Numbers 6
24 The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
25 The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
26 The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Worship Suggestion:
The sound file is looped.
1. Before the song begins, make remarks about the benediction of the worship experience which serves as a very important part of the service. It is an opportunity to thank God for the chance to be together one more time. It is also a chance to say a blessing over one another as we leave the worship experience, to go about our daily lives, until we meet again. The scripture is one of the most quoted benedictions in the Christian tradition. It is a good thing to speak a blessing over one another in love, joy and peace.
2. As the song plays the first time Read Numbers 6:24-26 and Psalm 121. Let the song end.
3. As song plays the second time, sing the song together. (Repeat 3x’s)
4. Prayer and Meditation.
May the Grace of Christ Our Savior
May the grace of Christ our Savior,
And the Father's boundless love
With the Holy Spirit's favor,
Rest upon us from above.
Thus may we abide in union
With each other and the Lord
And posses, in sweet communion,
Joys which earth cannot afford.
Amen.
