We put our hope in the Lord;
the Lord is our protector and our help, the root of our gladness and in the Lord we trust.
May your constant love be with us, Lord, as we put our hope in you.
Amen

Gracious God thank you for your love for us.
We ask that you continue to be in our brokenness and bleeding world.
Bind us as families, communities and nations.
Let us know that we are all your Children:
those who know you and those who do not.
In our diversities, let us know that we are each your creation.
Amen

God of truth uncovered, you trace the sparrow’s flight and plumb the secrets of the heart:
bring our fear and conflict into the light of your presence,
so that we may lose our hollow life and find our way to you;
through Jesus Christ, the master and the slave.
Amen

God Almighty, Father and Mother, Son and Spirit, you are the Word of life.
You are the Word of truth.
You are the Word of love.
You are the Word of hospitality.
You are the one above and beyond all else.
Yours is the Word to be heard and listened to.
Yours is the voice in eternity.
You are the Alpha and the Omega.
You are the beginning and the end.
You are.
You are our God.
Amen

O Lord, you are our God,
the God of Abraham, Isaac and Joseph;
the God of Moses and Psalmists; the God of Jonah and the Prophets;
the God of Disciples and Apostles; the God of Jews and Gentiles;
the God of the good, the bad and the ugly.
Oh Lord, you are our God, you are my God,
and your promises to us are immense – beyond our imagining, beyond what we deserve.
You are our God, and we adore you
for all you are and for all your ways and for all your love, this and every day.
Amen
