Prayer:
O God, who wonderfully created, and yet more wonderfully restored, the dignity of human nature: Grant that we may share the divine life of him who humbled himself to share our humanity, your Son Jesus Christ; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
SONG: PSALM 66 (YOU ARE GREAT)
Come and see what God has done, see what God has done
For every daughter and every son
Oh, come and and hear what God has done
For everyone who fears the Lord will sing of what He's done
And all the earth will shout your praise
And all the earth will sing your name
For you are great! For you are great!
How glorious your name
How awesome are your ways
For you are great! For you are great!
Corporate prayer
READING OF THE WORD – John 15:1-11
At the conclusion of the reading, the speaker will say, “The Word of the Lord,” to which we all reply:
Thanks Be To God
SONG: THE HOLLOW
You spoke and set the cedars in their roots
Your voice it lit the sun and hung the moon
I stand in awe of everything you do
Oh you who spread the stars and made them new
Who has known the hollow of his hand?
Who is like the Lord?
He who marks the heavens with a span
Over all the earth
You said that it would be and it was done
A promise made that cannot be undone
That from the fall comfort it would come
A victory was sure to be won
Your voice has set a captive people free
Your death has pardoned our iniquity
You loosed the chains of all our enemies
No longer slaves you call us family
When flowers fade your word will still endure
The earth will die and yet our hope is sure
You’ll gather up your people that you’ve saved
You’ll give us power and strength when we are faint
SONG: HIS MERCY IS MORE
What love could remember no wrongs we have done
Omniscient, all knowing, He counts not their sum
Thrown into a sea without bottom or shore
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more
Praise the Lord
His mercy is more
Stronger than darkness, new every morn
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more
What patience would wait as we constantly roam
What father, so tender, is calling us home
He welcomes the weakest, the vilest, the poor
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more
What riches of kindness He lavished on us
His blood was the payment, His life was the cost
We stood ‘neath a debt we could never afford
Our sins they are many, His mercy is more
Sermon: deburdened - matthew 11:25-30
Communion
SONG: LORD I NEED YOU
Lord, I come, I confess, Bowing here I find my rest
Without You I fall apart, You're the One that guides my heart
Lord, I need You, Oh, I need You, Every hour I need You
My one defense, my righteousness, Oh God, how I need You
Where sin runs deep Your grace is more, Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are, Lord, I am free, Holiness is Christ in me
Teach my song to rise to You, When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You, Jesus, You're my hope and stay
Benediction:
May we be compelled by the love of God, the gospel of Jesus, and the presence of the Holy Spirit to pursue His mission for our good and His glory.
