                 done for you?”
People:  Lord, we know that you are our Master and
                 Teacher.

                 have washed your feet, you must likewise
                 wash the feet of others. 
People:  You have indeed set the pattern for us,
                 Lord.  What you have done, we must do. 
Leader:  If you know these things, do them!  Trust me
                 from the bottom of your heart.

                 you. 
Leader:  Listen for my voice in everything you do
                 and everywhere you go. 
People:  We assume we know it all, but only you will
