Call to Worship
[For two voices or a leader and congregation]
Let us give praise to the Lord our God,
Who alone does wondrous things.
Praise be to his glorious name forever!

has ascended into heaven,
“the first fruits of those who have died.”
—1 Corinthians 15:20
May the whole earth be filled with his glory!
