WANTED

Snippet

If you truly believe in the value of life, you care about all of the 
weakest and most vulnerable members of society. 
Joni Eareckson Tada
Scripture

So God created humankind in his image,in the image of God he 
created them; male and female he created them. 
Genesis 1:27 NRSV
Song
Dara Maclean - Wanted

From the day you were born
And took your first breath
You opened your eyes and in came the light
He was watching you
But all of your life you couldn't shake the lies in your head
Saying you're a mistake
Oh but you were made
By a God who knows your name
He doesn't make mistakes
[CHORUS:]
You are wanted
To every broken heart, He stands with open arms
You are wanted
To every searching soul, look to the rising sun
If you're lonely, hurting, gone too far
To the outcast you come as you are
For you, you are wanted, you, you are wanted
You, you are wanted, you, you are wanted
Let this be the day that joy takes the place
Of all of the years that shame tried to steal away
He is calling you
Lift your eyes to see His face
Come run into the arms of grace
[CHORUS]
You, you have been marked
You're set apart
And He calls you His
So you don't have to search
Don't have to look for where you belong
You are wanted
[CHORUS]
Sentence Prayer
Your love, O Lord, reaches to the heavens; your faithfulness 
stretches to the sky.  Lift us by the power of your Holy Spirit to 
participate in your goodness and bear witness to your loving-
kindness in every move we make today.  Amen

(Common Prayer A liturgy for ordinary Radicals Page 330)
