Glory to God
Open us, Lord, to holy communion that we might be your people today,
that we might be your people today.
Singing for joy we gather to worship, eager to find the strength that we need.
Bind us together, bring transformation, make us like Jesus in word and deed,
make us like Jesus in word and deed.
Welcome we give to every one present, contours of Christ we see in each face.
Let us receive, Lord, all that You offer, sweeten our souls with mercy and grace,
sweeten our souls with mercy and grace.
Grateful today for all You provide us, friends for the journey, food for the day.
Fill us just now with peace and contentment that we might gladly walk in the Way,
that we might gladly walk in the Way.
Looking to Jesus, rabbi, redeemer, he with courage, then died alone.
Raised from the dead, he now lives among us. Our great commission: making him known,
great commission: making him known.
Living with hope, we scatter to serve God, loving our neighbor, sharing the Word.
Spirit of Gladness, hear this confession: Praise for our Savior, Jesus the Lord,
Praise for our Savior, Jesus the Lord.
