Welcome and Announcements
Gathering the Family Together
I Come To The Cross
I come to the cross seeking mercy and grace
I come to the cross where You died in my place
Out of my weakness and into Your strength
Humbly, I come to the cross.
Your arms are open, You call me by name
You welcome this child that was lost
You paid the price for my guilt and my shame
Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come, Jesus, I come to the cross

Call to Worship
Scripture Reading: Luke 2:33-35
33 And his father and his mother marveled at what was said about him.
34 And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed
35 (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.”
Prayer of Invocation
Gethsemane
To see the King of heaven fall in anguish to His knees,
The Light and Hope of all the world Now overwhelmed with grief.
What nameless horrors must He see,
To cry out in the garden: ‘Oh, take this cup away from me!
Yet not my will but Yours; Yet not my will but Yours.’
To know each friend will fall away, and heaven’s voice be still,
For hell to have its vengeful day upon Golgotha’s hill.
No words describe the Saviour’s plight
To be by God forsaken till wrath and love are satisfied,
And every sin is paid, and every sin is paid.
What took Him to this wretched place, What kept Him on this road?
His love for Adam’s cursed race, for every broken soul.
No sin too slight to overlook, No crime too great to carry,
All mingled in this poisoned cup, and yet He drank it all
The Saviour drank it all, The Saviour drank it all.

Children’s Sermon
(11:00 a.m. Only)
We Respond to God’s Presence
Still, My Soul, Be Still
Still, my soul, be still, and do not fear
Though winds of change may rage tomorrow
God is at your side; No longer dread
The fires of unexpected sorrow
Refrain: God, You are my God
And I will trust in You and not be shaken
Lord of peace renew
A steadfast spirit within me
To rest in You alone
Still, my soul, be still; Do not be moved
By lesser lights and fleeting shadows
Hold onto His ways with shield of faith
Against temptations flaming arrows
Repeat Refrain
Still, my soul, be still; Do not forsake
The Truth you learned in the beginning
Wait upon the Lord and hope will rise
As stars appear when day is dimming
Repeat Refrain

“Man of Sorrows,” What a Name!
“Man of sorrows!” what a name for the Son of God who came
Ruined sinners to reclaim! Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Bearing Shame and scoffing rude, in my place condemned He stood,
Sealed my pardon with His blood; Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Guilty, vile and helpless we, Spotless Lamb of God was He;
Full atonement! Can it be? Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Lifted up was He to die, “It is finished,” was His cry;
Now in heaven exalted high, Hallelujah, what a Savior!
When He comes, our glorious King, All His ransomed home to bring,
Then anew this song we’ll sing, Hallelujah, what a Savior!
Benediction
