Leader: 1 Oh, the joys of those who do not follow the advice of the wicked,
or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers.
ALL: 2 But they delight in the law of the Lord,
meditating on it day and night.
Leader: 3 They are like trees planted along the riverbank,
bearing fruit each season.
ALL: Their leaves never wither,
and they prosper in all they do.
Leader: 4 But not the wicked!
They are like worthless chaff, scattered by the wind.
5 They will be condemned at the time of judgment.
Sinners will have no place among the godly.
ALL: 6 For the Lord watches over the path of the godly,
but the path of the wicked leads to destruction.

1 May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2 May he send you help from the sanctuary
4 May he give you the desire of your heart
and make all your plans succeed,
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Lord has hidden his face from our sin. He has blotted out all of our iniquity. For Christ Jesus, the Perfect suffered for the imperfect, the sinless became sin for the sinner. We are forgiven and freed to live in a right relationship with God. He has created within us a clean heart and renewed a right spirit within us. God has restored our joy and given us a willing spirit to do all that he asks. Brothers and sisters, you are forgiven, indeed! Amen.

Leader: 6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;
ALL: 7 for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
Leader: Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 “Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,
as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness,
10 For forty years I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
ALL: 6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;
Leader: 7 for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
ALL: 1 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD!
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation!

Leader: 1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
ALL: 2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
Leader: 4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
ALL: 5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
Leader: 6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
ALL: 7 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Leader: 10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”
ALL: 11 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress!
