A Prayer about Our One True King

Mighty God, King over all the Earth:

We “clap [our] hands,” we shout to [you] with cries of joy,” (Psalm 47:1),

joining in the chorus of every nation and all peoples that bow down to you, 

proclaiming you to be,

“Awesome, the great King over all the earth” (Psalm 47:1-2).

Lift our eyes well above the happenings on this earth to see 

your kingdom come, your will being done. 

Make us a part of that kingdom coming, 

as we honor, worship and live out the mission of love you have given us. 

Help us to remember and act on the gospel truth:

“The kings of the earth belong to God; 

he is greatly exalted” (Psalm 47:9).

In the name of King Jesus we pray. Amen.
