your rest, your joy, your glory share.

serve to salve our conscience, to our secret shame:
Lord, reprove, inspire us by the way you give;
teach us, dying Savior, how true Christians live. Scripture: James 2:14-17 Languages: English Tune Title: KING'S WESTON

God of our planet, forestall and forgive!

birth from the burning,
water that blesses and air that is sweet,
health in God’s garden,
hope in God’s children,
regeneration that peace will complete.

God of all loving,
God of the seedling, the snow and the sun,
teach us, deflect us,
Christ reconnect us,
using us gently, and making us one. Scripture: Hosea 4:1-3 Languages: English Tune Title: TENDERNESS
