Welcome & Announcements

 

Call to Worship
Sing praises to God and to his name!
Sing loud praises to him who rides the clouds.
Father to the fatherless, defender of widows—
this is God, whose dwelling is holy — rejoice in his presence!

—Psalm 68:4-5

 

King of Glory
Lift up your gaze, be lifted up
Tell everyone how great the love
The love come down from heaven’s gate
To kiss the earth with hope and grace

Sing, who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty

Lift up your hands, be lifted up
Let the redeemed declare the love
We bow down at heaven’s gate
To kiss the feet of hope and grace

Sing, who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty
Who is this King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty

There is one God, he is holy
There is one Lord over everything
There is one King, he is Jesus
King of glory, strong and mighty

There is one God, he is holy
There is one Lord over everything
There is one King, he is Jesus
King of glory, strong and mighty

You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty
You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty

You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty
You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty

You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty
You are the King of glory
The Lord, strong and mighty

O Praise Him
Turn your ear to Heaven
And hear the noise inside
The sound of angels awe
The sound of angels songs

And all this for a King
We could join and sing
All to Christ the King

How constant, how divine
This song of ours will rise
O, how constant how divine
This love of ours will rise, will rise…

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

Turn your gaze to Heaven
And raise a joyous noise
The sound of salvation come
The sound of rescued ones

And all this for a King
Angels join to sing
All for Christ our King

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

How infinite and sweet
This love so rescuing
O, how infinitely sweet
This great love that has redeemed
As one, we sing…

Hallelujah, hallelujah
He is holy, he is holy

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

O praise him, O praise him
He is holy, he is holy

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

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