9 PRAYER OF TRANSFORMATION

10 * HYMN Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty! #138 in the Blue Hymnal

11 Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in three Persons, blessèd Trinity!

12 falling down before Thee, Who wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.
Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore Thee, Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea; Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee, Who wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

13 there is none beside Thee Perfect in power,
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee, Though the eye of sinfulness Thy glory may not see, Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee Perfect in power, in love, and purity.

14 merciful and mighty! God in three Persons,
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! All Thy works shall praise Thy Name, in earth, and sky, and sea; Holy, holy, holy! merciful and mighty! God in three Persons, blessèd Trinity!

15 we are people that are not worthy of carrying your
Prayer for Forgiveness (in unison) God of all creation, we have heard you calling and asking whom you will send, yet we make excuses and say that we are people that are not worthy of carrying your message of love to all.

16 We are afraid to say that we are here; send us
We are afraid to say that we are here; send us. We say that we have unclean lips even though we know that you have touched and blessed our lips. Your voice can shake buildings, break cedar trees, and strip forests bare.

17 We run away at the slightest rumbling of thunder not always realizing it is your voice calling out to us. Forgive us, oh God, for running the other direction when you call out to us and for not speaking up with the voice you gave to us.

18 Forgive us for hiding behind the walls of the church and not praising you in the sanctuary of creation that is filled with your splendor. In the name of your Son, Jesus, we pray. Amen.

19 A Time for Silence You may use this time for silent prayer, meditation, or simply to rest in the presence of God.

20 Assurance of Forgiveness

21 Glory be to the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

31 Thanksgiving for the Word

32 O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky:
O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high, O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky: We praise You for the radiance That from the hallowed page, A lantern to our footsteps, Shines on from age to age.

33 Scripture Reading— Isaiah 6:1-8 (Old Testament, Page 635 in pew Bible)

34 In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lofty; and the hem of his robe filled the temple.

35 Seraphs were in attendance above him; each had six wings: with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. And one called to another and said:

36 is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory.” The pivots on the thresholds shook at the voices of those who called, and the house filled with smoke.

37 And I said: “Woe is me! I am lost, for I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips; yet my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts!”

38 Then one of the seraphs flew to me, holding a live coal that had been taken from the altar with a pair of tongs. The seraph touched my mouth with it and said: “Now that this has touched your lips, your guilt has departed and your sin is blotted out.”

39 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I; send me!”
