Hear the Call of the Kingdom

Hear the call of the kingdom, lift your eyes to the King,

Let His song rise within you as a fragrant offering

Of how God rich in mercy came in Christ to redeem

All who trust in His unfailing grace

Hear the call of the Kingdom to be children of light

With the mercy of heaven the humility of Christ

Walking justly before Him, loving all that is right

That the life of Christ may shine through us

Refrain: King of Heaven we will answer the call

We will follow bringing hope to the world

Filled with passion filled with power to proclaim

Salvation in Jesus’ name

Hear the call of the Kingdom to reach out to the lost

With the Father’s compassion in the wonder of the cross

Bringing peace and forgiveness and a hope yet to come

Let the nations put their trust in Him

Repeat Refrain:

Call To Worship

Scripture Reading: Romans 8:26-30

²⁶ Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

²⁷ And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

²⁸ And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

²⁹ For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.

³⁰ And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.

Prayer of Invocation

Declaring What We Believe

Neither Death Nor Life

Romans 8:38-39

“Neither death nor life, nor angels, nor rulers,

nor trials in the present, nor any trial to come;

neither height nor depth, nor all of creation

can ever separate us from the love of God

poured out in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

We Respond to God’s Presence

For Your Gift of God the Spirit
1. For your gift of God the Spirit, power to make our lives anew,
Pledge of life and hope of glory, Savior, we would worship you.

Crowning gift of resurrection sent from your ascended throne,

Fullness of the very Godhead, come to make your life our own.
1. He who in creations’ dawning brooded on the lifeless deep,
Still across our nature’s darkness moves to wake our souls from sleep,

Moves to stir, to draw, to quicken, thrusts us through with sense of sin;

Brings to birth and seals and fills us—saving Advocate within.
1. He, himself the living Author, wakes to life the sacred Word,
Reads with us its holy pages and reveals our risen Lord.

He it is who works within us teaching rebel hearts to pray,

He whose holy intercessions rise for us both night and day.
1. He, the mighty God, indwells us; His to strengthen, help, empower;
His to overcome the tempter, ours to call in danger’s hour.

In his strength we dare to battle all the raging hosts of sin,

And by him alone we conquer foes without and foes within.
1. Father, grant your Holy Spirit in our hearts may rule today,
Grieved not, quenched not, but unhindered,

work in us his sovereign way.

Fill us with your holy fullness, God the Father, Spirit, Son;

In us, through us, then forever, shall your perfect will be done.

Baptized in Water
1. Baptized in water, sealed by the Spirit,
cleansed by the blood of Christ, our King.

Heirs of salvation, trusting his promise,

faithfully now God’s praise we sing.

dead in the tomb with Christ, our King.

One with his rising, freed and forgiven,

thankfully now God’s praise we sing.

marked with the sign of Christ, our King.

Born of one Father, we are his children,

joyfully now God’s praise we sing.
