Holy God,
Who calls us to our best selves
Without excuse we show up today in holy splendor
Crossing bridges in holy boldness
Loving our neighbors in holy trust
Caring for creation in holy awe
Submitting fully with holy bodies
Holy God,
We show up today in holy splendor
Not with airs of “holier than thou”
But a holy that comes only from You
A holy which is found in right relationship with You, the “othered” and all of creation
The holiness You call us to each day
On purpose and purposefully
Holy God,
We show up today in holy splendor
Loving
Living
Sharing
Fighting
Envisioning
Creating
Singing
Dancing
Transforming
Grateful for Your Holy Spirit
Amen
