Call to Prayer: Psalm 138
All earth’s citizens shall praise you,
when they hear the wisdom of your words.
They shall sing of your ways, O God,
sing that your glory is great.
For though you are high, you care for the lowly,
and humble the proud and pretentious.
And even though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve me;
You fulfill your purpose for me.
Your love, O God, is eternal.
And so I come in worship.
