This did several things.
1. It showed they had no weapons in their hands, and meant no ill, they were not enemies.
2. It exposed their neck, putting them in a very vulnerable position to the king or his servants.
3. It kept one from really seeing what the king or his guards were doing thus demonstrating trust.
4. It placed you in a vulnerable position that prevented you from being able to defend yourself, again displaying trust.
Worship then is when we come to God without fighting Him or His will, with total trust in His goodness, completely vulnerable in that we are willing for HIM to hold all the cards and dispose of us as He sees fit, with no resistance on our part.
