Song of Preparation | O Jesus, I Have Promised | |
Leader: All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God; yet God is merciful as well as just, quick to hear and to forgive. Let us then boldly confess our sins before God: ALL: God of righteousness, nothing we have done deserves your mercy. We cannot gain your love, because you already love us. But our love wavers and disappears, like the morning dew. Teach us to believe in your promise, so that we do not go astray and look to our own efforts to provide us salvation. For these and every way we sin against you, we ask your forgiveness. |

For thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen. |
