Adoration of God
The Song of Ascent
God’s people sang together as they gathered and traveled together up to Jerusalem to worship God.
Congregation
You Are My All in All
You are my strength when I am weak,
You are the Treasure that I seek, You are my All in All.
Seeking You as a precious jewel,
Lord, to give up I’d be a fool. You are my All in All.
Jesus, Lamb of God, Worthy is Your name. (x2)
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame,
rising again I bless Your name. You are my All in All.
When I fall down, You pick me up;
When I am dry, You fill my cup. You are my All in All.

Call to Worship
Psalm 24:1-6
The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, the world and those who dwell therein, for he has founded it upon the seas and established it upon the rivers.
Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord? And who shall stand in his holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to what is false and does not swear deceitfully. He will receive blessing from the Lord and righteousness from the God of his salvation. Such is the generation of those who seek him, who seek the face of the God of Jacob.
Invocation
Declaration of Truth
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From there He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic* church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
This creed traditionally dates back to the early 2nd century.
The word “catholic” means “universal”, meaning the one true church made
up of all believers in Jesus Christ from every tribe, language, people and nation.
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
The Gloria Patri’s first line was sung in the church as early as the 2nd century to affirm that God is Triune. The second line was added in the 4th century to emphasize the eternal Deity of Jesus, refuting the Arian heresy that Jesus was not eternally God.
Hymn of Praise
Ye Servants of God
Ye servants of God, your Master proclaim,
And publish abroad his wonderful Name;
The Name, all victorious, of Jesus extol;
His kingdom is glorious, and rules over all.
God ruleth on high, almighty to save;
And still he is nigh-—his presence we have:
The great congregation his triumph shall sing,
Ascribing salvation to Jesus, our King.
Salvation to God who sits on the throne!
Let all cry aloud and honor the Son:
The praises of Jesus the angels proclaim,
Fall down on their faces and worship the Lamb.
Then let us adore, and give him his right,
All glory and pow'r, and wisdom and might,
All honor and blessing, with angels above,
And thanks never ceasing for infinite love.

Hymn of Testimony
Faith Of Our Fathers
Faith of our fathers! Living still in spite of dungeon, fire, and sword;
O how our hearts beat high with joy whene’er we hear God’s glorious Word;
Faith of our fathers, holy faith
We will be true to thee till death
Our fathers, chained in prisons dark, were still in heart and conscience free;
And blest would be their children’s fate if they, like them should die for thee:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith
We will be true to thee till death
Faith of our fathers! God’s great pow’r shall draw all nations unto thee;
And through the truth that comes from God his people shall indeed be free:
Faith of our fathers, holy faith
We will be true to thee till death
Faith of our fathers! We will love both friend and foe in all our strife,
and preach thee, too, as love knows how by witness true and virtuous life:
Faith of our father, holy faith
We will be true to thee till death

Hymn of Response
He Leadeth Me
He leadeth me: O blessed thought! O words with heav'nly comfort fraught!
Whate'er I do, where'er I be, Still 'tis God's hand that leadeth me.
Refrain:
He leadeth me, he leadeth me; By his own hand he leadeth me:
His faithful foll'wer I would be, For by his hand he leadeth me.
Sometimes 'mid scenes of deepest gloom, Sometimes where Eden's bowers bloom,
By waters calm, o'er troubled sea, Still 'tis his hand that leadeth me.
Lord, I would clasp thy hand in mine, Nor ever murmur nor repine;
Content, whatever lot I see, Since 'tis my God that leadeth me.
And when my task on earth is done, When, by thy grace, the vict'ry's won,
E'en death's cold wave I will not flee, Since God through Jordan leadeth me.
