Sunday 12th March, Second Sunday of Lent

Sunday 12th March, Second Sunday of Lent
Psalm 121

We thank you Lord that you are with us from before our birth and that you will be with us every step of the way until we see you. We thank you for the blessings we have already received and will receive. When our journey is difficult and we feel weary, we can trust that you are right there with us.

This is not always easy when we are sad, ill, mourning, stressed, in pain, lonely or when we are being tested. Lord, I pray that especially during this time of Lent we - as a community - will draw close to each other reminding each other of your love, faithfulness and protection of us as we journey together becoming more like you.

You can find the “servant song”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4UBYV8jbgU



Brother, let me be your servant.
Let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I might have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.

We are pilgrims on a journey.
We are brothers on the road.
We are here to help each other
Walk the mile and bear the load.

I will hold the Christ-light for you
In the night time of your fear.
I will hold my hand out to you;
Speak the peace you long to hear.
I will weep when you are weeping.
When you laugh, I'll laugh with you.
I will share your joy and sorrow
Till we've seen this journey through.

When we sing to God in heaven,
We shall find such harmony
Born of all we've known together
Of Christ's love and agony.

Sister, let me be your servant.
Let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I might have the grace
To let you be my servant, too.
