Sing of the Lord’s goodness (CH4)
Prayer
God,
thanks for your smile
you push out from inside us;
thanks for the tears
you share with us sometimes;
thanks for your songs
just waiting to be discovered in us;
thanks for your joy
coiled like a spring in our souls;
thanks for our names
you whisper every night;
thanks for the imagination
that finds you painting everywhere;
thanks for the puddle
that reflect the size of the sky;
thanks for the leaves
that save up sunsets;
thanks for your people
whose lives tell your story;
thanks for your story
that shapes the lives of your people;
thanks for your love
that shapes a space for us;
thanks for your grace
that hold everything in balance;
thanks for your word
that always speaks to us;
thanks,
thanks for being God.
Small Shout: Lord’s Prayer in different versions
Maker in heaven,
reveal who you are.
Set the world right;
do what’s best - as above, so below.
Keep us alive with three square meals.
Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others.
Keep us safe from ourselves and what is evil.
You’re in charge!
You can do anything you want!
You’re ablaze with beauty!
Yes. Yes. Yes.
(Eugene Peterson, The Message)

may each breath you take expand with grace;
may God hold your hand when you aren’t looking,
and squeeze.
