Opening litany, based on Psalm 82


Pastor: Our Lord God presides over all creation, even over our hidden gods, our treasures and possessions. Then our Lord God asks the question: "How long will you defend the unjust and show partiality to the wicked?
Congregation: As the children of God we are called to defend the cause of the weak and broken families, to maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. We are called to rescue the weak and needy and deliver them from the hand of the wicked who would take advantage of them.

Pastor: Those who seem to be the movers and shakers who control the money and bend the politicians in reality know nothing, they understand nothing.
Congregation: They walk about in spiritual darkness; all their foundations in this world are shaken.

Pastor: The world says to them, 'You are "gods"; but you are not “gods” but rather sons of the Most High and in the end will die like mere men; fall like every other ruler.
Congregation: Rise up, O God, judge the earth, for all the nations, all the nations are your inheritance.
