Prelude: “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”
(arr. J. Schroeder)
Hymn: “O Worship The King”
A Prayer for God’s Presence
O God of peace, we turn aside from an unquiet world, seeking rest for our spirits and light for our thoughts. We bring our work to be sanctified, our wounds to be healed, our sins to be forgiven, our hopes to be renewed and our better selves to be quickened.
O Thou, in whom there is harmony, draw us to thyself and silence the discords of our sometimes troubled lives. Thou who art one in all, and in whom all are one, take us out of the loneliness of self, and fill us with the fullness of thy truth and love.
Thou whose greatness is beyond our highest praise, lift us above our common littleness and our daily imperfections. Send us visions of the love that is in Thee and of the good that is in us. Through Jesus Christ our Lord we pray. Amen.
(Adapted from St. Augustine)

Selected verses from Psalm 90
1 Lord, you have been our dwelling place in all generations.
2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
3 You turn us back to dust, and say, “Turn back, you mortals.”
4 For a thousand years in your sight are like yesterday when it is past, or like a watch in the night.
5 You sweep them away; they are like a dream, like grass that is renewed in the morning;
6 in the morning it flourishes and is renewed; in the evening it fades and withers.
10 The days of our life are seventy years, or perhaps eighty, if we are strong;
12 So teach us to count our days that we may gain a wise heart.
14 Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, so that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
17 Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and prosper for us the work of our hands— O prosper the work of our hands!
