Call to Worship

Leader:

The earth is the Lord’s and all that is in it,
The world, and those who live in it;
 

All:

For he has founded it on the seas,
And established it on the rivers.
 

Leader:

Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
And who shall stand in his holy place?
 

All:

Those who have clean hands and pure hearts,
Who do not lift up their souls to what is false,
And do not swear deceitfully.
—Psalm 24:1–4 NRSVUE
 

Leader:

Let us worship our holy God with reverence and awe!
