Enter In Morn­ing Prayer

Come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joy­ful noise to the rock of our sal­va­tion! Let us come into his pres­ence with thanks­giv­ing; let us make a joy­ful noise to him with songs of praise!

For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the moun­tains are his also. The sea is his, for he made it, and the dry land, which his hands have formed.

O come, let us wor­ship and bow down, let us kneel before the Lord, our Mak­er! For he is our God, and we are the peo­ple of his pas­ture, and the sheep of his hand.

O that today you would lis­ten to his voice! Do not hard­en your hearts, as at Merib­ah, as on the day at Mas­sah in the wilder­ness, when your ances­tors test­ed me, and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.

For forty years I loathed that gen­er­a­tion and said, “They are a peo­ple whose hearts go astray, and they do not regard my ways.” There­fore in my anger I swore, “They shall not enter my rest.” Psalm 95:1–11
