1. Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God of hosts;
the whole earth is full of his glory.
Holy God, we ask your forgiveness for the things we do
that disfigure the beauty of the earth
and mar your image in us.
For war and the desire to dominate others,
(Pause)

2. Holy God,
forgive and heal us.
For careless exploitation of natural resources,
(Pause)
For selfish greed, which blinds us to the needs of others,

3. Holy God,
forgive and heal us.
For times when we have shut you out,
unwilling to receive your gift of love,
(Pause)
Hear the words of God’s heavenly messenger,
‘Now your guilt is gone, your sin is blotted out.’
Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God of hosts;
the whole earth is full of his glory.
Make us holy, ready to hear and do your will.
Amen.
