Call To Worship (based on Revelation 1:8)
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.
Let all mortal flesh keep silence, and with fear and trembling stand.
Ponder nothing earthly minded, for with blessing in his hand
Christ our God to earth descendeth, our full homage to demand.
Rank on rank the host of heaven spreads its vanguard on the way,
as the Light of light descendeth from the realms of endless day,
that the pow'rs of hell may vanish as the darkness clears away.
