let us worship and bow down;
Worship and bowing down indicate a posture of humility and reverence. In the ancient Near Eastern context, bowing was a common gesture of submission and respect towards a sovereign. This phrase emphasizes the attitude of the heart in worship, aligning with passages likePhilippians 2:10, where every knee shall bow at the name of Jesus. It underscores the importance of recognizing God's sovereignty and majesty.

let us kneel before the LORD our Maker.
Kneeling is a physical act of submission and devotion, often associated with prayer and supplication. The reference to "the LORD our Maker" highlights God's role as Creator, echoingGenesis 1:1 and reinforcing the idea of God as the origin of all life. This phrase connects to the broader biblical narrative of God as the Creator and Sustainer, as seen in passages likeIsaiah 45:9-12. It also points to the intimate relationship between God and His people, as the Maker who knows and cares for His creation.

Kneel.--The practice of kneeling low in the East, only used in moments of deep humiliation, is first mentioned in2Chronicles 6:13. It was also Daniel's practice (Daniel 6:10).
