Call to Worship

     Come, let us gather for worship. 

From every corner and all the myriad paths we find ourselves on,

Let us gather now to praise the God who walks among us.                                                            

God of every season, guide our steps.

Come those from the West,

where sunsets mark the close of day, the transition into rest, 

and a letting go of all the good that could not be done.                                                                            

God of every season, guide our steps.

Come those from the North,

where stars point the way through uncertain paths,

darkness offers space for contemplation,                                                                   

God of every season, guide our steps.

Come those from the East,

where dawn’s rays surprise us,  the light of promise shines bright, 

and first steps feel alive with potential.                                                                                                            

God of every season, guide our steps.

Come those from the South,

where heat rises both around us and within, 

the day burns bright and true, and passion makes good work feel light.

God of every season, guide our steps.

From every corner, every path, and every season 

we come now to worship.  

God of every season, guide our steps.
