Let us Pray
We say the Collect together:
Creator of the universe, you made the world in beauty, and restore all things in glory through the victory of Jesus Christ. We pray that, wherever your image is still disfigured by poverty, sickness, selfishness, war and greed, the new creation in Jesus Christ may appear in justice, love, and peace, to the glory of your name.
Amen.

Hymn 139 Praise the Lord, you heavens, adore Him

The heavens tell out the glory of God,
the vault of heaven reveals God’s handiwork.
One day speaks to another,
night with night shares its knowledge.
