The children of God stand in awe!
Opening Prayer
Almighty and merciful God, it is not your will that sinners should perish, but that their sins
should die: Restrain your anger which we deserve, and pour out upon us your mercy for which we ask, that through this we might pass from mourning to joy; Through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. Amen.

Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever.
