The following is a Call To Worship I wrote for our town’s Baccalaureate Service – the formal faith gathering that optionally accompanies high school graduation ceremonies in an area.
CALL TO WORSHIP
Dan Wilt
Call: Many voices are speaking to us today in the movie theaters, on the concert stages, on the television.
Response: Today, Lord, we choose to listen to Your voice, to respond to Your desires, to follow Your highest path for us.
Call: Many voices are speaking to us today in our homes, in our friendships, and in our community.
Response: Today, Lord, we choose to listen to Your voice, to respond to Your desires, to follow Your highest path for us.
Call: Many voices are speaking to us today through celebrities, commercials and through media.
Response: Today, Lord, we choose to listen to Your voice, to respond to Your desires, to follow Your highest path for us.
All: As many voices ring in our ears, we say that we choose to listen for Your voice, to do what pleases you, and to stay true to the path You have lovingly set before us. Strengthen each of us to choose the high road, to live up to the greatness you placed within us, and to honor You in all our ways. Lord, we will listen for Your voice. Amen.
