LYONS
Michael Buffington
Eternal God, in every age you have raised up disciples to live and die in faith. We confess that we are indifferent to your will. You call us to proclaim your name, but we are silent. You call us to do what is just, but we remain idle. You call us to live faithfully, but we are afraid. In your mercy, forgive us. Give us courage to follow in your way. Joined with those from ages past, who have served you with faith, hope, and love, may we inherit the kingdom you promised in Jesus Christ.

INTROIT Blest Are They BLEST ARE THEY
The congregation sings refrain as indicated.
Blest are they, the poor in spirit; theirs is the kingdom of God. Blest are they, full of sorrow; they shall be consoled. Refrain
Blest are they, the lowly ones; they shall inherit the earth. Blest are they who hunger and thirst; they shall have their fill. Refrain
Blest are they who show mercy; mercy shall be theirs. Blest are they, the pure of heart; they shall see God. Refrain
Blest are they who seek peace; they are the children of God. Blest are they who suffer in faith; the glory of God is theirs. Refrain
Blest are you who suffer hate, all because of me. Rejoice, be glad; yours is the kingdom; shine for all to see. Refrain
O Worship the King, All Glorious Above!
