Gathering the Family Together

O God, My Joy

O God, my joy, You reign above in radiant splendor and beauty.

Your word has drawn my heart to love the awesome sight of Your glory.

Your blazing light and gospel grace

shine brightly from my Savior’s face.

No other wonder would I see than Christ enthroned in His glory!

Sustained by joy in trial and pain, I trust Your wisdom and mercy.

Through suffering that Your love ordains,

more like Your Son You will make me.

For Christ embraced the cross of shame,

beholding glorious joys to come.

O give me faith like His to see that suffering lifts me to glory!

Compelled by joy, I fight the sin that turns my gaze from Your glory.

Your Holy Spirit dwells within: His presence arms me for vict’ry.

Let death and hell against me rise; through death I’ll gain eternal joys.

All powers of hell will bend the knee before my great King of glory!

Scripture Reading:                                             Colossians 3:1-4, 12-17

¹ If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God.

² Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

³ For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

⁴ When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

¹² Put on then, as God’s chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience,

¹³ bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.

¹⁴ And above all these put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.

¹⁵ And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.

¹⁶ Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.

¹⁷ And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Prayer of Invocation

Declaring What We Believe:

Psalm 72B                                                                  Blue Psalter, pg 441

Jesus Shall Reign Where’er the Sun

Verse 1         Jesus shall reign where’er the sun

does its successive journeys run,

His kingdom stretch from shore to shore

till moons shall wax and wane no more.

Verse 2         To him shall endless prayer be made,

and praises throng to crown his head.

His name like sweet perfume shall rise

with every morning sacrifice.

Verse 3         People and realms of every tongue

dwell on his love with sweetest song.

And infant voices shall proclaim

their early blessings on his name.

Verse 4         Blessings abound where’er he reigns:

the prisoners leap to lose their chains,

The weary find eternal rest,

and all who suffer want are blest.

Verse 5         Let every creature rise and bring

the highest honors to our King,

Angels descend with songs again,

and earth repeat the loud amen.

Words: Isaac Watts (1674-1748), 1719, P.D. Music (DUKE STREET): John Hatton, 1793, P.D.

We Respond to God’s Presence

Give Him Glory!
1. Give glory to Creation’s God, the Source of all that is.
With but a word, He made the world, and thus the world is His.

His greatness shouts from distant stars. His goodness shines as light.

He made all things to bring Him joy, and in Him we delight!

Chorus:

We cry,

“Glory! Honor! Blessing to the King!

Power! Splendor!” all creation sings.

We cry,

“Wisdom! Riches! Thanks unto the Lamb!”

Endless praises to the great “I Am!”
1. Give glory to Redemption’s Lamb, the Savior of the lost,
Who wore our flesh, then bore our curse upon a cruel cross.

He took the filth and guilt of sin; He took the wrath it earned.

He reconciled our souls to God—the wayward have returned!

(Repeat Chorus)
1. Give glory to the coming King, the Lord of heaven and earth!
The fallen world, like fallen men, awaits its second birth.

“Behold, I shall make all things new,” He promised groaning men.

Dominion shall belong to Christ, and all be right again!

(Repeat Chorus)

Children’s Sermon Song:

I Might Be Small

I might be small, but my God is big.

I might be small, but my God is big.

I might be small, but my God is big.

My God is bigger so much bigger.

God is bigger than anything.

Sermon Hymn:

King of the Ages

Refrain: King of the Ages, Almighty God;

Perfect love, ever just and true

Who will not fear You and bring You praise?

All the nations will come to You.
1. Your ways of love have won my heart,
And brought me joy unending;

Your saving power at work in me,

Bringing peace and the hope of glory. (Refrain)
1. Your arms of love are reaching out
To every soul that seeks You.

Your light will shine in all the earth

Bringing grace and a great salvation. (Refrain)
1. The day will come when You appear
And every eye shall see You.

Then we shall rise with hearts ablaze

With a song we will sing forever! (Refrain)
