lyrics
We come as those open...
Open to God’s Spirit.
We come as those broken...
Aching for Love’s healing.
We come as those seeking...
Ready to be found again.
We come as those listening...
Present to Christ’s presence.
We come as those longing...
Longing for God’s Kingdom come.
My siblings,
our help is in the name of the eternal God,
who is making the heavens and the earth.
Dear God,
thank you for all that is good,
for our creation and for our humanity,
for the stewardship you have given us of this planet earth,
for the gifts of life and of one another,
for your love which is unbounded and eternal.
O thou, most holy and beloved,
my Companion, my Guide upon the way,
my bright evening star.
We repent the wrongs we have done:
Silence
We’ve wounded your love.
God of mercy, heal us.
We stumble in darkness.
Light of all transfigure us.
We wander from your heart.
Holy Spirit, dwell in us.
Eternal Spirit, living God,
in whom we live and move and have our being,
all that we are, have been,
and shall be is known to you,
to the very secret of our hearts
and all that rises to trouble us.
Living flame burn into us,
cleansing wind, blow through us,
fountain of water, well up within us,
that we may love and praise in deed and in truth.
Eternal Spirit, flow through our being
and open our lips,
that our mouths may proclaim your praise.
Let us worship the God of love.
Open to God’s Spirit.
We come as those broken...
Aching for Love’s healing.
We come as those seeking...
Ready to be found again.
We come as those listening...
Present to Christ’s presence.
We come as those longing...
Longing for God’s Kingdom come.
My siblings,
our help is in the name of the eternal God,
who is making the heavens and the earth.
Dear God,
thank you for all that is good,
for our creation and for our humanity,
for the stewardship you have given us of this planet earth,
for the gifts of life and of one another,
for your love which is unbounded and eternal.
O thou, most holy and beloved,
my Companion, my Guide upon the way,
my bright evening star.
We repent the wrongs we have done:
Silence
We’ve wounded your love.
God of mercy, heal us.
We stumble in darkness.
Light of all transfigure us.

Holy Spirit, dwell in us.
