PRAYER

Craigville Colloquy Wednesday, July 13, 2011

The community gathers in silence. The congregations responses are in bold face.

O Lord, open my lips. And my mouth shall proclaim your praise. Glory to the holy and undivided Trinity, one God: as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be forever. Amen.

Rejoicing with Mary and all the saints, let us entrust ourselves, and one another, and all our lives to you, O Christ: To you, O Christ our God. O compassionate God, hear our prayers, answer them according to your will, and make us channels of your infinite grace; through Jesus Christ we pray. Amen. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen. HYMN 90

Laudate omnes gentes, Taiz

Rising in Darkness

May the peace of God, which is far beyond human understanding, keep our hearts and minds safe in Christ Jesus. Amen. Let us bless the Lord. Thanks be to God.

This service is based on the orders for Morning Prayer in The New Century Hymnal, the Book of Common Worship Daily Prayer, and Praise God: Common Prayer at Taiz. The translation of the psalm is from Evangelical Lutheran Worship. Leader: Andy Lang Musician: Dave Debick

Laudate omnes gentes, * laudate Dominum. Laudate omnes gentes, * laudate Dominum!

Praise all peoples: praise the Lord.!

PSALM You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High, * who abide in the shadow of the Almighty

from Psalm 91

[Unison]

With long life will I satisfy them, * and show them my salvation.
Silence for reflection.

you will say to the LORD, * My refuge and my stronghold, my God in whom I put my trust. For God will rescue you from the snare of the hunter * and from the deadly plague. Gods wings will cover you, and you will find refuge beneath them; * Gods faithfulness will be your shield and defense. You shall not fear any terror in the night, * nor the arrow that flies by day; Nor the plague that stalks in the darkness, * nor the sickness that lays waste at noon. A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, * but it will not come near you. Because you have made the LORD your refuge, * and the Most High your habitation, no evil will befall you, * nor shall affliction come near your dwelling. For God will give the angels charge over you, * to guard you in all your ways. Upon their hands they will bear you up, * lest you strike your foot against a stone. You will tread upon the lion and the viper; * you will trample down the lion and the serpent. I will deliver those who cling to me; * I will uphold them, because they know my name. They will call me, and I will answer them; * I will be with them in trouble; I will rescue and honor them.

O God, to know you is to live, to serve you is to reign. Defend us from every enemy, that, trusting in your protective care, we may have no fear; through the power of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. READING
