Lord, hear our prayer:

Almighty God, our heavenly Father, we praise you that you are almighty, all-knowing and all-loving. We praise you for your glory and for your sovereignty over your creation. We praise you with the words and thoughts that we have, but they can never do justice to all that you are. Our feeble attempts to worship you can never reach the heights of your majesty. Our finite minds can never unlock all that is contained in your infinite glory. Our kind words and good deeds and our devotion will never be the key to your love. Our service and commitment and obedience will never release us from all that holds us back or open the door of your kingdom. Yet despite all this, you love us with an unfailing love. Thank you gracious and merciful, Father.

Amen.
