Hymn #660
God Is Here
Gathering Litany
God, who rules the universe, calls us;
Christ, who took up his cross, calls us;
Holy Spirit, who frees us body and soul, calls us.
Let us faithfully answer
by worshiping the triune God.
As prophets catch fire,
as disciples draw flame,
as apostles walk in the Spirit,
O Holy One, Holy Three,
fill us with fervent desire
to enter your kingdom.
Lead us by the cross of Christ
to live in the love of Christ,
now and forever. Amen.
