Adapted from Psalm 25:4-5

 Show us your ways, O Lord. 

Teach us your paths 

Guide us in your truth, 

And teach us. 

For you are God, our Savior, 

And our hope is in you all day long.

Adapted from Proverbs 1:2-7

Leader:            For attaining wisdom and instruction,

                          for understanding words of insight,

People:          Let the wise listen and add to their learning,

                        and let the discerning get guidance

Leader:            for understanding proverbs and parables, the saying and riddles of the wise.

People:           The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,

                        but fools despise wisdom and discipline.

All:                  Let us worship God!

Adapted from Romans 12:2

Do not be conformed
To the pattern of this world,
But be transformed

By the renewing of your minds.

Then you will be able

To test and approve what God’s will is – his good, pleasing, and perfect will.

Risen Christ Jesus, help us to conform to your pattern of life.

In the midst of new dimensions, in the face of changing ways 

Who will lead your pilgrim people, wandering in their separate ways?

God of rainbow, fiery pillar, leading where the eagles soar.

We your people, ours the journey, now and evermore.

Adapted from Psalm 31:20-2131:21 Ps. 31:3 Ps. 31:3,5,19

Friends in Christ, let us gather in the shelter of God’s presence.

Let us bless the Lord, for God has wondrously shown us steadfast love.

God is indeed our rock and our refuge.

God guides us and leads us.

Into God’s hands we commit our spirits, for God has redeemed us.

Abundant is the goodness that the Lord has stored up for those who gather to worship God!
