GENERAL WORSHIP AND PRAISE

Hymn (Second stanza)

Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness,
High on his heart he will bear it for thee,
Comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness,
Guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.

Leader: The hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth; for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
Assembly: God is a spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
Leader: The Lord is in his holy temple.

Responses

Leader: The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
Assembly: O Lord, open thou our lips, and our mouth shall show forth thy praise.
Leader: The Lord is in his holy temple.

Chant (All sing)

Let all the earth keep silence before him.
Seek ye the Lord while he may be found;
Call ye upon him while he is near.
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion:
Slow to anger, and of great mercy.
The Lord is in his holy temple.

Chant (All sing)
Let all the earth keep silence before him.

Responsive Reading (Psalm 96. Standing)

O sing unto the Lord a new song; sing unto the Lord, all the earth.
Sing unto the Lord, bless his name ; show forth his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all
the peoples.
For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised :
