Prayer
Let us pray
O God of grace and glory,
We give you thank for the rhythm of the seasons
and the constant provision for our needs in life.
We are grateful for the commitment of those who look after our quality of life,
through food production, health care and civic security.
We are aware of the injustices and ill division of wealth in our world,
and are mindful of the message of those who challenge our life style
and comfortable way of living.
We know we do not deserve the mercy and love You have shown to us all,
day by day, in countless ways.
May we treasure your Word and its message
and be more and more aware of our responsibility as disciples
in gratitude to You for Jesus Christ our Lord.
Let us say together …
Our Father, who art in heaven
hallowed be thy name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
and forgive us our debts
as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
forever.
Amen.
Hymn
Our final hymn is “Sing Aloud”, recorded from BBC Songs of Praise
Grace
We normally say the words of the Grace to each other. We say them now to whoever is with us, and to everyone we have thought about during this time of worship.
May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with us all, now and evermore. Amen.
Final music
