Leader: There we rejoiced in God, Who rules by God's might forever,  
  O God, you are my God, for you I long;
 
for you my soul is thirsting.
 
My body pines for you
 
like a dry, weary land without water.
 
So I gaze on you in the sanctuary
 
to see your strength and your glory.
 
 
For your love is better than life,
 
my lips will speak your praise.
 
So I will bless you all my life,
 
in your name I will lift up my hands.
 
My soul shall be filled as with a banquet,
 
my mouth shall praise you with joy.
 
 
On my bed I remember you.
 
On you I muse through the night
 
for you have been my help;
 
in the shadow of your wings I rejoice.
 
My soul clings to you;
 
your right hand holds me fast.

====Acts 2:42-47====

=We Hear God's Word=
The first Christians devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. Awe came upon everyone, because many wonders and signs were being done by the apostles. All who believed were together and had all things in common; they would sell their possessions and goods and distribute the proceeds to all, as any had need. Day by day, as they spent much time together in the temple, they broke bread at home and ate their food with glad and generous hearts, praising God and having the goodwill of all the people. And day by day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved.
