Call to Worship

One:   Open our hearts, that we may see!
Many: May we see our siblings the way God sees them.
One:    Open our hearts, that we may hear!
Many: May we hear the cries of our siblings the way God hears them.
One:    Open our hearts, that we may understand!
Many: May we accept others who are different than us, the way God accepts us.
One:    Open our hearts, that we may listen!
Many: May we listen to others, for we know God listens to us.
One:    Come, let us worship the God who breaks open the Word!
Many: May our hearts be broken open to the Gospel.

Parting Hymn

Blest Be the Tie That Binds

Though we are set apart,
our times of gath’ring lost.
Our voices still we raise to God,
Who makes community.

Blest be the tie that binds
our hearts in Christian love.
The fellowship of kindred minds
is like to that above.
