Hymn: “To God Be the Glory”                                                    pg. 98

L: From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly;

C: Before those who fear you I will fulfill my vows.

L: The poor will eat and be satisfied;

C: those who seek the Lord will praise him—may your hearts live forever!

Opening Prayer:                                                       Donna Hinch

Mighty God, in whom we know the power of redemption, you stand among us in the shadows of our time. As we move through every sorrow and trial of this life, uphold us with knowledge of the final morning when, in the glorious presence of your risen Son, we will share in his resurrection, redeemed and restored to the fullness of life and forever freed to be your people.  Amen.
