For the Acceptance of Prayer

Heavenly Father, you have promised to hear what we ask in the Name of your Son: Accept and fulfill our petitions, we pray, not as we ask in our ignorance, nor as we deserve in our sinfulness, but as you know and love us in your Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Psalm 47

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of the Sons of Korah.

O clap your hands together, all you peoples; O cry aloud unto God with shouts of joy.

For the Lord Most High is to be feared; he is the great King over all the earth.

He shall subdue the peoples under us, and the nations under our feet.

He shall choose our inheritance for us, the pride of Jacob whom he loved.

God has gone up with a shout of triumph, the Lord with the sound of the trumpet.

O sing praises, sing praises unto our God; O sing praises, sing praises unto our King.

For God is the King of all the earth; think upon his mighty acts and praise him with a song.

God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.

The princes of the peoples are gathered with the people of the God of Abraham; for the mighty upon earth have become the servants of the Lord, and he is very highly exalted.
