“Come, All You Servants of the Lord”
- Come, all you servants of the Lord,
who work and pray by night, by day.
Come, bless the Lord within this place;
with lifted hands your homage pay.

and shine on you with radiant face;
The Lord who heaven and earth has made
illuminate you with peace and grace.

Oh, Shout for Joy (The New Hundredth)
Oh, shout for joy unto the Lord, Worship Him with gladness.
Let all the earth bring songs of praise, Telling of His greatness,
Know that the Lord we praise is God; He is God our Maker,
And we are His, a people called, Sheep within His pasture.
Refrain:
Oh, enter in His gates with praise, His courts with great thanksgiving;
For He is good, His love endures Morning after morning.
Oh, shout for joy unto the Lord! See the way is open
To live in peace beneath His grace, Every sin forgiven
For He who knew no mark of sin Took our sin upon Him,
That we might be the righteousness Of the God of Heaven. (Refrain)
Oh, shout for joy unto the Lord Through the hours of darkness.
For day by day His faithful hand Ever stays upon us.
With every morning rise, we kneel; All our lives we offer
To be a living sacrifice, Wholly to the Saviour. (Refrain)

Call To Worship
Scripture Reading: Romans 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”
Prayer of Invocation
Declaring What We Believe
By Faith
Verse 1: By faith we see the hand of God
In the light of creation’s grand design
In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness
Who walk by faith and not by sight
Verse 2: By faith our fathers roamed the earth
With the power of His promise in their hearts
Of a holy city built by God's own hand
A place where peace and justice reign
Refrain: We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul’s reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We’ll walk by faith and not by sight
Verse 3: By faith the prophets saw a day
When the longed-for Messiah would appear
With the power to break the chains of sin and death
And rise triumphant from the grave
Verse 4: By faith the church was called to go
In the power of the Spirit to the lost
To deliver captives and to preach good news
In every corner of the earth
Repeat Refrain
Verse 5: By faith this mountain shall be moved
And the power of the gospel shall prevail
For we know in Christ all things are possible
For all who call upon His name
Repeat Refrain

We Respond to God’s Presence
Red Hymnal #370 “O God, Our Help in Ages Past”
O God, Our Help in Ages Past
- O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home.
- Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure;
Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defense is sure.
- Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same.
- A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone;
Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun.
- O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come,
Be Thou our guard while life shall last, And our eternal home.
Red Hymnal #260 “And Can It Be That I Should Gain?”
And Can It Be That I Should Gain?
And can it be that I should gain An interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain?
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
He left His Father’s throne above, So free, so infinite His grace!
Emptied Himself of all but love, And bled for Adam’s helpless race!
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free, For, O, my God, it found out me.
Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Long my imprisoned spirit lay Fast bound in sin and nature’s night.
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray;
I woke – the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee
Amazing Love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
No condemnation now I dread: Jesus, and all in Him is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head, And clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Amazing love! How can it be that Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

Sermon Hymn:
Depth of Mercy
- Depth of mercy! Can there be mercy reaching even me?
God, the just, his wrath forbears, me the chief of sinners spares.
So many times my heart has strayed from his kind and perfect ways,
Making clear my desperate need for his blood poured out for me.
- Give me grace, Lord, let me own all the wrongs that I have done.
Let me now my sins deplore, look to you and sin no more.
There, for me, the Savior stands, holding forth his wounded hands,
Scars which ever cry for me; once condemned but now set free.

Red Hymnal #118 “A Mighty Fortress is Our God”
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
A mighty fortress is our God, A bulwark never failing
Our helper He amid the flood Of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe
His craft and power are great, And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
Did we in our own strength confide, Our striving would be losing,
Were not the right man on our side, The man of God’s own choosing.
Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He
Lord Sabaoth His name, From age to age the same
And He must win the battle
And though this world with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us,
We will not fear, for God hath willed, His truth to triumph through us.
The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him.
His rage we can endure, For lo, his doom is sure:
One little word shall fell him.
That word above all earthly powers, No thanks to them, abideth;
The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth.
Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also.
The body they may kill; God’s truth abideth still:
His kingdom is forever.
Benediction
