Call to Worship
Let us go, in heart and mind, to see what has come to pass. Let us go with the shepherds: Let us go to find the Savior! Let us go with the wise ones: Let us go to find God’s promise, born for us! Let us go with the poor and humble: Let us go to find our King, born in a lowly manger. Let us go with all the world, with all the peoples of the nations. Come, let us worship; come, let us adore him: Christ the Lord!
