Be present, Lord, among us, And bring us to believe We are ourselves accepted And meant to love and live. 2 Teach us, O Lord, your lessons, As in our daily life We struggle to be human And search for hope and faith. Teach us to care for people, For all, not just for some; To love them as we find them, Or, as they may become. 3 Let your acceptance change us, So that we may be moved In living situations To do the truth in love; To practice your acceptance, Until we know by heart The table of forgiveness And laughter's healing art. 4 Lord, for today's encounters With all who are in need, Who hunger for acceptance, For righteousness and bread, We need new eyes for seeing, New hands for holding on; Renew us with your Spirit; Lord, free us, make us one!

Thankful tribute gladly bringing, let us come before him now, and, with psalms his praises singing, joyful in his presence bow. 2 For how great a God, and glorious, is the LORD of whom we sing; over idol gods victorious, great is he, our God and King. In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way-- lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share."

The LORD our God builds up the church, finds those who draw apart; God binds their wounds and gently leads; he heals the broken heart. 2 Our Lord is great: he calls by name and counts the stars of night; God's wisdom is unsearchable, and wondrous is his might. The LORD upholds the poor and meek but brings the wicked low; sing praise to God who sends the rain, whose care the cattle know. 3 No human might, no earthly pride delights the LORD above; in those who fear him God delights, in those who trust his love. O Zion, praise the LORD your God, his wondrous love confess; God is your glory and your strength, he will your children bless.
