Crown Him with Many Crowns

Verse 1

Crown Him with many crowns, the Lamb upon His throne:

Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own!

Awake, my soul, and sing of Him who died for thee;

And hail Him as thy matchless King through all eternity.

Verse 2

Crown Him the Lord of love: Behold His hands and side,

Rich wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified;

No angel in the sky can fully bear that sight,

But downward bends His wondering eye at mysteries so bright.

Verse 3

Crown Him the Lord of life: Who triumphed o’er the grave,

Who rose victorious to the strife for those He came to save;

His glories now we sing, Who died and rose on high,

Who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.

Verse 4

Crown Him the Lord of heaven: One with the Father known,

One with the Spirit through Him given from yonder glorious throne.

To Thee be endless praise, for Thou for us hast died;

Be Thou, O Lord, through endless days adored and magnified.

Verse 5

Crown Him the Lord of years: The potentate of time,

Creator of the rolling spheres, ineffably sublime.

All hail, Redeemer, hail! For Thou hast died for me;

Thy praise and glory shall not fail throughout eternity. Amen.

Lyrics: Matthew Bridges, 1851; Godfrey Thring, 1874. Music: DIADEMATA, George J. Elvey, 1868.

Call To Worship

Scripture Reading:                                                       Hebrews 4:14-16

¹⁴ Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

¹⁵ For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.

¹⁶ Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Prayer of Invocation

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

Living Waters

Are you thirsty; Are you empty? Come and drink these living waters.

Tired and broken; Peace unspoken. Rest beside these living waters

Christ is calling; Find refreshing; At the cross of living waters

Lay your life down; All the old gone; Rise up in these living waters

Chorus:          There’s a river that flows with mercy and love

Bringing joy to the city of our God

There our hope is secure; Do not fear anymore

Praise the Lord of living waters

Spirit moving; Mercy washing; Healing in these living waters

Lead your children; To the shore line; Life is in these living waters

Repeat Chorus

Are you thirsty; Are you empty? Come and drink these living waters

Love, forgiveness; Vast and boundless; Christ, He is our living waters

Repeat Chorus

Spirit of Heaven

1. Spirit of Heaven, flood over me,

forming Christ in all that I do.

Turn every sinful desire in me

into holy passion for You.

Refrain:     O, Spirit of God, come down; Let mercy and grace abound.

My passionate prayer shall be: Christ in me.

2. Spirit of beauty and holiness,

come refine with fire from above,

Till I am cast in Your righteousness

and I love the things that you love.                (Refrain)

3. Breathe Your forgiveness when darkness falls

and my heart is heavy with sin.

Fill me with faith for the higher cause

of the ceaseless praise of the King.                (Refrain)

Love bears all things,

Believes all things,

Love hopes all things,

Endures all things.

Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart.

With all thy soul, all thy strength, all thy mind.
