CALL TO WORSHIP (PSALM 115:1-4, 8-11, 18c)
Leader: Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
Together: Why do the nations say, “Where is their God?” Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
Leader: But their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands. Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
Together: All you Israelites, trust in the Lord – he is their help and shield. House of Aaron, trust in the Lord – he is their help and shield. You who fear him, trust in the Lord – he is their help and shield. Praise the Lord.
