Prayer for the People, the City, and the Nations

 

Gifts – Lift Every Voice
Lift ev’ry voice and sing, till earth and heaven ring
Ring with the harmonies of liberty

Let our rejoicing rise high as the list’ning skies
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea

Sing a song full of the faith
That the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope
That the present has brought us

Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on till the victory is won

God of our weary years, God of our silent tears
Thou who hast brought us thus far on our way

Thou who hast by thy might, led us into the light
Keep us forever in the path we pray

Sing a song full of the faith
That the dark past has taught us
Sing a song full of the hope
That the present has brought us

Facing the rising sun of our new day begun
Let us march on till the victory is won

Good, Good Father
I’ve heard a thousand stories
Of what they think you’re like
But I’ve heard the tender whisper
Of love in the dead of night
And you tell me that you’re pleased
And that I’m never alone

You’re a good, good Father, it’s who you are
It’s who you are it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you, it’s who I am
It’s who I am, it’s who I am

I’ve seen many searching
For answers far and wide
But I know we’re all searching
For answers only you provide
‘Cause you know just what we need
Before we say a word

You’re a good, good Father, it’s who you are
It’s who you are it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you, it’s who I am
It’s who I am, it’s who I am

You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us

You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us

Love so undeniable I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable I can hardly think
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
Into love, love, love

You’re a good, good Father, it’s who you are
It’s who you are it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you, it’s who I am
It’s who I am, it’s who I am

You’re a good, good Father, it’s who you are
It’s who you are it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you, it’s who I am
It’s who I am, it’s who I am

You’re a good, good Father, it’s who you are
It’s who you are it’s who you are
And I’m loved by you, it’s who I am
It’s who I am, it’s who I am

Praise to the Lord, The Almighty
Praise to the Lord
The Almighty, the King of creation
O my soul praise him
For he is thy health and salvation

All ye who hear
Now to his temple draw near
Praise him in glad adoration

Praise to the Lord
Who hath fearfully, wondrously, made thee
Health hath vouchsafed
And when heedlessly failing, hath stayed thee

What need or grief
Ever hath failed of relief
Wings of his mercy did shade thee

Praise him, praise him, praise him

Praise to the Lord
Who, when tempests their warfare are waging
Who, when the elements
Madly around thee are raging

Biddeth them cease
Turneth their fury to peace
Whirlwinds and waters assuaging

Praise him, praise him, praise him

Praise to the Lord
O let all that is in me adore him
All that hath life and breath
Come now with praises before him

Let the ‘amen’
Sound from his people again
Gladly for aye we adore him

Praise him, praise him
Praise him, praise him
Praise him, praise him
Praise him

Sermon
“Grace for An Ordinary Life”
Luke 19:1-10

 

Prayer of Confession
Merciful God, we have sinned.
We confess the sins no one knows,
and the sins everyone knows.
We confess the sins that are a burden to us
and the sins that no longer bother us.
We confess that we have not
loved one another as Christ loved us.
We confess that we have not
been generously forgiving
towards those who have hurt us.
Father forgive us.
Restore to us the joy of our salvation and
give us spirits ready to obey you and love others.
Through Jesus we pray. Amen.

 

Assurance of Pardon
Repent therefore, and turn back, that your sins may be blotted out, that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that he may send the Christ appointed for you, Jesus

— Acts 3:19-20

 

The Lord’s Supper

 

When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of Glory died
My richest gain, I count but loss
And pour contempt on all my pride

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ, my God
All the vain things that charm me most
I sacrifice them to his blood

See, from his head, his hands, his feet
Sorrow and love flow mingled down
Did e’er such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown

Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were an offering far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul, my life, my all

To Christ, who won for sinners grace
By bitter grief and anguish sore
Be praise from all the ransomed race
Forever and forevermore

Isaac Watt, 1709. Tunes, WALY, English melody; HAMBURG, based on plainsong, Lowell Mason, 1824 CCLI 241710

Sermon
“Stripped Down Christianity – Humility”
John 13:1-20

 

Prayer of Confession
Gracious God,
Jesus taught us to love you
with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength;
but we confess that we have loved you superficially.
Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves;
but we have loved our neighbors selectively, partially, and unequally.
Jesus taught us to trust you completely;
but we still doubt.
You have taught us all these things,
yet we have failed to learn them.
Have mercy on us and forgive us.
Wash us clean in Jesus.
We pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.

 

Assurance of Pardon
The steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children’s children.

With eyes on thee, we live on bended knee
You are alive, you are alive

O, Savior
O, Savior

Guiltless and holy, slain on a cross for me
O Bread of Life, how could this be?

So will I come and bow, take of this bread and vow
You are alive, you are alive

O, Savior
O, Savior

Though foot may slip on quaking ground
Still on my lips, your praise is found

Should mountains lose their menacing power
I’ll sing your praise, each passing hour

Though foot may slip on quaking ground
Still on my lips, your praise is found

Should mountains lose their menacing power
I’ll sing your praise, each passing hour

Call to Worship
My God is my rock—I take refuge in him!—

he’s my shield and my salvation’s strength,
my place of safety and my shelter.

He shows faithful love to his anointed ones.

Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing the praises of your name.

—based on 2 Samuel 22

 

The Solid Rock
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus’ name

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

When darkness veils his lovely face
I rest on his unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

His oath, his covenant, his blood
Support me in the whelming flood
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay

When he shall come with trumpet sound
O may I then in him be found
Dressed in his righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand

Edward Mote 1834, Tune, SOLID ROCK, William B. Bradbury CCLI 241710

 

Rejoice
Come and stand before your Maker
Full of wonder, full of fear
Come behold his power and glory
Yet with confidence draw near

For the one who holds the heavens
And commands the stars above
Is the God who bends to bless us
With an unrelenting love

Rejoice!
Come and lift your hands
And raise your voice
He is worthy of all praise

Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King
And with trembling, rejoice

We are children of the promise
The beloved of the Lord
Won with everlasting kindness
Bought with sacrificial blood

Bringing reconciliation
To a world that longs to know
The affections of a Father
Who will never let them go

Rejoice!
Come and lift your hands
And raise your voice
He is worthy of all praise

Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King
And with trembling, rejoice

All our sickness, all our sorrows
Jesus carried up the hill
He has walked this path before us
He is walking with us still

Turning tragedy to triumph
Turning agony to praise
There is blessing in the battle
So take heart and stand amazed

Rejoice!
When you cry to him
He hears your voice
He will wipe away your tears

Rejoice!
In the midst of suffering
He will help you sing…

Rejoice!
Come and lift your hands
And raise your voice
He is worthy of all praise

Rejoice!
Sing the mercies of your King
And with trembling, rejoice

Gifts — Reckless Love
Before I spoke a word
You were singing over me
You have been so so good to me

Before I took a breath
You breathed your life in me
You have been so so kind to me

O the overwhelming,
Never-ending, reckless love of God
O it chases me down,
Fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine

I couldn’t earn it,
I don’t deserve, still you give yourself away
O the overwhelming,
Never-ending, reckless love of God

When I was your foe
Still your love fought for me
You have been so so good to me

When I felt no worth
You paid it all for me
You have been so so kind to me

O the overwhelming,
Never-ending, reckless love of God
O it chases me down,
Fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine

I couldn’t earn it,
I don’t deserve, still you give yourself away
O the overwhelming,
Never-ending, reckless love of God

There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me

There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me

There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me

There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me

There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me

There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me

There’s no shadow you won’t light up
Mountain you won’t climb up
Coming after me

There’s no wall you won’t kick down
Lie you won’t tear down
Coming after me

O the overwhelming,
Never-ending, reckless love of God
O it chases me down,
Fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine

I couldn’t earn it,
I don’t deserve, still you give yourself away

Sermon
“What Will You Leave? — David & Solomon”
1 Kings 2:1-12

 

Prayer of Confession
Blessed are the poor in spirit
but we are rich in pride.

Blessed are those who mourn
but we feel no sorrow for our sin.

Blessed are the meek
but we are arrogant and brash.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness
but we crave to be filled with other things.

Blessed are the merciful
but we are impatient and unforgiving.

Blessed are the pure in heart
but our hearts stray.

Blessed are the peacemakers
but we stir up conflict and dissension.

Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness
but our lives and actions seek worldly comfort.

Blessed are those who are insulted, oppressed,
and falsely spoken against, all because of me.
but we fail to make it known that we are yours.

Your Law is holy and your Word is life,
but they are both too great for us.
We plead with you to forgive our sins
and give us the blessing of your righteousness.

Through Jesus. Amen.

 

Assurance of Pardon
Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man against whom the Lord counts no iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit.

The Lord’s Supper

 

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

All nature sings, and round me rings

This is my Father’s world

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

Why should my heart be sad

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

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…

How our spirits look and long for you

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

Like a thief in dead of night
Come our everlasting light
Let your brilliance shame the brightest day

With your voice like endless seas
Wielding swords and stars and keys
Bring the nations to their knees we pray

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

For though fitful is our flame
You’re from age to age the same
Jesus, faithful is your name and true

So until the sun does rise
Till your trumpets rend the skies
Help us keep our restless eyes on you

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

Come Lord Jesus, come
Come Lord Jesus, come

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

Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name

Unto your name
Jesus on high, be glorified
No other name
Jesus alone, Savior of all

How Great Thou Art
O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made

I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout
The universe displayed

Then sings my soul
My Savior God to thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
(repeat)

And when I think that God
His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in

That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin

Then sings my soul
My Savior God to thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
(repeat)

When Christ shall come
With shouts of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart

Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
“My God, how great thou art”

Then sings my soul
My Savior God to thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
(repeat)

Sermon
“The Hardest Grace — David & His Enemy”
2 Samuel 19:16-23

 

Prayer of Confession
God, you have searched us,
and you know us.
You know what we think,
what we say, and what we do.
We confess that our thoughts
are not always for your glory;
that our words do not always build up others;
that our deeds do not always honor you.
For the sake of your son Jesus,
have mercy on us and forgive us.
Cleanse us from all our offensive ways,
and lead us in the way everlasting.
Through Jesus we pray, Amen.

 

Assurance of Pardon
I will cleanse them from all the sin they have committed against me and will forgive all their sins of rebellion against me.

— Jeremiah 33:8

 

The Lord’s Supper

 

Man of Sorrows
Man of sorrows Lamb of God
By his own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid

Silent as he stood accused
Beaten, mocked, and scorned
Bowing to the Father’s will
He took a crown of thorns

O that rugged cross my salvation
Where your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out hallelujah
Praise and honor unto thee

Sent of heaven God’s own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed him to that tree

O that rugged cross my salvation
Where your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out hallelujah
Praise and honor unto thee

Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled

Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
O, is free indeed

Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled

Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
O, is free indeed

O that rugged cross my salvation
Where your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out hallelujah
Praise and honor unto thee

See the stone is rolled away
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah God be praised
He’s risen from the grave

O that rugged cross my salvation
Where your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out hallelujah
Praise and honor unto thee

Gloria Patri
Glory be to the Father
And to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning
Is now and ever shall be
