Prelude

Welcome

Responsive Reading
Leader: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy Name.
People: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
Leader: He forgives all your sins and heals all your infirmities;
People: He redeems your life from the grave and crowns you with mercy and
loving-kindness;
Leader: He satisfies you with good things, and your youth is renewed like an eagle's.
People: The Lord executes righteousness and judgment for all who are oppressed.
Leader: He made his ways known to Moses and his works to the children of Israel.
People: The Lord is full of compassion and mercy, slow to anger and of great kindness.
He will not always accuse us, nor will he keep his anger for ever.
Leader: He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our
wickedness.
People: For as the heavens are high above the earth, so is his mercy great upon those who
fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our sins from us.
ALL: As a father cares for his children, so does the Lord care for those who fear him.
