Text:

Psalm 51

Benediction:

May God protect you through your time of trial.

May the love of Christ,

seen in what he did,

and heard in what he said

fill you with joy and hope.

May the Holy Spirit advocate for you,

leading into all truth,

lighting the way of faith,

and strengthening you to follow Jesus,

So that you will become

like a strong, young tree,

growing deep and bearing

much fruit.

Amen.
