Minister: Lift up your hearts!
Congregation: We lift them up to the Lord!
God of the great creation,
God of the hazy, distant mountains,
God of the grass beneath our feet,
God of the water that all of us drink,
We worship You now in the name of Jesus.
God of salvation,
God of the Word,
God of the bread, Lord God of the wine,
Creator of goodness where hatred once was,
We worship You now in the name of the Lord.
God of all wisdom,
God of the Spirit,
God who sends forth the deep life of the Spirit,
God who is holy, everlastingly holy,
We worship You now in the power of Your Spirit.
We worship You now, and glorify You,
In the heavenly places, where You have brought us.
So glorify Your name in our town, state, and country,
As we glorified it in the heavenly courts,
Be worshiped: on earth as in heaven.
And so, gracious Father, we worship You now through Jesus Christ, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end, amen
