For morning Light
I humbly thank you
And offer my praise to you
Open my heart and my mind
And give me your presence
In my life today
Song “In the beginning”
Loving God
Come into my confused and troubled life
And send your Spirit
To work in me
To realign me
So that I may know
You in my life
Your joy, your peace, your Shalom
We say the Lord’s Prayer in our own language
Reading Psalm 44
God, we have heard with our ears,
Our ancestors have told us
The work that You did in their days,
In the days of old.
2 You with Your own hand drove out the nations;
Then You planted them;
You afflicted the peoples,
Then You let them go free.
3 For by their own sword they did not possess the land,
And their own arm did not save them,
But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence,
For You favoured them.
We pray for all those we know who need our help and prayers who we carry in our hearts today: for those fleeing fires or flooding Palestine and Israel, Sudan, Yemen, Hong Kong, China, Syria, Thailand, our own country, for those confronting injustice, and pressing issues of climate change, for those who are hungry, distraught, for the many refugees throughout the world, for those on strike, for the homeless, our families and friends and ourselves…Spirit of the Living God present with us now enter our bodies, minds and spirits and heal us of all that harms us. Let your angels be beside us at this time. In Jesus Name we pray.
This is the day that God has made
I will rejoice and be glad in it
I will not offer to God
Offerings that cost me nothing
I will go in Peace
To love and serve the Lord
Für Morgenlicht
Ich danke Ihnen demütig
Und lobe dich von meinem Lob
Öffne mein Herz und meinen Geist
