PRAISE Call to Worship from Psalm 103:11-18 [PLEASE STAND]

Leader For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his love for those who fear him;.

People as far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

Leader As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;

People for he knows how we are formed, he remembers that we are dust. Leader As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field; People the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no

more. Leader But from everlasting to everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear

him, and his righteousness with their children’s children— ALL with those who keep his covenant and remember to obey his precepts.

Amen.
