Offertory
Composer John Ness Beck
Lyrics Micah 6:6-8

With what shall I come before the Lord,
And bow myself before God on high?
Shall I come before Him with burnt offerings?
Shall I come before Him with yearling calves?

Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams,
With ten thousand rivers of oil?
Shall I give my first-born for my transgressions,
The fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?

He has shown you, O man,
He has shown you what is good
And what does the Lord require of you
But to do justly and to love mercy,
And to walk humbly with your God?
