What A Mighty God We Serve
1. What a mighty God we serve. What a mighty God we serve.
Angels bow before Him. Heaven and earth adore Him.

What a mighty God we serve!

Repeat Verse 1

Call To Worship

Scripture Reading: Psalm 27:1-4, 13-14

¹ The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

² When evildoers assail me to eat up my flesh, my adversaries and foes, it is they who stumble and fall.

³ Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear;
though war arise against me, yet I will be confident.

⁴ One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life
to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in his temple.

…

¹³ I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord
in the land of the living!

¹⁴ Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage;
wait for the Lord!

Declaring What We Believe

Westminster Confession of Faith

18.1 – Of the Assurance of Salvation

Although hypocrites and other unregenerate men may vainly deceive themselves with false hopes and carnal presumptions of being in the favor of God, and estate of salvation (which hope of theirs shall perish): yet such as truly believe in the Lord Jesus, and love him in sincerity, endeavoring to walk in all good conscience before him, may, in this life, be certainly assured that they are in the state of grace, and may rejoice in the hope of the glory of God, which hope shall never make them ashamed.

We Respond to God’s Presence

Psalm 145G Blue Psalter, pg 952

We Will Extol You, God and King
1. We will extol you, God and King, and bless your holy name.
Day after day we’ll sing your praise, forever and forever.

Chorus: One generation will call to the next:

“Our God is good and his hand is strong!”

All of the world sings his marvelous acts

And our voice will join with theirs in the song.
1. Great is the Lord! In all his ways he’s greatly to be praised.
Were we to search for endless days, his greatness none could fathom.

(repeat chorus)
1. We contemplate the splendor of the world your hand has made.
Far greater still the majesty we see in the Creator!

(repeat chorus)
1. Now may your name be sung in every tongue in every place.
Singing the fame of your great love in ev’ry generation.

(repeat chorus)

O Church, Arise

O Church, arise, and put your armor on;

hear the call of Christ our Captain.

For now the weak can say that they are strong

in the strength that God has given.

With a shield of faith and belt of Truth,

we’ll stand against the devil’s lies;

And army bold, whose battle cry is love,

reaching out to those in darkness.

Our call to war to love the captive soul,

but to rage against the captor;

And with the sword that makes the wounded whole,

we will fight with faith and valor.

When faced with trials on every side,

we know the outcome is secure,

And Christ will have the prize for which He died

– an inheritance of nations.

Come see the cross, where love and mercy meet,

as the Son of God is stricken;

Then see His foes lie crushed beneath His feet,

for the Conqueror has risen!

And as the stone is rolled away

and Christ emerges from the grave,

This victory march continues till the day

every eye and heart shall see Him.

So Spirit come, put strength in every stride,

give grace for every hurdle,

That we may run with faith to win the prize

of a servant good and faithful.

As saints of old still line the way,

retelling triumphs of His grace,

We hear their calls and hunger for the day

when with Christ we stand in Glory.

I Come by the Blood

You are the perfect and righteous God Whose presence bears no sin

You bid me come to Your holy place

How can I enter in When Your presence bears no sin?

Through Him, who poured out His life for me, The atoning Lamb of God

Through Him, and His work alone I boldly come

Chorus: I come by the blood, I come by the cross

Where Your mercy flows, From hands pierced for me

For I dare not stand on my righteousness

My every hope rests on what Christ has done

And I come by the blood

You are the high and exalted King, The One the angels fear

So far above me in every way, Lord, how can I draw near

To the One the angels fear?

Through Him who laid down His life for me And ascended to Your side

Through Him, through Jesus alone I boldly come

Chorus: I come by the blood, I come by the cross

Where Your mercy flows, From hands pierced for me

For I dare not stand on my righteousness

My every hope rests on what Christ has done

And I come

Chorus: I come by the blood, I come by the cross

Where Your mercy flows, From hands pierced for me

For I dare not stand on my righteousness

My every hope rests on what Christ has done

And I come by the blood

Red Hymnal #260

And Can It Be That I Should Gain?

And can it be that I should gain An interest in the Savior’s blood?

Died He for me, who caused His pain?

For me, who Him to death pursued?

Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

He left His Father’s throne above, So free, so infinite His grace!

Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam’s helpless race!

‘Tis mercy all, immense and free, For, O, my God, it found out me.

Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature’s night.

Thine eye diffused a quickening ray;

I woke – the dungeon flamed with light!

My chains fell off, my heart was free,

I rose, went forth, and followed Thee

Amazing Love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

No condemnation now I dread: Jesus, and all in Him is mine!

Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine,

Bold I approach the eternal throne,

And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
