Kyrie
First Kings
Word of God; Word of life
Thanks be to God.
Psalm 34
I will bless the Lord at all times; the praise of God shall ever be in my mouth.
I will glory in the Lord;
let the lowly hear and rejoice.
Proclaim with me the greatness of the Lord; let us exalt God’s name together.
I sought the Lord, who answered me
and delivered me from all my terrors.
Look upon the Lord and be radiant, and let not your faces be ashamed.
I called in my affliction, and the Lord heard me
and saved me from all my troubles.
The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear the Lord and delivers them.
Taste and see that the Lord is good;
happy are they who take refuge in God!
John 6
First Kings
Psalm 34
John
Were there words or phrases that touched you?
Word of God; Word of Life.
Thanks be to God.

The Lord be with you. And also with you.
Lift up your hearts.
We lift them to the Lord.
Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It is right to give our thanks and praise.
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us from the time of trial
and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours,
now and forever. Amen.
