Gathering the Family Together

Press On
1. Where two or three are gathered in the name of the Lord,
He is here, He is here in our midst.

And we will sing together, be renewed by the Word.

When we part, may we go in His peace.

Chorus: Press on, all you saints, press on till the end.

Christ with us, ever with us until He comes again.

Press on, all you saints, run and run to win!

Christ with us, ever with us until He comes again.
1. Now let the Word be scattered like the seed on the soil;
Day by day, watch it grow in His care.

And may you be a shelter as you reach to the lost,

Glad in hope, calm in pain, true in prayer.

Chorus: Press on, all you saints, press on till the end.

Christ with us, ever with us until He comes again.

Press on, all you saints, run and run to win!

Christ with us, ever with us until He comes again.
1. And may He find us waiting with our lamps burning still;
Keeping watch through the night till He comes.

For soon it will be morning and the sun will appear;

Christ who brought us this far brings us home.

Chorus: Press on, all you saints, press on till the end.

Christ with us, ever with us until He comes again.

Press on, all you saints, run and run to win!

Christ with us, ever with us---until He comes again.

Oh, until He comes again.

Call To Worship

Scripture Reading: Psalm 139:13-16

¹³ For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.

¹⁴ I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.

¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

¹⁶ Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. (ESV).

Prayer of Invocation

Declaring What We Believe

Westminster Confession of Faith

4.2 – Of Creation
1. After God had made all other creatures, he created man, male and female, with reasonable and immortal souls, endued with knowledge, righteousness, and true holiness, after his own image; having the law of God written in their hearts, and power to fulfill it: and yet under a possibility of transgressing, being left to the liberty of their own will, which was subject unto change. Beside this law written in their hearts, they received a command, not to eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; which while they kept, they were happy in their communion with God, and had dominion over the creatures.
We Respond to God’s Presence

Trust and Obey

When we walk with the Lord In the light of His Word,

What a glory He sheds on our way!

While we do His good will, He abides with us still,

And with all who will trust and obey.

Refrain:   Trust and obey, for there’s no other way

To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey

Not a shadow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies,

But His smile quickly drives it away;

Not a doubt or a fear, Not a sigh or a tear,

Can remain when we trust and obey.                (Repeat Refrain)

Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share,

But our toil He doth richly repay;

Not a grief or a loss, Not a frown or a cross,

But is blest if we trust and obey.                       (Repeat Refrain)

Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at His feet,

Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;

What He says we will do, Where He sends we will go,

Never fear, only trust and obey.                        (Repeat Refrain)

Words: James H. Sammis. Music: Daniel B. Towner

All Praise to Him

Verse 1

All praise to Him, the God of light

Who formed the mountains by His might

All praise to Him Who names the stars

That sing His fame in skies afar

All praise to Him Who reigns in love

Who guides the galaxies above

Yet bends to hear our every prayer

With sovereign pow’r and tender care

Verse 2

All praise to Him whose love is seen

In Christ the Son, the Servant King

Who left behind His glorious throne

To pay the ransom for His own

All praise to Him Who humbly came

To bear our sorrow, sin, and shame

Who lived to die, Who died to rise

The all-sufficient sacrifice

Verse 3

All praise to Him whose pow’r imparts

The love of God within our hearts

The Spirit of all truth and peace

The fount of joy and holiness

To Father, Son, and Spirit now

Our souls we lift, our wills we bow

To You, the triune God, we raise

With loving hearts our song of praise

Lord, from Sorrows Deep I Call

Lord, from sorrows deep I call when my hope is shaken;

Torn and ruined from the fall, hear my desperation.

For so long I’ve pled and prayed: God, come to my rescue!

Even so the thorn remains; still my heart will praise you.

Chorus: Oh, my soul, put your hope in God;

My help, my Rock, I will praise him.

Sing, oh, sing through the raging storm.

You’re still my God, my salvation.

Storms within my troubled soul, questions without answers;

On my faith these billows roll; God, be now my shelter.

Why are you cast down, my soul? Hope in him who saves you!

When the fires have all grown cold, cause this heart to praise you.

(Repeat Chorus)

Should my life be torn from me, ev’ry worldly pleasure,

When all I possess is grief, God, be then my treasure.

Be my vision in the night, be my hope and refuge,

Till my faith is turned to sight; Lord, my heart will praise you!

(Repeat Chorus Twice)

I Am Not My Own
1. The One who made the heavens made my heart and soul,
Before I drew a breath, I was loved and known.

I am His creation, the Maker’s masterpiece,

and all that He designs will be done in me.
1. My Body is a temple of the Living God,
I’ll worship in this house that His blood has bought.

As I bear His image, oh may I not profane

The holiness I hold in this earthly frame.

Refrain: I belong to the Lord; oh, I am not my own.

I belong to the Lord; I am not my own.

I will honor Him, for this I know:

I belong to the Lord; I am not my own.
1. And if He has redeemed me, I am not my own;
The measure of my worth is His love alone.

He declares my standing and He declares my state.

So I will know myself by the name He gave.

(Repeat Refrain)
1. I am not my own, and now my heart is free;
Oh, Maker, come and make what You will of me.

There is nothing broken that You cannot repair,

So Lord, I leave my life in your loving care.

I belong to the Lord; oh, I am not my own.

I belong to the Lord; I am not my own.

I will honor Him, for this I know:

I belong to the Lord; I am not my own.

I will honor Him, for this I know:

I belong to the Lord; I am not my own.
