Be still my troubled soul.
Calm now my restless heart.
I have come to find peace,
In the house of my Lord.

Remember the Sabbath day,
By keeping it Holy.

For it’s the Lord my God,
Who created this day.
That I may joyfully,
Now praise his Holy name.

This is the day that the Lord has made.
Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

I will enter this space,
With reverence and with awe,
For the Lord God blesses,
Those who show him respect.

Whenever house you enter,
First say peace be to this house!

Together we will seek,
The oneness of our prayer,
That our Lord has promised,
In friendship as one voice.

So we, though many, are one body in Christ,
And individually, members one of another.

Seeking to do what’s right,
Before our Lord our God,
So that our words and prayers,
Shall edify His name.

Do you know that you are God’s temple?
And that God’s Spirit dwells in you?
