Great and wonderful are your works, O God; majestic is your name.  Unto the ends of the earth you display your dominion; beyond the reaches of the heavens your glory shines.  Hear the praises we offer as we gather to worship; receive the confession we make through your mercy and grace.  As we open your Word, we discern your goodness.  Your way is holy, great God of all.
