Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord! O Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive    to the voice of my pleas for mercy! If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,    O Lord, who could stand? But with you there is forgiveness,    that you may be feared.

Psalm 130:1-4

[unitedadoration]

Hark! the glad sound! The Savior comes! The Savior promised long! Let ev’ry heart prepare a throne, and ev’ry voice a song. On him the Spirit largely poured exerts its sacred fire, wisdom and might, and zeal and love, his holy breast inspire.

Hark, the Glad Sounds, a hymn by Phillip Doddridge (1735)

O Lord, our heavenly Father, keep your household the Church continually in your true religion, that we who trust in the hope of your heavenly grace may always be defended by your mighty power; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy SPirit, now and for ever. Amen.

Almighty and everliving God, we humbly pray that, as your only-begotten Son was this day presented in the temple in the substance of our flesh, so we may be presented to you with pure and clean hearts by Jesus Christ our Lord; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

To collaborate with integrity requires trust. Trust requires a meaningful relationship. It’s better to start with relationships and let collaboration emerge naturally than to start with an assignment and hope that relationships happen incidentally.
