CONGREGATION AT PRAYER & DEVOTIONS
INVOCATION
INTROIT
The Lord is the strength of his people;
he is the saving refuge of his anointed. Save your people and bless your heritage! Be their shepherd and carry them forever. To you, O Lord, I call; my rock, be not deaf to me,
lest, if you be silent to me, I become like those who go down to the pit. Hear the voice of my pleas for mercy, when I cry to you for help, when I lift up my hands toward your most holy sanctuary. The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.

INVOCATION

We have thought on your steadfast love, O God,
in the midst of your temple.
As your name, O God, so your praise reaches to the ends of the earth.
Your right hand is filled with righteousness.
Great is the Lord and greatly to be praised
in the city of our God, his holy mountain.
Within her citadels
God has made himself known as a fortress.
Let Mount Zion be glad!
Let the daughters of Judah rejoice because of your judgments!
This is God, our God forever and ever.
He will guide us forever.
