Hymn
74 O God, Our Help in Ages Past (stanzas 1, 2, & 3 only)

Responsive Reading (from Psalm 90)
Leader: Lord, you have been our refuge from one generation to another.
People: Before the mountains were brought forth, or the land and the earth were born, from
age to age you are God.
Leader: You turn us back to the dust and say, "Go back, O child of earth."
People: For a thousand years in your sight are like yesterday when it is past and like a watch
in the night. You sweep us away like a dream; we fade away suddenly like the grass.
Leader: In the morning it is green and flourishes; in the evening it is dried up and withered.
People: For we consume away in your displeasure; we are afraid because of your wrathful
indignation. Our iniquities you have set before you, and our secret sins in the light
of your countenance.

74 O God, Our Help in Ages Past (stanzas 4, 5, & 6 only)

Prayers of the People
You, O God, are our dwelling-place from generation to generation, our shield from anguish
and distress. You arm us as children of light with the hope of salvation, and you protect us by
your love. Give us grace to build up and encourage one another, as we seek wisdom and
abundant life in the strength of your Word and the assurance of your Spirit. Amen.
