O give thanks to our God who is good:
whose love endures for ever.
You sun and moon, you stars of the southern sky:
give to our God your thanks and praise.
Sunrise and sunset, night and day:
give to our God your thanks and praise.
All mountains and valleys, grassland and scree,
glacier, avalanche, mist and snow:
give to our God your thanks and praise.
Amen.
New Testament Reading - The bonds of peace
1I BEG YOU - I, a prisoner here in jail for serving the Lord - to live and act in a way worthy of those who have been chosen to such wonderful blessings as these. 2 Be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other, making allowance for each other's faults because of your love. 3 Try always to be led along together by the Holy Spirit, and so be at peace with one another.
4We are all parts of one body, we have the same Spirit, and we have all been called to the same glorious future. 5 For us there is only one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 and we all have the same God and Father who is over us all and in us all, and living through every part of us.
. . . . . Ephesians 4:1-6In the heavenly kingdom,
the blessèd have their dwelling place;
and their rest for ever and ever.
