A PRAYER FOR THE 25th SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST

A PRAYER FOR THE 25th SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST

Psalm 98

4 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;

    break forth into joyous song and sing praises.

5 Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,

    with the lyre and the sound of melody.

6 With trumpets and the sound of the horn

    make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord.

7 Let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

    the world and those who live in it.

8 Let the floods clap their hands;

    let the hills sing together for joy

9 at the presence of the Lord, for he is coming

    to judge the earth.

He will judge the world with righteousness

Do you hear it, Lord

That's us

Your creation

singing to you

Every wave that breaks upon the shore

Every wind that howls thru the trees

Every drop of rain that beats upon the earth

all are singing

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

CREATOR OF ALL

Every beast of the field 

Every creature in the sea

Every bird aloft

Lift their voice 

Lions roaring

Cattle stampeding

Whales singing

Eagles soaring

join the chorus

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

CREATOR OF ALL

Every mountain and forest

Every river and stream

Every field of wheat and corn

raise their anthem

Summits pointing heavenward 

Rapids bursting and bubbling

Waves of Amber, stalks growing

harmonize with all

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

CREATOR OF ALL

Every person

Every nation

Every community

chant your name

Seeking calm in the chaos

Seeking shelters from the storm

Seeking peace amidst the wars

cry unto you

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

WHO GIVES US LIFE 

SUSTAINS OUR LIFE

RESTORES OUR LIFE

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

WHO METES OUT JUSTICE

BENDS THE BOW

AND ESTABLISHES PEACE

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

WHO HEARS EVERY CRY

WHO COMFORTS EVERY HURT

WHO HEALS EVERY WOUND

PRAISE TO GOD

OUR GOD

NOW 

AND EVERMORE

AMEN
