Worship – September 8, 2013

Call to Worship — Creed
I believe in God the Father
Almighty maker of heaven, and maker of earth
And in Jesus Christ
His only begotten Son our Lord

He was conceived by the Holy Spirit
Born of the virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius Pilate
He was crucified and dead and buried

And I believe what I believe
Is what makes me who I am
No I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God
And not the invention of any man

I believe that he who suffered
Was crucified, buried and dead
He descended into hell
And on the third day he rose again

He ascended into heaven
Where he sits at God’s mighty right hand
I believe that he’s returning
To judge the quick and the dead and the sons of man

And I believe what I believe
Is what makes me who I am
No I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God
And not the invention of any man

I believe in God the Father
Almighty maker of heaven, and maker of earth
And in Jesus Christ
His only begotten Son our Lord

I believe in the Holy Spirit, one holy church
The communion of saints
The forgiveness of sin,
I believe in the resurrection
Lord, I believe in a life that never ends

And I believe what I believe
Is what makes me who I am
And I did not make it, no it is making me
No I did not make it, no it is making me
No I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God
And not the invention of any man

O For A Thousand
O, for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise
The glories of my God and King
The triumphs of his grace

Jesus, the name that charms our fears
That bids our sorrows cease
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears
‘Tis life and health and peace

He breaks the power of cancelled sin
He sets the prisoners free
His blood can make the foulest clean
His blood availed for me

He speaks and listening to his voice
New life the dead receive
The mournful broken hearts rejoice
The humble poor believe

My gracious Master and my God
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of thy name

Charles Wesley, 1739. Tune, AZMON, Carl G. Glaser, 1784-1829; adapt. Lowell Mason, 1839

An Affirmation of Faith
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses,
let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles,

and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us

let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith,

who for the joy set before him endured the cross,
scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men,

so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

—Hebrews 12:1-3

God You Reign
You paint the night
You count the stars
And you call them by name
The skies proclaim, ‘God you reign’

Your glory shines
You teach the sun
When to bring a new day
Creation sings, ‘God you reign’

God you reign
God you reign
Forever and ever
God you reign

You part the seas
You move the mountains
With the words that you say
My song remains, ‘God you reign’

You hold my life
You know my heart
And you call me by name
I live to say, ‘God you reign’

God you reign
God you reign
Forever and ever
God you reign

Hallelujah, hallelu
Hallelujah, hallelu
(repeat)

God you reign
God you reign
Forever and ever
God you reign
(repeat)

Hallelujah, hallelu
Hallelujah, hallelu
(repeat)

Sermon
“A Faith Passed Down”
2 Timothy 1:1-7

Song of Confession — Lord, I Need You
Lord I come, I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
Without you, I fall apart
You’re the one that guides my heart

Lord, I need you, O I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness
O God how I need you

Where sin runs deep your grace is more
Where grace is found is where you are
And where you are Lord, I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

Lord, I need you, O I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness
O God how I need you

Teach my song to rise to you
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on you
Jesus, you’re my hope and stay

Lord, I need you, O I need you
Every hour I need you
My one defense, my righteousness
O God how I need you

You’re my one defense, my righteousness
O God how I need you

The Lord’s Supper — In The Shadow of the Glorious Cross
In the shadow of the glorious cross
Compelled by grace to cast my lot
I’ll discard the loss and bare your name
Forsaking all for your own fame

Your hymn of grace sung over me
Abounding forth in glorious streams
My thirst is quenched by you, my Lord
Sustained am I, redeemed, restored
Sustained am I, redeemed, restored

Hallelujah, hallelujah

When death’s dark shadow’s at my feet
When I am plagued by unbelief
You place my hands into your side
By precious blood identified
By precious blood identified
Hallelujah, hallelujah

These crowns I’ve clenched with fisted hands
I cast them down before the throne
Of Christ, my God, the worthy lamb
Christ crucified, the Great I AM
Christ crucified, the Great I AM
Christ crucified, the Great I AM

Hallelujah, hallelujah
