opening litany based on Psalm 46
Pastor: It is God who is our refuge and strength and our ever-present help in times of trouble, therefore we will not live in fear. For even though the earth may give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, even if the waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging, we will not fear. Our God is with us, our refuge and strength is ever-present with us.
Congregation: In Revelation there is a river whose streams bring life and joy to the city of God, the holy dwelling place of the Most High. God is within this Holy City, this dwelling place of God with us, and she will not fall.
Pastor: God brings help to us at the break of each new day and though nations may be in uproar and kingdoms may fall God is still with us and ruler of all.
Congregation: The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Come one and all and see what the LORD has done in our lives and in the lives of all the people of the earth.
Pastor: The Lord brings wars to an end. The Lord breaks the bow and shatters the spear destroying all the instruments of war, and then says, “Be still, and know that I am God.”
Congregation: We will exalt the Lord our God among all the nations of the earth, for the LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our strength.
Pastor: Welcome to Worship at Christ Our Savior Lutheran Church.
Congregation: Where we are Inspired by God’s Love to Praise, Nurture and Serve and where we live out this calling when we Gather to Grow through God’s Grace.
