Call to Worship Dorrit White
Through the storms of life, O God,
You are with your people
In the person of Jesus your Son.
Calm our fears and strengthen our faith
That we may never doubt his presence among us
But proclaim the steadfast work of your kin-dom
Arise in our hearts as you in Christ have been resurrected
To live out of your abiding, encouraging, everlasting peace oh Lord.
Hymn “Here I Am, Lord” UMH 593
I, the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my people cry.
All who dwell in dark and sin, my hand will save.
I, who made the stars of night, I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them? Whom shall I send?
Chorus:
Here am I, Lord. Is it I, Lord? I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord, if you lead me. I will hold your people in my heart.
I, the Lord of snow and rain, I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them. They turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone Give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my words to them. Whom shall I send? Chorus
I, the Lord of wind and flame, I will send the poor and lame.
I will set a feast for them. My hand will save.
Finest bread I will provide, ‘til their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them. Whom shall I send? Chorus

Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever, Amen.
