Welcome & Announcements

Call to Worship
The Lord is my strength and my song,
and he has become my salvation;
this is my God, and I will praise him,
my father’s God, and I will exalt him.

—Exodus 15:2 (ESV)

The Solid Rock
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

When darkness veils his lovely face
I rest on his unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

His oath, his covenant, his blood
Support me in the whelming flood
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay

When he shall come with trumpet sound
O may I then in him be found
Dressed in his righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

Edward Mote 1834, Tune, SOLID ROCK, William B. Bradbury CCLI 241710

King of Glory
Lift up your gaze, be lifted up
Tell everyone how great the love
The love come down from heaven’s gate
To kiss the earth with hope and grace

Sing, who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty

Lift up your hands, be lifted up
Let the redeemed declare the love
We bow down at heaven’s gate
To kiss the feet of hope and grace

Sing, who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty

There is one God, he is holy
There is one Lord over everything
There is one King, he is Jesus
King of glory, strong and mighty

You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty
You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty

Gifts — Following Jesus
I have decided to follow Jesus
To go where he may go
Now undivided, I live to worship
My heart is his alone

I will not cease to praise his name
My life’s been changed by his grace

I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)
I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)
I’m following him today

I have decided to be his witness
To take a stand for him
There’s nothing better
There’s nothing greater
Than a life with him

I will not cease to praise his name
My life’s been changed by his grace

I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)
I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)
I’m following him today

The cross before me, the world behind me
I fix my eyes on him
My Creator, my living Savior
Forgiver of my sin

I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)
I’m following Jesus (hey, hey, hey)

Affirmation of Faith
Our world, fallen into sin, has lost its first goodness,
but God has not abandoned the work of his hands:
our Maker preserves this world, sending seasons, sun, and rain,
upholding all creatures, renewing the earth, promising a Savior,
guiding all things to their purpose.

God holds this world with fierce love.
Keeping his promise, he sends Jesus into the world,
pours out the Holy Spirit, and announces the good news:
sinners who repent and believe in Jesus
live anew as members of the family of God the firstfruits of a new creation.

—Our World Belongs to God 4-5

No Other Name
One name holds weight above them all
His fame outlasts the earth he formed
His praise resounds beyond the stars
And echoes in our hearts
The greatest one of all

His face shines brighter than the sun
His grace as boundless as his love
He reigns with healing in his wings
The King above all kings
The greatest One of all

Lift up our eyes see the King has come
Light of the world reaching out for us
There is no other name
There is no other name
Jesus Christ our God

Seated on high the undefeated One
Mountains bow down as we lift him up
There is no other name
There is no other name
Jesus Christ our God

Find hope when all the world seems lost
Behold the triumph of the cross
His power has trampled death and grave
Our life found in his name
The greatest name of all

Lift up our eyes see the King has come
Light of the world reaching out for us
There is no other name
There is no other name
Jesus Christ our God

Seated on high the undefeated One
Mountains bow down as we lift him up
There is no other name
There is no other name
Jesus Christ our God

The earth will shake and tremble before him
Chains will break as heaven and earth sing
Holy is the name
Holy is the name of Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Lift up our eyes see the King has come
Light of the world reaching out for us
There is no other name
There is no other name
Jesus Christ our God

Seated on high the undefeated One
Mountains bow down as we lift him up
There is no other name
There is no other name

There is no other name
There is no other name, Jesus

Sermon
“Blessed is the Man”
Psalm 1

Prayer of Confession
Father, we confess that we have listened
to the counsel of the wicked;
we have stood in the way of sinners;
we have sat in the seat of mockers.
We have not delighted in your law with our whole hearts;
we have not thought of you at all times.
We want to be like the tree planted by streams of water.
We want to bear fruit, and not wither.
Because of Jesus, have mercy on us.
Connect us to your life-giving Spirit,
and lead us in the way of righteousness.
Amen

The Lord’s Supper

At The Table
I went the ways of wayward winds
In a world of trouble and sin
Walked a long and crooked mile
Behind a million rank and file
Forgot where I came from
Somewhere back when I was young
I was a good man’s child

‘Cause I lost some nameless things
My innocence flew away from me
She had to hide her face from my desire
To embrace forbidden fire
But at night I dream
She’s singing over me
Oh, oh, my child

Come on home, home to me
And I will hold you in my arms, and joyful be
There will always, always be
A place for you at my table
Return to me

Wondering where I might begin
Hear a voice upon the wind
She’s singing faint but singing true
Son, there ain’t nothing you can do
But listen close and follow me
I’ll take you where you’re meant to be
Just don’t lose faith

So I put my hand upon the plow
Wipe the sweat up from my brow
Plant the good seed along the way
As I look forward to the day
When at last I see
My Father run to me
Singing oh, my child

Come on home, home to me
And I will hold you in my arms, and joyful be
There will always, always be
A place for you at my table
Return to me

Come on home, home to me
And I will hold you in my arms, and joyful be
There will always, always be
A place for you at my table
At my table
At my table
Return to me

Doxology
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise him, all creatures here below
Praise him above, ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen

Thomas Ken, Tune – OLD HUNDREDTH, Genevan Psalter (1551) attr. to Louis Bourgeois.
