Leader: Give thanks for the Lord’s goodness, God’s love is steadfast and forever.

People: God has gathered us from the east and from the west, from the north and from the south, and rescued us from trouble.

Leader: When you wandered as if in the desert, hungry and thirsty for God,

People: God heard our cries and revived our fainting souls, leading us home.

Leader: Give thanks for God’s steadfast love, for the wonderful things God has done and is doing for us.

People: God’s grace satisfies the hunger in our hearts, and fills us with compassion, hope, and peace. We will praise God’s name always! AMEN
