Call to Worship
It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
and your faithfulness by night,
to the music of the lute and the harp,
to the melody of the lyre.
For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work;
at the works of your hands I sing for joy.
—Psalm 92:1-4
All the Poor and Powerless
All the poor and powerless
And all the lost and lonely
And all the thieves will come confess
And know that you are holy
And know that you are holy
And all will sing out hallelujah
And we will cry out hallelujah
All the hearts who are content
And all who feel unworthy
And all who hurt with nothing left
Will know that you are holy
And all will sing out hallelujah
And we will cry out hallelujah
Shout it
Go on and sing it from the mountains
Go on and tell it to the masses
That he is God
Shout it
Go on and sing it from the mountains
Go on and tell it to the masses
That he is God
And all will sing out hallelujah
And we will cry out hallelujah
And all will sing out hallelujah
And we will cry out hallelujah

How Firm a Foundation
How firm a foundation
Ye saints of the Lord
Is laid for your faith
In his excellent Word
What more can he say
Than to you he hath said
To you, who for refuge
To Jesus have fled
Fear not, I am with thee
O be not dismayed
For I am thy God
And will still give thee aid
I’ll strengthen thee, help thee
And cause thee to stand
Upheld by my righteous
Omnipotent hand
When through the deep waters
I call thee to go
The rivers of woe
Shall not thee overflow
For I will be with thee
Thy troubles to bless
And sanctify to thee
Thy deepest distress
When through fiery trials
Thy pathways shall lie
My grace, all sufficient
Shall be thy supply
The flame shall not hurt thee
I only design
Thy dross to consume
And thy gold to refine
The soul that on Jesus
Hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not
Desert to its foes
That soul, though all hell
Should endeavor to shake
I’ll never, no never
No never forsake

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
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

Gifts — Brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
Forgiveness is the garment of our courage
The power to make the peace we long to know
Open up our eyes to see
The wounds that bind all of humankind
May our shuttered hearts
Greet the dawn of life with charity and love
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother
When I look into the face of my enemy
I see my brother, I see my brother

Cornerstone
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly trust in Jesus’ name
Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Savior’s love
Through the storm he is Lord
Lord of all
When darkness seems to hide his face
I rest on his unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My Anchor holds within the veil
Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Savior’s love
Through the storm he is Lord
Lord of all
When he shall come with trumpet sound
Oh may I then in him be found
Dressed in his righteousness alone
Faultless, to stand before the throne
Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Savior’s love
Through the storm he is Lord
Lord of all
Christ alone, Cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Savior’s love
Through the storm he is Lord
Lord of all

Sermon
“Breaking the First Barrier — David & Shimei”
2 Samuel 16:5-14
Prayer of Confession
Abba Father,
you chose us as your children,
but we have forgotten who we are.
We live apart from you, as orphans.
We serve ourselves instead of our neighbors.
Forgive us; cleanse us; restore us.
Help us to remember that, as your children,
our citizenship is in heaven.
Give us grace and mercy to live transformed lives
until you return to make all things new.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
Assurance of Pardon
I, I am He who blots out your transgressions for my own sake, and I will not remember your sins.
— Isaiah 43:25
The Lord’s Supper
Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul
Dear refuge of my weary soul
On thee, when sorrows rise
On thee, when waves of trouble roll
My fainting hope relies
To thee I tell each rising grief
For thou alone canst heal
Thy word can bring a sweet relief
For every pain I feel
But oh, when gloomy doubts prevail
I fear to call thee mine
The springs of comfort seem to fail
And all my hopes decline
Yet gracious God, where shall I flee
Thou art my only trust
And still my soul would cleave to thee
Though prostrate in the dust
Hast thou not bid me seek thy face
And shall I seek in vain
And can the ear of sovereign grace
Be deaf when I complain
No still the ear of sovereign grace
Attends the mourner’s prayer
O may I ever find access
To breathe my sorrows there
Thy mercy seat is open still
Here let my soul retreat
With humble hope attend thy will
And wait beneath thy feet
Thy mercy seat is open still
Here let my soul retreat
With humble hope attend thy will
And wait beneath thy feet
