Firm Foundation

Jesus, You're my firm foundation, I know I can stand secure;

Jesus, You're my firm foundation, I put my hope in Your holy Word,

I put my hope in Your holy Word.

I have a living hope,                        (I have a living hope)

I have a future.                                 (I have a future)

God has a plan for me,                     (God has a plan for me)

Of this I’m sure,                               (of this I’m sure.)

(Repeat the first part.)

Your Word is faithful,                     (Your Word is faithful)

Mighty in power.                             (Mighty in power)

God will deliver me,                        (God will deliver me)

Of this I’m sure,                               (of this I’m sure.)

(Repeat the first part.)

Call To Worship

Scripture Reading:                                                    Philippians 2:5-11

⁵ Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,

⁶ who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped,

⁷ but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.

⁸ And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

⁹ Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name,

¹⁰ so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,

¹¹ and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Declaring What We Believe

Red Hymnal #547

The Church’s One Foundation

Verse 1

The Church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord.

She is His new creation by water and the word.

From heaven He came and sought her to be His holy bride.

With His own blood He bought her, and for her life He died.

Verse 2

Elect from every nation; yet one o’er all the earth.

Her charter of salvation; one Lord, one faith, one birth.

One holy name she blesses; partakes one holy food,

And to one hope she presses with every grace endued.

Verse 3

‘Mid toil and tribulation, and tumult of her war,

She waits the consummation of peace forever more,

Till with the vision glorious, Her longing eyes are blest.

And the great Church victorious shall be the Church at rest.

Verse 4

Yet she on earth hath union with God, the Three in One,

And mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won.

O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we

Like them the meek and lowly, on high may dwell with Thee.

We Respond to God’s Presence

We Are Your Church

God has built His church on one foundation—

Jesus Christ, the Living Cornerstone.

Crucified and risen to redeem us,

We adore and worship Him alone.

Refrain:

We are Your church, Your bride, the people of Your name.

In Your strength we live; we worship, unashamed,

For Your cause we serve; We joyfully proclaim we are Your people;

We are Your church.

Set apart to serve our loving Savior,

given power to share redemption’s plan—

We will tell the world the love of Jesus;

we will preach the cross to every land.          (Repeat Refrain)

With a shout, the Bridegroom is returning.

Heaven’s Prince will come to claim His own.

We will rise to reign with Him forever;

We will sing our praise around His throne.    (Repeat Refrain)

Psalm 62B                                                                  Blue Psalter, pg 382

My Soul Finds Rest in God Alone

My soul finds rest in God alone, My Rock and my salvation,

A fortress strong against my foes, And I will not be shaken.

Though lips may bless and hearts may curse,

And lies like arrows pierce me,

I’ll fix my heart on righteousness; I’ll look to Him who hears me.

Chorus:     O praise Him, hallelujah, My Delight and my Reward;

Everlasting, never failing, My Redeemer, my God.

Find rest, my soul, in God alone, Amid the world’s temptations;

When evil seeks to take a hold, I’ll cling to my salvation.

Though riches come and riches go, Don’t set your heart upon them;

The fields of hope in which I sow, Are harvested in heaven.

(Repeat Chorus)

I’ll set my gaze on God alone, And trust in Him completely;

With every day pour out my soul, And He will prove His mercy.

Though life is but a fleeting breath, A sigh too brief to measure,

My King has crushed the curse of death And I am His forever.

(Repeat Chorus)

Now unto Him

Now unto Him who is able to keep you from falling

And to make you stand in His presence

Blameless and with great joy.

To the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ, our Lord,

Both now and forever. Amen
