II. Selections
Psalm 136:25
...who gives food to all flesh,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
Exodus 12:11
This is how you shall eat [ the lamb]: your loins girded, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it hurriedly. It is the passover of the Lord.
Isaiah 51:11
So the ransomed of the LORD shall return,
and come to Zion with singing;
everlasting joy shall be upon their heads;
they shall obtain joy and gladness,
and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
Luke 24:15-16
While [ two followers of Jesus] were talking and discussing, Jesus himself came near and went with them, but their eyes were kept from recognizing him.
III. Meditation: Make us ready, staff in hand
In steadfast love, you feed all flesh;
but help us recognize your presence.
When you approach, make us ready-
loins girded, sandals on, staff in hand.
Your ransomed, we come back home,
songs of everlasting joy and gladness.
You make sighs and sorrow flee away
(but help us know when you are near).
