Leaning on the Everlasting Arms
What a fellowship, what a joy divine
Leaning on the everlasting arms
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine
Leaning on the everlasting arms

Leaning, leaning
Leaning on the everlasting arms

O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way
Leaning on the everlasting arms
O how bright the path grows from day to day
Leaning on the everlasting arms

Leaning, leaning

What have I to dread, what have I to fear
Leaning on the everlasting arms
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near

Leaning, leaning
Safe and secure from all alarms
Leaning, leaning
Leaning on the everlasting arms

Sermon
“A Humility-Shaped Unity”
Romans 12:14-21

 

Prayer of Confession
Holy and righteous God, we come to you humbly, seeking your forgiveness.
Too often, we find ourselves chasing after frivolous things,
worrying about tomorrow,
and acting as if the promises within your Word aren’t true.
We place our trust in what we can touch and see,
despite knowing those things will not last.
Give us faith and courage to put our hope and trust in you,
the one who provides everything we could ever need.
Have mercy on us, we pray. Through Jesus. 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

 

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

Brooke Ligertwood, Matt Crocker © 2012 Hillsong Music Publishing CCLI 241710

Sermon
“Rejoice & Weep”
Romans 12:14-21

 

Prayer of Confession
Father, we confess that we would rather
settle the score than love those who hurt us.
We confess that our hearts are often cold
towards those who suffer,
and we are unwilling to move towards their pain.
We confess that we think
more highly of ourselves than we ought,
and despise those who do not measure up to our standards.
Forgive our vindictive, callous, arrogant hearts;
cleanse us from all our unrighteousness;
and by your Spirit,
free us to love others as we flee to Christ in faith.
Through Jesus. Amen.

 

Assurance of Pardon
Though our sins be many we can have joy and confidence in the presence of God because we are by faith united to Jesus who always lives to intercede for us with his own blood.

—based on Hebrews 9

 

The Lord’s Supper

 

Let Us Break Bread Together
Let us break bread together on our knees
Let us break bread together on our knees

Let us break bread together on our knees
Let us break bread together on our knees

When I fall on my knees with my face to the sun
O Lord, have mercy on me

O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy on me

Let us drink the cup together on our knees
Let us drink the cup together on our knees

When I fall on my knees with my face to the sun
O Lord, have mercy on me

O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy on me

Let us praise God together on our knees
Let us praise God together on our knees

When I fall on my knees with my face to the sun
O Lord, have mercy on me

O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy
O Lord, have mercy on me

Let us break bread together
Let us drink the cup together
Let us praise God together on our knees

This is Amazing Grace
Who breaks the power of sin and darkness
Whose love is mighty and so much stronger
The King of Glory, the King above all kings

Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder
Who leaves us breathless in awe and wonder
The King of Glory, the King above all kings

This is amazing grace
This is unfailing love
That you would take my place
That you would bear my cross

You laid down your life
That I would be set free
O, Jesus I sing for all that you’ve done for me

Who brings our chaos back into order
Who makes the orphan a son and daughter
The King of Glory, the King of Glory

Who rules the nations with truth and justice
Shines like the sun in all of its brilliance
The King of Glory, the King above all kings

This is amazing grace
This is unfailing love
That you would take my place
That you would bear my cross

You laid down your life
That I would be set free
O, Jesus I sing for all that you’ve done for me

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Come As You Are
Come out of sadness from wherever you’ve been
Come broken-hearted, let rescue begin
Come find your mercy, O sinner come kneel
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can’t heal
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can’t heal

So lay down your burdens, lay down your shame
All who are broken, lift up your face
O wanderer come home, you’re not too far
So lay down your hurt, lay down your heart

Come as you are

There’s hope for the hopeless
And all those who’ve strayed
Come sit at the table, come taste the grace
There’s rest for the weary, rest that endures
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can’t cure

So lay down your burdens, lay down your shame
All who are broken, lift up your face
O wanderer come home, you’re not too far
So lay down your hurt, lay down your heart

Come as you are, come as you are
Fall in his arms, come as you are

There’s joy for the morning, O sinner be still
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can’t heal
Earth has no sorrow that heaven can’t heal

So lay down your burdens, lay down your shame
All who are broken, lift up your face
O wanderer come home, you’re not too far
So lay down your hurt, lay down your heart

Come as you are
