“A Psalm of Repentance: TURN AROUND!”
Psalm 6
Offering (We give our gifts to God) I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.—Philippians 4:11-13 *Doxology ‘Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;
Call to Worship (from Psalm 6)
praise Him, all creatures here below;
Leader: My soul is in anguish. How long, O Lord, how long? Turn, O Lord, and deliver us.
praise him above ye heavenly host; praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.”
