I Will Call Upon The Lord
I will call upon the Lord
Who is worthy to be praised
So shall I be saved from my enemies
I will call upon the Lord
(repeat)
The Lord liveth and blessed be the Rock
Let the God of my salvation be exalted!
The Lord liveth and blessed be the Rock
Let the God of my salvation be exalted.

Call To Worship
Scripture Reading: Romans 12:1-2
1 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.
2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Prayer of Invocation
Declaring What We Believe
Give Him Glory!
- Give glory to Creation’s God, the Source of all that is.
With but a word, He made the world, and thus the world is His.
His greatness shouts from distant stars. His goodness shines as light.
He made all things to bring Him joy, and in Him we delight!
Chorus:
We cry,
“Glory! Honor! Blessing to the King!
Power! Splendor!” all creation sings.
We cry,
“Wisdom! Riches! Thanks unto the Lamb!”
Endless praises to the great “I Am!”
- Give glory to Redemption’s Lamb, the Savior of the lost,
Who wore our flesh, then bore our curse upon a cruel cross.
He took the filth and guilt of sin; He took the wrath it earned.
He reconciled our souls to God—the wayward have returned!
(Repeat Chorus)
- Give glory to the coming King, the Lord of heaven and earth!
The fallen world, like fallen men, awaits its second birth.
“Behold, I shall make all things new,” He promised groaning men.
Dominion shall belong to Christ, and all be right again!
(Repeat Chorus)

We Respond to God’s Presence
Christ, the Sure and Steady Anchor
Verse 1
Christ, the sure and steady anchor in the fury of the storm;
When the winds of doubt blow through me
and my sails have all been torn.
In the suff’ring, in the sorrow, when my sinking hopes are few,
I will hold fast to the anchor; it shall never be removed.
Verse 2
Christ, the sure and steady anchor while the tempest rages on;
When temptation claims the battle and it seems the night has won.
Deeper still then goes the anchor, though I justly stand accused;
I will hold fast to the anchor; it shall never be removed.
Verse 3
Christ, the sure and steady anchor through the floods of unbelief;
Hopeless, somehow, O my soul now lift your eyes to calvary.
This my ballast of assurance, see His love forever proved;
I will hold fast to the anchor; it shall never be removed.
Verse 4
Christ, the sure and steady anchor, as we face the wave of death;
When these trials give way to glory and we draw our final breath.
We will cross that great horizon, clouds behind and life secured;
And the calm will be the better for the storms that we endured.
Christ, the shore of our salvation, ever faithful, ever true;
We will hold fast to the anchor; it shall never be removed.

Red Hymnal #24
O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me, is the current of Thy love –
Leading onward, leading homeward, to Thy glorious rest above!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus – Spread His praise from shore to shore!
How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore!
How He watches o’er His loved ones, died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth, watcheth o’er them from the throne!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best!
‘Tis an ocean full of blessing, ‘tis a haven giving rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus – ‘tis a heaven of heavens to me;
And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!
Words: Samuel Trevor Francis. Music: EBENEZER, Thomas J. Williams

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.
