Teach us how to seek first Your kingdom righteousness, trusting that You will add to us everything we need. Place our hope confidence in our Great High Priest, who ever lives to make intercession for us. Private Confession Words of Assurance Pardon of Gospel You have turned for me mourning into dancing; You have loosed sackcloth clod me with gladness, that glory may sing Your prae not be silent. O LORD God, will give thanks to You forever! Psalm
