Worship Prayers for May 3

St. Mark Presbyterian

PRAYER IN PREPARATION FOR WORSHIP:  Loving and Beloved God, in the resurrection of Christ you have overcome the powers of this world and shown your saving love for all people.  As Christ has loved us, may we remain in his love, growing in love for one another; through Christ your Incarnate Love, to whom with you and the Spirit, one holy God, be honor and praise now and forever.  Amen.

  

CALL TO WORSHIP

Leader:      Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised.

People:      God’s greatness is unsearchable.

Leader:      One generation shall laud your works to another,

People:      And shall declare your mighty acts.

All:             On the glorious splendor of your majesty, and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.

   PRAYER OF CONFESSION

Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word and deed.  We have not loved you with our whole heart and mind and strength; we have not loved our neighbors as ourselves.  In your mercy forgive what we have been, help us amend what we are, and direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and walk in your ways, to the glory of your only name.  Amen.
