Opening Prayer
Most merciful Father, we humbly thank you for all your gifts to us; for life and health and safety, for strength to work and leisure to rest and play, for all that is beautiful in creation and human life; but above all we thank you for Jesus—who is our Savior and Friend, Brother, Teacher, and Lord—Jesus, you are the hope we share.
Give us an awareness of your mercies toward us so with truly thankful hearts we may worship you well and, in your honor, feast and remember. Amen.

Goodness of God

And all my days, I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head

All my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able

All my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God

Scripture
1:11 May you be made strong with all the strength that comes from his glorious power, so that you may have all endurance and patience, joyfully 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has enabled you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the light.
1:13 He has rescued us from the power of darkness and transferred us into the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. 15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation, 16 for in him all things in heaven and on earth were created, things visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or powers--all things have been created through him and for him.
1:17He himself is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
1:18He is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that he might come to have first place in everything.
1:19For in him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell,
1:20and through him God was pleased to reconcile to himself all things, whether on earth or in heaven, by making peace through the blood of his cross.
