“Storm in the Rocky Mountains, Mt. Rosalie”, (1866), Albert Bierstadt

Psalm 98 The victory of our God

1 O sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things. His right hand and his holy arm have gotten him victory. 2 The LORD has made known his victory; he has revealed his vindication in the sight of the nations. 3 He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness to the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God. 4 Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises. 5 Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, with the lyre and the sound of melody. 6 With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the King, the LORD. 7 Let the sea roar and all that fills it, the world and those who live in it.8 Let the floods clap their hands; let the hills sing together for joy 9 at the presence of the LORD, for he is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness and the peoples with equity.

above is reflected in the earth below.

Voice 1 Give us this day our daily bread

Voice 2 and reverence for every living being.

Voice 1 Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us

Voice 2 Forgive us our failings in love,  and free us from all  falseness,

others for the things done wrong to us.

Voice 1 and Lead us not into temptation,

Voice 2 that the light of our souls may shine 

Voice 3        Guide us away from the things that tempt us to stray from your good road

Voice 1      but deliver us from evil

Voice 2      and the strength of our spirits endure for earth and all its people

Voice 3 and set us free from the evil one and his worthless ways.

Voice 1 For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours forever

Voice 2 this day, tonight,  and forever.  

Voice 1        Amen!

Voice 2   Yes, I commit! 

Voice 3   Aho! May it be so!

Matthew 6: 9-13 , (from "Celtic Benediction," by John Phillip Newell) First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament.

Almighty God,  you hold all the powers of the universe within your hands, and we are your children.

Turn us to the splendor of life in you, transforming us through Jesus Christ our Savior, and strengthening us in every good deed and word. Amen.
