Lord in your mercy…hear our prayer.
(Livestream Resumes) Let’s join in the Lord’s Prayer, saying,
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be
done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our
trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
forever and ever. Amen.
The Peace of Christ be with you. And also with you. Thanks be to God!

WORDS TO SONGS
Reprinted with permission under ONE LICENSE #705893-A.
O Holy Spirit, Root of Life
O Holy Spirit, root of life,
creator, cleanser of all things,
anoint our wounds; awaken us
with lustrous movement of your wings.
Eternal Vigor, saving One,
you free us by your living Word,
becoming flesh to wear our pain,
and all creation is restored.
O Holy Wisdom, soaring power,
encompass us with wings unfurled,
and carry us, encircling all,
above, below and through the world.

Jesus Walked this Lonesome Valley
Jesus walked this lonesome valley.
He had to walk it by Himself;
O, nobody else could walk it for Him,
He had to walk it by Himself.
We must walk this lonesome valley,
We have to walk it by ourselves;
O, nobody else can walk it for us,
We have to walk it by ourselves.
You must go and stand your trial,
You have to stand it by yourself,
O, nobody else can stand it for you,
You have to stand it by yourself
