Worship – October 13, 2013

Call to Worship
Praise God!
Because of the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
we have been given new life and a glorious future!

Come into his presence with praise and thanksgiving,
with laughter and song.
Give thanks to him and praise his name!

—based on 1 Peter 1

 

Come Ye Sinners
Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched
Weak and wounded, sick and sore
Jesus, ready, stands to save you
Full of pity, joined with power
He is able, he is able
He is willing, doubt no more

Come ye needy, come, and welcome
God’s free bounty glorify
True belief and true repentance
Every grace that brings you nigh
Without money, without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy

Come, ye weary, heavy laden
Bruised and broken by the fall
If you tarry ’til you’re better
You will never come at all
Not the righteous, not the righteous
Sinners Jesus came to call

Let not conscience make you linger
Nor of fitness fondly dream
All the fitness he requires
Is to feel your need of him
This he gives you, this he gives you
‘Tis the Spirit’s rising beam

Lo! The incarnate God, ascended
Pleads the merit of his blood
Venture on him, venture wholly
Let no other trust intrude
None but Jesus, none but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good

Your Grace Is Enough
Great is Your faithfulness, O God
You wrestle with the sinner’s heart
You lead us by still waters and to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is your love and justice God
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of your salvation
And all your people sing along

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise, O God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Hallelujah, hallelujah
He is holy, he is holy

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

Confession of Faith
We believe in Jesus Christ
who was of David’s line, born of Mary,
who was truly born, ate and drank;
was truly persecuted under Pontius Pilate,
truly crucified and died while those in heaven,
on earth, and under the earth beheld it;
who also was truly raised from the dead,
the Father having raised him,
who in like manner will raise us also who believe in him –
his Father, I say, will raise us in Christ Jesus,
apart from whom we have not true life.

—Ignatius of Antioch, 110 AD

 

Our God Alone
Who formed the mountains
And filled the oceans
Our God alone, our God alone

Who took the dust
And breathed life in us
Our God alone, our God alone

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia

Who came from heaven
For our redemption
Our God alone, our God alone

Who died for sin
That we may live
Our God alone, our God alone

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia

Who rose again
Death could not win
Our God alone, our God alone

Who is returning, bringing a Kingdom
Our God alone, our God alone

We will worship, we will worship
Our God alone, our God alone

We will worship, we will worship
Our God alone, our God alone

Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia

Sermon
“The Father Who Grounds Us”
2 Timothy 2:14-19

 

Prayer of Confession
Heavenly Father.
True and Living God.
Be merciful to us and forgive our sins.
Heal us from unbelief, fear and pride.
Renew within us steadfast spirits
that find rest and peace in you alone.
Restore joy where there has been barrenness of spirit,
and hope where we have been skeptical.
Cause your Word to penetrate to our hearts,
and shape us into a transformed people,
who not only profess, but also live
the Gospel before a world
in need of your good news.
Through Jesus. Amen

 

The Lord’s Supper

 

Jesus Died My Soul to Save
I stand amazed at your love for me
That lonely night in Gethsemane
This sinner’s heart can’t help but thrill
To hear you pray, “Father, not my will”

What depth of love, what reach of grace
O, how my grateful heart now aches
To sing it louder, the refrain
Jesus died my soul to save

Atonement full, applied to me
The blood that spilled at Calvary
Has swallowed all my sin and shame
I’m reconciled, in Jesus’ name

What depth of love, what reach of grace
O, how my grateful heart now aches
To sing it louder, the refrain
Jesus died my soul to save

O such pleasure, O such pain
The Father’s wrath and fury laid
On Christ whom saints and angels praise
Jesus died my soul to save

Come you broken, bound by sin
And let your weary journey end
Come and lay your burdens down
Where mercy rules and peace abounds

What depth of love, what reach of grace
O, how my grateful heart now aches
To sing it louder, the refrain
Jesus died my soul to save
Jesus died my soul to save

Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise him, all creatures here below
