Call To Worship

Scripture Reading:                                                        Matthew 11:1-6

¹ When Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.

² Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples

³ and said to him, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?”

⁴ And Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see:

⁵ the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

⁶ And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.”

Prayer of Invocation

Declaring What We Believe

The Apostle’s Creed

I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.

And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord;

Who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, Born of the virgin Mary;

Suffered under Pontius Pilate;

Was crucified, dead, and buried; He descended into hell;

The third day He rose again from the dead;

He ascended into heaven,

And sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

From whence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Ghost;

The holy universal church; The communion of saints;

The forgiveness of sins; The resurrection of the body;

And the life everlasting. Amen.

We Respond to God’s Presence

Sing to the King

Verse 1            Sing to the King who is coming to reign.

Glory to Jesus, the Lamb that was slain.

Life and salvation his empire shall bring,

and joy to the nations when Jesus is King.

Refrain:          Come, let us sing a song, a song declaring

that we belong to Jesus; he is all we need.

Lift up a heart of praise.

Sing now with voices raised to Jesus,

sing to the King.

Verse 2            For his returning, we watch and we pray;

We will be ready the dawn of that day.

We’ll join in singing with all the redeemed,

Cause Satan is vanquished and Jesus is King.

(Repeat Refrain)

There is a Redeemer

There is a Redeemer, Jesus, God's own Son,

Precious Lamb of God, Messiah, Holy One.

Thank You, O my Father, for giving us Your Son;

And leaving Your Spirit 'til the work on earth is done.

Jesus, my Redeemer, Name above all names,

Precious Lamb of God, Messiah, hope for sinners slain.

Thank You, O my Father, for giving us Your Son;

And leaving Your Spirit 'til the work on earth is done.

When I stand in glory I will see His face,

And there I'll serve my King forever, in that holy place.

Thank You, O my Father, for giving us Your Son;

And leaving Your Spirit 'til the work on earth is done.

1. Blest are they, the lowly ones, they shall inherit the earth.
Blest are they who hunger and thirst, they shall have their fill.

Repeat Refrain
1. Blest are they who show mercy, mercy shall be theirs.
Blest are they, the pure of heart, they shall see God!

Repeat Refrain
1. Blest are they who seek peace; they are the children of God.

Repeat Refrain

Rejoice and be glad, yours is the kingdom; shine for all to see.
