WORSHIP – August 5, 2018

Welcome & Announcements

 

Call to Worship
Sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Sing to the Lord, praise his name;
proclaim his salvation day after day.

Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous deeds among all peoples.

For great is the Lord and most worthy of praise.

—Psalm 96:1-4

 

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

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

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

Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name

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

Prayer for the People, the City, and the Nations

 

Gifts — Grace Alone
I was an orphan lost at the fall
Running away when I’d hear you call

But Father you worked your will

I had no righteousness of my own
I had no right to draw near your throne

But Father you loved me still

And in love before you laid the world’s foundation
You predestined to adopt me as your own

You have raised me up so high above my station
I’m a child of God by grace and grace alone

You left your home to seek out the lost
You knew the great and terrible cost

But Jesus your face was set

I worked my fingers down to the bone
But nothing I did could ever atone

But Jesus you paid my debt

By your blood I have redemption and salvation
Lord you died that I might reap what you have sown

And you rose that I might be a new creation
I am born again by grace and grace alone

I was in darkness all of my life
I never knew the day from the night

But Spirit you made me see

I swore I knew the way on my own
Head full of rocks, a heart made of stone

But Spirit you moved in me

And at your touch my sleeping spirit was awakened
On my darkened heart the light of Christ has shone

Called into a kingdom that cannot be shaken
Heaven’s citizen by grace and grace alone

So I’ll stand in faith by grace and grace alone

I will run the race by grace and grace alone

I will slay my sin by grace and grace alone

I will reach the end by grace and grace alone

Your Name
As morning dawns and evening fades
You inspire songs of praise

That rise from earth to touch your heart
And glorify your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name, let the nations sing it louder
For nothing has the power to save

But your name

Jesus, in your name we pray
Come and fill our hearts today

Lord, give us strength to live for you
And glorify your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name, let the nations sing it louder
For nothing has the power to save

But your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name, let the nations sing it louder
For nothing has the power to save

But your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name, let the nations sing it louder
For nothing has the power to save

But your name is a strong and mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no other

Your name, let the nations sing it louder
For nothing has the power to save

But your name

The Lord’s Supper

 

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

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

For the Lamb has overcome
Everlasting love has won

In eternal praise we will lift him up
For the Lamb has overcome the world

For the Lamb has overcome the world

For the Lamb has overcome the world

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

World without end
Amen, amen
