Lesson: Psalm 46, spoken responsively M: God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

C: Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,

M: though its waters roar and fo~m and the mountains quake with their surging.

C: There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the Most High dwells.

M: God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.

C: Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall; he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

M: The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.

C: Come and see the works of the LORD, the desolations he has brought on the earth.

M: He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear, he bums the shields with fire.

C: "Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."

M: The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.
