Call to Worship: Revelation19:4-8 Leader: And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne, saying: People: “Amen, Halleluiah!” Leader: And from the throne came a voice saying: (Continued) The Rediscovery of GOD’s glory IN PRAISE
People: “Praise our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, small and great!” Leader: Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out: People: Hallelujah! For our Lord our God the Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and exult and give him the glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and his Bride has made herself ready; it was granted her to clothe herself with fine linen, bright and pure.”
ALLELUIA, ALLELUIA #283 Alleluia, alleluia! Hearts to heaven and voices raise: Sing to God a hymn of gladness, Sing to God a hymn of praise. He, who on the cross a victim, For the world’s salvation bled, Jesus Christ, the King of glory, Now is risen from the dead.
Christ is risen, Christ, the first fruits Of the holy harvest field, Which will all its full abundance At his second coming yield: Then the golden ears of harvest Will their heads before him wave, Ripened by his glorious sunshine From the furrows of the grave.
Alleluia, alleluia! Glory be to God on high; Alleluia! to the Savior Who has won the victory; Alleluia! to the Spirit, Fount of love and sanctity: Alleluia, alleluia! To the Triune Majesty.
GOD OF WONDERS Lord of all creation, of water earth and sky. The heavens are Your tabernacle. Glory to the Lord on high. God of wonders beyond our galaxy, You are holy holy. The universe declares Your majesty, You are holy holy. Lord of heaven and earth. Lord of heaven and earth.
Early in the morning I will celebrate the light. When I stumble in the darkness I will call Your name by night. God of wonders beyond our galaxy, You are holy holy. The universe declares Your majesty, You are holy holy. Lord of heaven and earth. (Lord of heaven and earth.) Lord of heaven and earth. (Lord of heaven and earth.)

TAKE MY LIFE AND LET IT BE #585 Take my life and let it be, Consecrated Lord to Thee. Take my moments and my days; Let them flow in ceaseless praise. Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my voice and let me sing, Always only for my King. Take my lips and let them be, Filled with messages from Thee. Filled with messages from Thee. Take my silver and my gold; Not a mite would I withhold. Take my intellect and use, Every power as You choose. Every power as You choose.
Take my will and make it Thine; It shall be no longer mine. Take my heart it is Thine own; It shall be Thy royal throne. It shall be Thy royal throne Take my love my Lord I pour, At Your feet its treasure store. Take myself and I will be, Ever only all for Thee. Ever only all for Thee.
corporate confession of sin Leader: Let us confess our sins together: People: Holy Father, forgive us. Though you should guide us, we inform ourselves. Though you should rule us, we control ourselves. Though you should fulfill us, we console ourselves. For we think your truth too high, your will too hard, your power too remote, your love too free. But they are not! And without them, we areofall people most miserable. (Continued)
Heal our confused mind with your word, heal our divided will with your law, heal our troubled conscience with your love, heal our anxious hearts with your presence, all for the sake of your Son, who loved us and gave himself for us. Amen.
absolution Leader: “The blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:7-9)
(please see bulletin) ENTERING THE NEW SONG OF RENEWAL IN CHRIST’S PRESENCE AS PROPHET, PRIEST, AND KING
JESUS PAID IT ALL I hear the savior say, “Your strength indeed is small, Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in me your all in all.” Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.
Lord, now indeed I find Your power, and yours alone, Can change the leper’s spots, And melt the heart of stone. Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.
For nothing good have I Whereby your grace to claim- I’ll wash my garments white In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.
And when, before the throne, I stand in him complete, “Jesus died my soul to save,” My lips shall still repeat. Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow.
BEAUTIFUL SAVIOR All my days, I will sing this song of gladness. Give my praise, To the Fountain of delights. For in my helplessness You heard my cry, And waves of mercy poured down on my life.
I will trust, in the cross of my Redeemer. I will sing of the blood that never fails, Of sins forgiven. Of conscience cleansed, Of death defeated and life without end.
Beautiful Savior, Wonderful Counselor, Clothed in majesty, Lord of history, You;rethe Way, the Truth, the Life. Star of the Morning, glorious in holiness, You’re the Risen One, heaven’s Champion, And You reign, You reign over all.
I long to be, where the praise is never ending. Yearn to dwell, where the glory never fades, Where countless worshipers Will share one song, And cries of “worthy” will honor the Lamb.
Beautiful Savior, Wonderful Counselor, Clothed in majesty, Lord of history, You;rethe Way, the Truth, the Life. Star of the Morning, glorious in holiness, You’re the Risen One, heaven’s Champion, And You reign, You reign over all.
Galatians 5:22-26But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.25 If we live by the Spirit, let us also keep in step with the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.
YOU ARE MY ALL IN ALL Jesus, Lamb of God. Worthy is Your name. Jesus, Lamb of God. Worthy is Your name.

DOXOLOGY Praise God from whom all blessings flow; Praise Him, all creatures here below:Alleluia! Alleluia! Praise Him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
Leader: Christians, what do you believe? People: We believe that God, who is perfectly merciful and just, sent His Son to assume our nature, and to bear the punishment of our sin by His most bitter passion and death. God manifested His justice against His Son when He laid our iniquities upon Him, and poured forth His mercy and goodness on us, who were guilty and worthy of damnation, giving His Son unto death for us, (CONTINUED)
and raising Him for our justification, that through Him we might obtain immortality and life eternal. We believe that Jesus Christ has presented Himself in our behalf before the Father, to appease His wrath, by offering Himself on the tree of the cross, and pouring out His precious blood to purge away our sins. And therefore we always ascribe all the glory to God, humbling ourselves before Him, without presuming to trust in any merit of ours, relying and resting upon the obedience of Christ crucified alone, which becomes ours when we believe in Him.

Unresting, unhasting and silent as light, Nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might; Thy justice like mountains high soaring above, Thy clouds which are fountains Of goodness and love. Great Father of glory, pure Father of light, Thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight; All praise we would render; O help us to see; ‘Tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.
