To end the service and dismiss the congregation the worship leader come to the pulpit again
to have a closing song. The song performed was We Want to See Jesus Lifted High. Since the
theme of the preaching of the Word was praise, this specific closing song had the purpose to make
the congregation leave the service concentrated on the main theme of the whole service.
