Order Of Worship
Call To Worship – Ephesians 3:14-21
Prayer:
To be read aloud, together:
Almighty God, you have built your Church upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone: Grant us so to be joined together in unity of spirit by their teaching, that we may be made a holy temple acceptable to you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
SONG: COME THOU FOUNT
Come, Thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, mount of Thy redeeming love
Hitherto Thy love has blessed me, Thou hast brought me to this place
And I know Thy hand will bring me safely home by Thy good grace
Jesus sought me when a stranger wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger, interposed His precious blood
Oh to grace how great a debtor daily I’m constrained to be
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it prone to leave the God I love
Here’s my heart, oh take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above
Oh that day when freed from sinning I shall see Thy lovely face
Full arrayed in blood-washed linen how I’ll sing Thy sovereign grace
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry, bring Thy promises to pass
For I know Thy pow’r will keep me till I’m home with Thee at last
GENERAL CONFESSION
To be read aloud, together:
Almighty and most merciful Father,
We have erred, and strayed from thy ways like lost sheep. We have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts. We have offended against thy holy laws. We have left undone those things which we ought to have done; and we have done those things which we ought not to have done; and there is no health in us. But thou, O Lord, have mercy upon us, miserable offenders. Spare thou them, O God, which confess their faults. Restore thou them that are penitent; according to thy promises declared unto mankind in Christ Jesu our Lord. And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake, that we may hereafter live a godly, righteous, and sober life, to the glory of thy holy name. Amen.
READING OF THE WORD – 1 Peter 1:13-21
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 are 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: Good To Me
I put all my hope in the truth of Your promise
And I steady my heart on the ground of Your goodness
When I'm bowed down with sorrow, I will lift up Your name
And the foxes in the vineyard will not steal my joy
Because You are good to me, good to me
You are good to me, good to me
You are good to me
I lift my eyes to the hills where my help is found
Your voice fills the night, raise my head up to hear the sound
Though fires burn all around me, I will praise You my God
And the foxes in the vineyard will not steal my joy
Sermon: Core Values (Acts 20:17-21:17)
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.
