Call to Worship (from Psalm 66)
Leader: Make a joyful noise to God, all the earth;
People: Sing the glory of his name; give to him glorious praise.
Leader: Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!
People: Because of your great power, your enemies cringe before you.
Leader: All the earth worships you;
People: They sing praises to you, sing praises to your name.”
Leader: Come and see what God has done:
People: He is awesome in his deeds among mortals.
Leader: He turned the sea into dry land;
People: They passed through the river on foot.
Leader: There we rejoiced in him, who rules by his might forever,
People: Whose eyes keep watch on the nations—
Leader: Let the rebellious not exalt themselves.
People: Bless our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard,
Leader: Who has kept us among the living,
People: And has not let our feet slip.
