Right relating in reverent worship

Heavenly Father,

We have gathered to worship You in the name of Jesus, by the leading of Your Holy Spirit. You are holy and majestic, and we seek to worship You in the beauty of Your holiness. We are dirty sinners that You have mercifully saved. We have nothing for You that you did not give us. Nothing in our hands we bring, simply to Christ’s cross we cling. You made our ears to hear Your Word, our vocal chords to sing Your praise, our minds to understand what we are doing and the One we worship, our souls to fellowship and thank our Creator. You have done great things for us, as we just read, and we are glad. Your mercy endures forever. Help us relate rightly to You, with proper reverence and glad thanksgiving. We come to you through Your Son Jesus Christ, by the power of Your Holy Spirit who lives and reign with You, one God without beginning or end. Amen.
