Precious Savior, Dear Redeemer arr. Jason Tonioli
Welcome and Announcements
Call to Worship
based on themes from Psalm 139
One: We’ve come to worship God,
Many: who loved us before we were yet born,
One: who knows us even better than we know ourselves,
Many: whose presence never leaves us, and whose love for us never ceases.
One: This is our God.
Many: Let’s worship together! **
