WE GATHER TO WORSHIP (From Psalm 71:1-6)
Come into this sacred space to worship God.
O LORD, in you I trust; never let be be shamed.
In your way of acting to put things right, 
 snatch me up and bring me to safety; 
turn your ear towards me, and save me.

Come into this sacred space to worship God.
Be to me a rock for dwelling in, 
a secure place for retreating to, time and time again;
a rock for my restoration, as you have appointed; 
for you are my rock and my stronghold.
O LORD, rescue me from the hand of the wicked,
and the hands of the unjust and the ruthless.

Come into this sacred space to worship God.
For you are my hope, O LORD God, my trust since my early years.
I have relied on you from the womb; 
from my birth you have sustained me.
In you is my praise again, and again, and again.

For use in worship, with acknowledgement. © Jeff Shrowder 2000, 2013.
