Call to Worship
Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith.
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
—Hebrews 10:22-23
Blessed Assurance
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine
Heir of salvation, purchase of God
Born of his Spirit, washed in his blood
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
Perfect submission, perfect delight
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight
Angels, descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Savior am happy and blest
Watching and waiting, looking above
Filled with his goodness, lost in his love
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long

The Earth Is Yours
Your voice it thunders
The oaks start twisting
The forest sounds with cedars breaking
The waters see you
And start their writhing
From the depths a song is rising
Now it’s rising from the ground…
Holy, holy, holy, holy Lord
The earth is yours and singing
Holy, holy, holy, holy Lord
The earth is yours
The earth is yours
Your voice it thunders
The ground is shaking
The mighty mountains now are trembling
Creation sees you
And starts composing
The fields and trees, they start rejoicing
Now it’s rising from the ground
Now it’s rising from the ground
Hear us crying out…
Holy, holy, holy, holy Lord
The earth is yours and singing
Holy, holy, holy, holy Lord
The earth is yours and singing
Holy, holy, holy, holy Lord
The earth is yours
The earth is yours
The earth is yours

Holy is the Lord
We stand and lift up our hands
For the joy of the Lord is our strength
We bow down and worship him now
How great, how awesome is he
And together we sing, everyone sing
Holy is the Lord God almighty
The earth is filled with his glory
Holy is the Lord God almighty
The earth is filled with his glory
The earth is filled with his glory
We stand and lift up our hands
For the joy of the Lord is our strength
We bow down and worship him now
How great, how awesome is he
And together we sing, everyone sing
Holy is the Lord God almighty
The earth is filled with his glory
Holy is the Lord God almighty
The earth is filled with his glory
The earth is filled with his glory
It is rising up all around
It’s the anthem of the Lord’s renown
It is rising up all around
It’s the anthem of the Lord’s renown
And together we sing, everyone sing
And together we sing, everyone sing
Holy is the Lord God almighty
The earth is filled with his glory

Gifts — I Need You Now
Not a second or another minute
Not an hour or another day
But at this moment with my arms out stretched
I need you to make a way
As you have done so many times before
Through a window or an open door
I stretch my hands to thee, come rescue me
I need you right away
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
Not another second or another minute
Not an hour or another day
But Lord I need you right away
If I never needed you before
To show up and restore
All of the faith that I let slip
While I was yet searching the world for more
The truest friend I have indeed
You are my best friend I know in need
I stretch my hands to thee, come rescue me
I need you right away
The agony of being alone
Fear of doing things on my own
The test and trials that come to make me strong
The feelings of guilt, hurt, shame and defeat
The waves of trials that beat upon me
But to know, Lord, that in you I’ve got victory
I need you now, Lord
I need you now, oh
I need you right now, right now, right now
I need you now
Oh, not another second, not another minute, Lord
Can’t wait another day, Lord, oh no
Please make a way, oh Lord

Unto Your Name
Love undeserved and unheard of
As majesty left heaven’s throne
Your riches exchanged for a cross
You carried for us
Matchless in gracious compassion
Mighty in power to save
Clothed in the sorrows of sin
For the glory of our God
For the glory of our God
Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all
Love undeserved and unheard of
As majesty left heaven’s throne
Clothed in the sorrows of sin
For the glory of our God
For the glory of our God
Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all
Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all
The heavens that shout our God is holy
Now flooding the earth with kindness and mercy
Together declare your grace so amazing
You alone are good
The heavens that shout our God is holy
Now flooding the earth with kindness and mercy
Together declare your grace so amazing
You alone are good
You alone are good
Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all
Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all

Sermon
“Wake Up!”
Revelation 3:1-6
Prayer of Confession
Father, we are forgetful people.
We have not loved your Word.
We have not walked in its light.
Fear leads us to doubt your goodness.
We chase our desires,
and they leave us empty.
Our sin brings us low;
but you, Lord, raise us up.
Cover our shame,
free us from guilt,
and make us alive with Jesus,
in whose name we pray.
Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not cover my iniquity;
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the Lord,”
and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.
— Psalm 32:5
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
Hallelujah, hallelujah

Glory be to the Father
And to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning
