Do not forsake the work of your hands.(Psalm Musical Reflection: All to Jesus I Surrender (SURRENDER) by Winfield S. WeedenReflection Notes: This tune was originally intended to have two-part harmonies on the verse and four-part harmonies of the refrain; the additional harmonic fullness adds to the repeated emphasis of the words “I surrender all.” Prayer:Almighty God, who has given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to thee and has promised that when two or three are gathered together in thy name thou will grant their requests: Fulfill now, O Lord, the desires and petitions of thy humble servants, as may be most expedient for them, granting us in this world knowledge of thy truth, and in the world to come, life everlasting. Amen. -John Chrysostom
