Praise the Lord… for his loving kindness is great toward us. The Lord’s faithfulness endures forever. 

Ps 127 1-2 NHEB

Gracious God,
Our Lord and King,
Our praise and worship,
To You we bring.
Lead us safely,
through this day,
To love and serve You,
Each in our own special way.

To play our part,
In your Kingdom plan,
To share the joy of Jesus,
God made man,
To grow in faith,
To stand tall and upright,
United in love,
Responsive to your light.

To see the needs,
Of those far and near,
To respond with love,
To disarm fear,
To spread the news,
Of the hope and promise,
Of the love of God,
And his son Jesus.

Gracious God, thank You for this new day.  Thank you that we can see your love all around us in your wonderful creation and in the love and kindness of others. Help us to appreciate and give thanks for all You have given us.

We pray that your Holy Spirit would  help us to grow together in faith, hope and love. Help us to nurture our planet and to reflect the love and kindness of Jesus in our world today.  Amen
