OPENING SONG: “Spirit Song” #347

WELCOME & ANNOUNCEMENTS

OPENING PRAYER:

We desire our worship to be from pure hearts. We desire your name to be made great that all the earth would know you. We desire our songs and words to praise you with all that we have to give. None of this can be done in our own strength. Our worship, our songs, our words are about you and for you. Guide us as we worship. Amen.
