1.
Send out your light and your truth that they may lead me. Bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling, that I may gaze upon the face of God.
2.
Beloved, rise and shine. The sun is yawning, stretching the horizon. Let it in, warm the skin. Shake off dust and covers, heavy burdens. Before you go about your day, take a moment now to pray. To the throne of heavenly grace, come with me. Wash your face, your hands, your feet. Soak in goodness, lather in his mercy. Hear his words; sit and steep. With a grateful heart, receive what he gives freely. And as you go about your day, know I am with you on the way. To the throne of heavenly grace, come with me.
3.
O Lord, open our lips and our mouth shall proclaim your praises. The Lord's name be praised! O God, make speed to save us. O Lord, make haste to help us. The Lord's name be praised. Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord. The Lord's name be praised. (repeat) Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was from the start, as it is now, and as it ever shall be. Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; as it was from the start, as it is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
4.
VERSE 1: O come, let us sing unto the Lord, unto the Lord. Let us now rejoice in him for our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving and show ourselves glad in him with psalms. REFRAIN: For the Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods. The Lord is a great God and a great King above all gods. VERSE 2: In his hand are all the depths of the earth, the heights of the hills also are his. All the seas and land are his for he has made them. Come, O come, and let us worship and fall down and kneel before, before the Lord our Maker. (refrain) BRIDGE: For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. O that you'd harken to him! (repeat)
5.
O be joyful in the Lord, all you lands; serve the Lord with gladness, and come before his presence with a song. Be assured, he is God; it is he who has made us, and not we ourselves. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture, the sheep of his pasture. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture, the sheep of his pasture. O go your way into his gates with thanksgiving, and unto his courts with praise; be thankful unto him, speak good of his Name with thanksgiving, and unto his courts with praise. For the Lord is gracious, and his mercy's everlasting, his mercy's everlasting. His truth endures for generations and his mercy's everlasting. Amen.
6.
VERSE 1 O Lord, show your mercy upon us, and grant us your salvation. O Lord, guide those who govern us, and lead us in the way of justice and truth. REFRAIN Let not the needy be forgotten, O Lord, or the hope of the poor be taken away. Create in us clean hearts, O God; and take not your Holy Spirit from us today. Take not your Holy Spirit from us today. VERSE 2 O Lord, clothe your ministers with righteousness; and let your people sing with joy. O Lord, save your people; bless your inheritance. Give peace in our time, O Lord, and defend us by your mighty power. (refrain)
7.
O Lord, our heavenly Father, almighty and everlasting God, you have brought us safely to the beginning of this day. Defend us by your mighty power, that we may not fall into sin nor run into any danger but run to you instead. And that guided by your Spirit, we may do what is righteous in your sight; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
