Call to Worship from Isaiah 53:1-6 [PLEASE STAND] Ms Iris Sin

Leader Who has believed our message and to whom has the arm of the LORD been

revealed?

People He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him, nothing in his

appearance that we should desire him.

Leader He was despised and rejected by mankind, a man of suffering, and familiar

with pain.

People Like one from whom people hide their faces he was despised, and we

held him in low esteem.

Leader Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering.

People Yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.

Leader But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities;

People The punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds

we are healed.

ALL We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own

way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all. Amen.
