For a Drowning Person by Raymond A. Foss

A word of challenge
rising from the pastor,
if our worship was for someone
a life preserver for a drowning person

In the scripture, in the message
in the songs upon our lips
a reflection of our savior
the power of his life

A message of hope,
truth in the power of his name
a way out of the wilderness
the love of God to share

New life in the one who came
to set the captives free
the hope of all, from then as now
the one who will come again

I served as Liturgist
Call to Worship:
Let us praise God, the creator of heaven and Earth.
Let us seek God with open minds and open hearts.
May we feel the Holy spirit among us.
As the Scriptures are read and the Word proclaimed,
as prayers and music are offered, may we receive with
joy and thanksgiving what is offered for us.
Unison Prayer:
Almighty God, to you all hearts are open, all
desires known, and from you no secrets are
hidden. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the
inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may love
you with our whole self, and worthily praise your
holy name. Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Luke 7:17-22
Prayer of Dedication:
Loving God, the giver of all that is good; our lives
are blessed daily by your gifts. Help us to receive
your gifts with such gratitude, that we will be giving,
as you are to us. We pray that through us the whole
world will know the gift of your generous love in
Jesus Christ, the one who gave his life for us, and for
the whole world.
Acts 3:1-8
and sermon, “Worship That is Life Changing”
