Almighty God
Shaper of stone
Master of wood and nails
Builder of humanity
Come create within us
A sacred space worthy
Of worship to you
A temple not made with human hands
Take the hidden Word
You have placed in our hearts
And through your Spirit shape our common life
That we who come into your presence
May truly eat bread not derived from temptation stones
But from the nail pierced hands of the Word made flesh
Come Holy Spirit, unite our hearts in fellowship and love
that the doors of our hearts may welcome all who come
In search of refuge and forgiveness.
