,and renew a right spirit within us.Do not cast us from your presence, or take your Holy Spirit from us. Restoreto us the joy of your salvation and sustain us with your bountiful Spirit througJesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

    As the brethren used to gather in the name of Christ to sup,then with thanks to God the Father break the bread and bless the cup,Alleluya! Alleluya! So knit thou our friendship up.

    All our meals and all our living make as sacraments of thee,That by caring, helping, giving, we may true disciples be.Alleluya! Alleluya! We will serve thee faithfully.
