Call to Worship
I will exalt you, LORD, for you lifted me out of the depths.
LORD my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.
You, LORD, brought me up from the realm of the dead;
you spared me from going down to the pit.
You turned my wailing into dancing;
you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
Sing the praises of the LORD, you his faithful people; praise his holy name.
—based on Psalm 30
Arise, My Soul, Arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Shake off your guilty fears
The bleeding sacrifice
In my behalf appears
Before the throne my Surety stands
Before the throne my Surety stands
My name is written on his hands
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Shake off your guilty fears and rise
He ever lives above
For me to intercede
His all redeeming love
His precious blood to plead
His blood atoned for every race
His blood atoned for every race
And sprinkles now the throne of grace
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Shake off your guilty fears and rise
Five bleeding wounds he bears
Received on Calvary
They pour effectual prayers
They strongly plead for me
“Forgive him, O forgive,” they cry
“Forgive him, O forgive,” they cry
“Nor let that ransomed sinner die”
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Shake off your guilty fears and rise
My God is reconciled
His pardoning voice I hear
He owns me for his child
I can no longer fear
With confidence I now draw nigh
With confidence I now draw nigh
And “Father, Abba, Father,” cry
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Arise (arise), arise (arise), arise
Arise, my soul, arise
Shake off your guilty fears and rise

Sermon
“‘I’ is for Indifference”
Revelation 3:14-22
Prayer of Confession
Father we admit our indifference,
Both toward you and toward our neighbor.
We reject your rule,
And ignore the pain and suffering of others.
We forget that we are dependent on you,
And treat others as dispensable.
We ask you to forgive our sin,
And cover our shame with the righteousness of Christ.
In whose name we pray, Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
“But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For as by a man came death, by a man has come also the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ shall all be made alive.”
—1 Corinthians 15:20-22
The Lord’s Supper
For the Lamb
On a shameful day he died
In the sorrow of defeat
But forgiveness was his cry
As his blood ran down for me
How the Father’s heart was torn
As his only Son was slain
But the earth would soon rejoice
From the place where hope was lain
For the Lamb has overcome
Everlasting love has won
In eternal praise we will lift him up
For the Lamb has overcome the world
By his Spirit we are raised
To the fullness of new life
In a moment we’ll be changed
And forever glorified
For the Lamb has overcome
Everlasting love has won
In eternal praise we will lift him up
For the Lamb has overcome the world
Most high and lifted up
Be glorified forever
Jesus has overcome
Declare it now together
Most high and lifted up
Be glorified forever
Jesus has overcome
Declare it now together
For the Lamb has overcome
Everlasting love has won
In eternal praise we will lift him up
For the Lamb has overcome the world
For the Lamb has overcome
Everlasting love has won
In eternal praise we will lift him up
For the Lamb has overcome the world
For the Lamb has overcome the world
For the Lamb has overcome the world
