Call to Worship
Among the gods there is none like you, Lord;
no deeds can compare with yours.
All the nations you have made
will come and worship before you, Lord;
they will bring glory to your name.
For you are great and do marvelous deeds;
you alone are God.
—Psalm 86:8-10
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

This Is My Father’s World
This is my Father’s world
And to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings
The music of the spheres
This is my Father’s world
I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas
His hand the wonders wrought
This is my Father’s world
The birds their carols raise
The morning light, the lily white
Declare their maker’s praise
This is my Father’s world
He shines in all that’s fair
In the rustling grass I hear him pass
He speaks to me everywhere
This is my Father’s world
O let me ne’er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong
God is the ruler yet
This is my Father’s world
Why should my heart be sad
The Lord is King, let the heavens ring
God reigns, let the earth be glad
This is my Father’s world
Why should my heart be sad
The Lord is King, let the heavens ring
God reigns, let the earth be glad

Glory Is Yours
Blessing, honor, strength, and power
Yours alone now and forever
Love this world could never stop
There is no one like our God
Reaching down to touch the broken
Mercy breaking through this moment
Faithful is the one who saves
Worthy is your name
Oh God, the glory is yours
The Kingdom has come
And the battle is over
Jesus, in your name we rise
And the glory is yours
The glory is yours
Throngs and angels watch in wonder
On that day when time is over
Every heart at last proclaim
“Worthy is your name!”
Oh God, the glory is yours
The Kingdom has come
And the battle is over
Jesus, in your name we rise
And the glory is yours
The glory is yours
Oh God, the glory is yours
The Kingdom has come
And the battle is over
Jesus, in your name we rise
And the glory is yours
The glory is yours
Nobody beside you
There has never been anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There has never been anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There will never be anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There will never be anyone, anything like you
Oh God, the glory is yours
The Kingdom has come
And the battle is over
Jesus, in your name we rise
And the glory is yours
The glory is yours
Oh God, the glory is yours
The Kingdom has come
And the battle is over
Jesus, in your name we rise
And the glory is yours
The glory is yours
Nobody beside you
There has never been anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There has never been anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There will never be anyone, anything like you
Nobody beside you
There will never be anyone, anything like you

Gifts — House of God Forever
God is my shepherd
I won’t be wanting, I won’t be wanting
He makes me rest
In fields of green with quiet streams
Even though I walk
Through the valley of death and dying
I will not fear
Because you are with me
You are with me
Your shepherd’s staff comforts me
You are my feast in the presence of enemies
Surely goodness will follow me
Follow me in the house of God forever
God is my shepherd
I won’t be wanting, I won’t be wanting
He makes me rest
In fields of green by quiet streams
Even while I’m walking
Through the valley of death and dying
I will not fear
Because you are with me
You’re always with me
Your shepherd’s staff comforts me
You are my feast in the presence of enemies
Surely goodness will follow me
Follow me in the house of God forever

Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
and born of the virgin Mary.
He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty.
From there He will come to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy *catholic church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy
Lord God almighty
Early in the morning
Our song shall rise to thee
Holy, holy, holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons, blessed trinity
Holy, holy, holy
Though the darkness hide thee
Though the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see
Only thou art holy
There is none beside thee
Perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity
Holy, holy, holy
Lord God almighty
All thy works shall praise thy name
In earth, and sky, and sea
Holy, holy, holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons, blessed trinity
God in three persons, blessed trinity

Sermon
A Place at the Table — David & Mephibosheth
2 Samuel 9
Prayer of Confession
Lord God, we are sinful.
Our hearts are cold, our faith is shallow,
and in our arrogance, we deny our need of you.
Have mercy and forgive us, for Jesus’ sake.
Warm our hearts with your love, give us your restoring grace,
and make us a people who find their identity in belonging to you.
Through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Savior. Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love.
— Micah 7:18
The Lord’s Supper
In Christ Alone
In Christ alone, my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My comforter, my all in all
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones he came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground his body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave he rose again
And as he stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am his and he is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from his hand
‘Til he returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
