Morning Office

In the name of the Father

And of the Son

And of the Holy Spirit.

We stand in the first light of the day of the Lord.

How awesome is this place!

This is none other than the house of God,

This is the gate of heaven.

My house will be called a house of prayer.

One thing I have asked of the Lord

And this is what I seek

That I may dwell in the house of the Lord

All the days of my life

To behold the beauty of the Lord

And to seek him in his temple.

How lovely is your dwelling-place, O Lord Almighty!

My soul yearns, even faints for the courts of the Lord.

Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere;

I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God

Than dwell in the tents of the wicked.

I love the house where you live, O Lord,

The place where your glory dwells.

Lord, where else would we be?

Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ,

King of endless glory.

Reading & Prayers

Lord, be in this house and in our waking.

Lord, be in this house and in our working.

Lord, be in this house and in our welcoming.

This day and every day.

May we know your presence in our worship,

May we know your power in our witness,

May we know your peace in our words.

This day and every day.

Lord, be in the face of all we meet

Lord, be in the heart of all we love

Lord, be in the life of all we bless.

This day and every day.

May the peace of the Lord Christ go with you

Wherever He may send you,

May He guide you through the wilderness,

Protect you through the storm,

May He bring you home rejoicing

At the wonders He has shown you,

May He bring you home rejoicing

Once again into our doors.

In the name of the Father

And of the Son

And of the Holy Spirit.

Amen

Celebrating Joy's 80th Birthday!
