Call To Worship

Scripture Reading:                                                                    Psalm 46

¹ God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.

² Therefore we will not fear though the earth gives way,
though the mountains be moved into the heart of the sea,

³ though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble at its swelling.       Selah

⁴ There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High.

⁵ God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved;
God will help her when morning dawns.

⁶ The nations rage, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.

⁷ The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.                  Selah

⁸ Come, behold the works of the Lord,
how he has brought desolations on the earth.

⁹ He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the chariots with fire.

¹⁰ “Be still, and know that I am God.
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth!”

¹¹ The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.                  Selah

Prayer of Invocation

Declaring What We Believe

Red Hymnal #118                                                                                     

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing.

For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe

His craft and power are great, And, armed with cruel hate,

On earth is not his equal.

Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing,

Were not the right man on our side, The man of God’s own choosing.

Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name, From age to age the same

And He must win the battle

And though this world with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us,

We will not fear, for God hath willed, His truth to triumph through us.

The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him.

His rage we can endure, For lo, his doom is sure:

One little word shall fell him.

That word above all earthly powers, No thanks to them, abideth;

The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth.

Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also.

The body they may kill; God’s truth abideth still:

His kingdom is forever.

We Respond to God’s Presence

Red Hymnal #631                                                                                     

I Know Whom I Have Believed

Verse 1:

I know not why God’s wondrous grace to me He hath made known,

Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love redeemed me for His own.

But “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able

To keep that which I’ve committed unto Him against that day.”

Verse 2:

I know not how this saving faith to me He did impart,

Nor how believing in His word wrought peace within my heart.

But “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able

To keep that which I’ve committed unto Him against that day.”

Verse 3:

I know not how the Spirit moves, convincing men of sin,

Revealing Jesus through the word, creating faith in Him.

But “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able

To keep that which I’ve committed unto Him against that day.”

Verse 4:

I know not when my Lord may come, at night or noonday fair,

Nor if I walk the vale with Him, or meet Him in the air.

But “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able

To keep that which I’ve committed unto Him against that day.”

Words: Daniel W. Whittle; Music: James McGranahan

Red Hymnal #108

Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me

Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee;

Let the water and the blood, From Thy wounded side which flowed,

Be of sin the double cure; Save from wrath and make me pure.

Could my tears forever glow, could my zeal no languor know,

These for sin could not atone – Thou must save, and Thou alone;

In my hand no price I bring, simply to Thy cross I cling.

While I draw this final breath, When my eyes shall close in death,

When I rise to worlds unknown, and behold Thee on Thy throne,

Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee.

Words: Augustus M. Toplady; Music: TOPLADY, Thomas Hastings

When We See Your Face

Verse 1

Though the dark is overwhelming And the brightest lights grow dim

Though the Word of God is trampled on by foolish men
Though the wicked never stumble and abound in every place
We will all be humbled when we see Your face.

Verse 2

And the demons we’ve been fighting those without and those within

Will be underneath our feet to never rise again.

All our sins will be behind us through the blood of Christ erased,

And we’ll taste Your kindness when we see Your face.

Chorus:     We will see, we will know

Like we’ve never known before.

We’ll be found, we’ll be home

We’ll be Yours forevermore.

Verse 3

All the waiting will be over. Every sorrow will be healed.

All the dreams it seemed could never be will all be real,

And You’ll gather us together in Your arms of endless grace,

As Your Bride forever when we see Your face

Repeat Chorus

Tag:          And You’ll gather us together

In your arms of endless grace

As Your Bride forever when we see Your face

Sermon Hymn:

Wonderful, Merciful Savior

Wonderful, merciful savior, precious Redeemer and Friend;

Who would have thought that a Lamb could rescue the souls of men?

Oh, You rescue the souls of men.

Refrain:

You are the One that we praise, You are the One we adore,

You give the healing and grace our hearts always hunger for,

Oh, our hearts always hunger for.

Counselor, Comforter, Keeper, Spirit we long to embrace:

You offer hope when our hearts have hopelessly lost the way,

Oh, we hopelessly lost the way.                     (Repeat Refrain)

Almighty, infinite Father, faithfully loving Your own:

Here in our weakness You find us falling before Your throne,

Oh, we’re falling before Your throne.            (Repeat Refrain)

Now unto Him

Now unto Him who is able to keep you from falling

And to make you stand in His presence

Blameless and with great joy.

Both now and forever. Amen

Both now and forever. Amen                         (Jude 24-25)
