Opening Song:

Teach Us Your Ways by Isaac Wardell, Leslie Jordan, Orlando Palmer, and Paul Zach

Lyrics:

Teach us Your ways teach us Your ways
As we learn from one another
Learn to love each other
Teach us Your ways

Teach us to give teach us to give

Give ourselves for one another
Learn to love each other
Teach us to give

Teach us to weep teach us to weep

Let us weep with one another
Learn to love each other
Teach us to weep

Hallelujah hallelujah

Let us learn from one another
Learn to love each other
Teach us Your ways

Passage:

9 For what thanksgiving can we return to God for you, for all the joy that we feel for your sake before our God, 10 as we pray most earnestly night and day that we may see you face to face and supply what is lacking in your faith?

11 Now may our God and Father himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you, 12 and may the Lord make you increase and abound in love for one another and for all, as we do for you, 13 so that he may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all his saints.

(1 Thessalonians 3:9–13 ESV)

Musical Reflection:

Harp Meditation No. 1 by Gretchen Kirby

Reflection Notes:

A repetitive pattern in the left hand provides a meditative foundation while the right hand experiments with ascending lines. The tune is meant to be joyful and evoke delight.

Prayer:

Incline, O Lord, thy merciful ears, and illuminate the darkness of our hearts by the light of thy visitation; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
-The Gelasian Sacramentary
