Welcoming | My Peace (As we return to our seats.) | Rev. Bruce Myers |
One: In the beginning, darkness covered the deep, and God said: Let there be light. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: Through the words of the prophet, the Lord said: When you pass through the waters, I will be with you. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: Do not fear, says the Lord; I am with you. I have called you by name; you are mine. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: When Jesus was baptized by John, suddenly the heavens were opened. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: And as Jesus was coming out of the water, the Spirit of God rested on him like a dove. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: And a voice said: You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased. ALL: THE VOICE OF THE LORD IS OVER THE WATERS! One: Let us pray |
