30, 204, 26:01-13


response reading 30. Psalm 67.
May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon  us,
that your ways may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.
May the peoples praise you, O God;
may all the peoples praise you.
May the nations be glad and sing for joy,
for you rule the peoples justly and guide the nations of the earth.
May the peoples praise you, O God; may all the peoples praise you. Then the land will yield its harvest,
and God, our God, will bless us.
God will bless us,
and all the ends of the earth will fear him.


Hymnal 204
1 Those who hear and do the Word of the master ever, build a house on solid rock,
to be shaken never, when the rains, the floods appall, all the tempests' fury
Cannot shake it, standing tall, on the rock, securely.
Build we well, build to last, buidl our house together, on the Rock of Ages, fast, build to stand forever
2 Those who hear and do not do, In the words delighting, build a house on shifting sand,
Ruin swift inviting, when the rains, and floods appall, as the blows fall faster,
Built on sand, the house must fall. In comlete disaster,
Build we well, build to last, buidl our house together, on the Rock of Ages, fast, build to stand forever
3 No one lives but builds a house, hgih or low our station, builds on Christ the Rock, or else
Sand, without foundation, Christ will come and judge us each after our endeavor
Rock or sand, to fall or stand, stand or fall forever.
Build we well, build to last, buidl our house together, on the Rock of Ages, fast, build to stand forever


Leviticus 26:1-13
1 " 'Do not make idols or set up an image or a sacred stone for yourselves, and do not place a carved stone in your land to bow down before it. I am the LORD your God.
2 " 'Observe my Sabbaths and have reverence for my sanctuary. I am the LORD.
3 " 'If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey my commands,
4 I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees of the field their fruit.
5 Your threshing will continue until grape harvest and the grape harvest will continue until planting, and you will eat all the food you want and live in safety in your land.
6 " 'I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove savage beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country.
7 You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you.
8 Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.
9 " 'I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you.
10 You will still be eating last year's harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new.
11 I will put my dwelling place among you, and I will not abhor you.
12 I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people.
13 I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians; I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to walk with heads held high.


Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come, your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors,
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. amen.' "' "' "' "' "
