WORSHIP – April 29, 2018

Welcome & Announcements

Call to Worship
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
Let us bow down and praise his name,
for his unfailing love and faithfulness endure forever.

—based on Isaiah 40 & Psalm 138

Everlasting God
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won’t grow weary

Strength will rise
As we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord

Our God, you reign forever
Our hope, our strong deliverer

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won’t grow weary

You’re the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

Strength will rise
As we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord

Our God, you reign forever
Our hope, our strong deliverer

Come Thou Fount
Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by ﬂaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I’m ﬁxed upon it
Mount of God’s unchanging love

Here I raise my Ebenezer
Hither to thy help I’ve come
And I hope, by thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home

Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed his precious blood

Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be
Let thy grace now, like a fetter
Bind my wand’ring heart to thee

Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it
Seal it for thy courts above

Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by ﬂaming tongues above
Praise the mount, I’m ﬁxed upon it
Mount of God’s unchanging love

Sermon
“The Grace Given to Us”
Romans 12:3-8

Prayer of Confession
God in heaven,
you call us to be transformed, but we conform to the world.
You give us hope, but we live in fear.
You offer us new life, but we cling to the old one.
Forgive, cleanse, and renew us.
Transform us by your Spirit, and give us humble hearts
that are filled with love for the world around us.
Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen

Assurance of Pardon
I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud and your sins like mist; return to me, for I have redeemed you.

— Isaiah 44:22

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

Doxology
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise him, all creatures here below
Praise him above, ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen

WORSHIP – April 22, 2018

Welcome & Announcements

Call to Worship
Praise be to you, Lord,
the God of our father Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.

Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.

Yours, Lord, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.

Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name.

—I Chronicles 29:10-11, 13

Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
Glorious things of thee are spoken
Zion, city of our God
He, whose word cannot be broken
Formed thee for his own abode

On the Rock of Ages founded
What can shake thy sure repose
With salvation’s walls surrounded
Thou mayst smile at all thy foes

See, the streams of living waters
Springing from eternal love
Well supply thy sons and daughters
And all fear of want remove

Who can faint while such a river
Ever will their thirst assuage
Grace which like the Lord, the giver
Never fails from age to age

Blest inhabitants of Zion
Washed in our Redeemer’s blood
Jesus, whom our souls rely on
Makes us monarchs, priests to God

Us, by his great love, he raises
Rulers over self to reign
And as priests his solemn praises
We for thankful offering bring

Savior, if of Zion’s city
I through grace a member am
Let the world deride or pity
I will glory in thy name

Fading is the worldling’s pleasure
All his boasted pomp and show
Solid joys and lasting treasure
None but Zion’s children know

John Newton, Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779 Tune, AUSTRIA arr. Franz J. Haydn, 1797, possibly from a Croatian folk melody) CCLI 241710

Blessed Be Your Name
Blessed be your name
In the land that is plentiful
Where your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name

Blessed be your name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name

Every blessing you pour out
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in
Lord still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

Blessed be your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be your name

Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be your name

Every blessing you pour out
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in
Lord still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord blessed be your name

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name

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

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

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

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

Sermon
All the Faith You Need
Romans 12:1-3

Prayer of Confession
Our Father,
have mercy on us.
We have not sought freedom for the oppressed,
even though you have freed us.
We have not cared for the broken,
even though you have healed us.
We withhold compassion from the needy,
even though you freely gave us your own Son.
We are without excuse – forgive us.
Thank you for Jesus, in whose death and resurrection
we find hope, grace, and forgiveness.
Through Him, Amen.

Assurance of Pardon
Blessed is the one whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
Blessed is the one whose sin the Lord does not count against them
and in whose spirit is no deceit.

— Psalm 32:1-2

The Lord’s Supper

O Sacred Head
O sacred Head, now wounded
With grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns thine only crown

O sacred Head
What glory, what bliss till now was thine
Yet, though despised and gory, I joy
I joy to call thee mine

What thou, my Lord, hast suffered
Was all for sinners’ gain
All mine was the transgression
But thine the deadly pain

Lo, here I fall, my Savior
Tis I deserve thy place
Look on me with thy favor, vouchsafe
Vouchsafe to me thy grace

My Savior, be thou near me
When death is at my door
Then let thy presence cheer me
Forsake me nevermore

When soul and body languish
Oh, leave me not alone
But take away my anguish
By virtue of thine

What language shall I borrow
To thank thee, dearest Friend
For this thy dying sorrow
Thy pity without end

O make me thine forever
And should I fainting be
Lord, let me ne’er outlive my love
Outlive my love to thee

Doxology
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise him, all creatures here below
Praise him above, ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
Amen

Sermon
“The Influences that Shape Us”
Romans 12:1-2

Prayer of Confession
Father, we come to you, confessing our sins.
We treat our bodies as if they do not matter to you.
We let our minds dwell on things that do not please you.
We give our hearts over to idols of our own making.
In all of this, we turn our backs to you.
Restore us to yourself,
that we may return to you and find your forgiveness.
Renew us by your Spirit, that we may know you, love you,
and find joy embracing what is good.
Through Jesus we pray, Amen.
Assurance of Pardon
There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

— Romans 8:1

The Lord’s Supper

O Come to the Altar
Are you hurting and broken within
Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin
Jesus is calling

Have you come to the end of yourself
Do you thirst for a drink from the well
Jesus is calling

O come to the altar
The Father’s arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes
Come today, there’s no reason to wait
Jesus is calling

Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy
From the ashes a new life is born
Jesus is calling

O come to the altar
The Father’s arms are open wide
Forgiveness was bought with
The precious blood of Jesus Christ
