Call to Worship
I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name forever and ever.

Every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever.

Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.

My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord.
Let every creature praise his holy name forever and ever.

—Psalm 145:1-3, 21

 

Majestic
O Lord, our Lord how majestic
Is your name in all the earth

The heavens declare your greatness
The oceans cry out to you
The mountains they bow down before you
So I’ll join with the earth
And I’ll give my praise to you

O Lord, our Lord how majestic

Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee
Joyful, joyful we adore thee
God of glory, Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flowers before thee
Opening to the sun above

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light of day

All thy works with joy surround thee
Earth and heav’n reflect thy rays
Stars and angels sing around thee
Center of unbroken praise

Field and forest, vale and mountain
Flowery meadow, flashing sea
Chanting bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in thee

Thou art giving and forgiving
Ever blessing, ever blessed
Wellspring of the joy of living
Ocean depth of happy rest

Thou our Father, Christ our Brother
All who live in love are thine
Teach us how to love each other
Lift us to the joy divine

Mortals join the mighty chorus
Which the morning stars began
Father love is reigning o’er us
Brother love binds man to man

Ever singing march we onward
Victors in the midst of strife
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life

Henry van Dyke Tune HYMN TO JOY, Ludwig van Beethoven; melody from “ Nineth Symphany”; adapted by Edward Hodges, CCLI 241710

 

Prayer for the People, the City, and the Nations

 

Gifts — Though You Slay Me
I come, God I come, return to the Lord
The one who’s broken, the one who’s torn me apart

You strike down to bind me up,
You say you do it all in love
That I might know you in your suffering

Though you slay me, yet I will praise you
Though you take from me, I will bless your name

Though you ruin me, still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who’s all I need

My heart and flesh may fail, the earth below give way
With my eyes, with my eyes I’ll see the Lord

Lifted high upon that day, behold the Lamb that was slain
And I’ll know that every tear was worth it all

Though you slay me, yet I will praise you
Though you take from me, I will bless your name

Though you ruin me, still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who’s all I need

Though tonight I’m crying out
Let this cup pass from me now
You’re still more than I need

You’re enough for me
You’re enough for me

Though you slay me, yet I will praise you
Though you take from me, I will bless your name

Though you ruin me, still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who’s all I need
Sing a song to the one who’s all I need

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

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

“Cleaning House”
Matthew 21:12-17

 

Prayer of Confession
Mighty and merciful God, Lord of life and rest and peace.
With hearts of praise we adore you.
We are humbled by your compassion, and broken before your throne.
Forgive us and cleanse our hearts from sin and self.
Mold us into a renewed people.
Deepen our love for you and one another.
Give us grace to engage our neighbors in love and humility.
Make us a faithful presence in the world, until you make all things new.
Through Jesus. Amen.

 

The Lord’s Supper

 

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
