Pastor of Missions
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
God, the Lord, a King Remaineth (vs 1-4)
God, the Lord, a King remaineth, robed in his own glorious light;
God hath robed him and he reigneth; he hath girded him with might.
Alleluia! Alleluia! God is King in depth and height.
In her everlasting station earth is poised, to swerve no more;
thou hast laid thy throne's foundation from all time where thought can soar.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Lord, thou art for evermore.
Lord, the water-floods have lifted, ocean floods have lift their roar;
now they pause where they have drifted, now they burst upon the shore.
Alleluia! Alleluia! For the ocean's sounding store.
With all tones of waters blending, glorious is the breaking deep;
glorious, beauteous without ending, God who reigns on heav'n's high steep.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Songs of ocean never sleep.
Call to Worship
Isaiah 40:9-11
“Go on up to a high mountain, O Zion, herald of good news; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good news; lift it up, fear not; say to the cities of Judah, “Behold your God!” Behold, the Lord God comes with might, and his arm rules for him; behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him. He will tend his flock like a shepherd; he will gather the lambs in his arms; he will carry them in his bosom, and gently lead those that are with young.”
Invocation
Declaration of Truth
Deuteronomy 7:6-7
“For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. 7 It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the Lord set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples,”
Hymn of Praise
God, the Uncreated One (King Forevermore)
God, the uncreated one the author of salvation
Who wrote the laws of space and time and fashioned worlds to his design
The one whom angel hosts revere hung the stars like chandeliers
Numbered every grain of sand knows the heart of every man
He is king forever He is king forever He is king forevermore
God, our fortress and our strength the rock on which we can depend
Matchless in his majesty his power and authority
Unshaken by the schemes of man never-changing, Great I AM
Kingdoms rise and kingdoms fall he is faithful through it all
Crown him king forever Crown him king forever Crown him king forevermore
Mighty God in mortal flesh forsaken by a traitor's kiss
The curse of sin and centuries did pierce the lowly prince of peace
Oh lifted high, the sinless man crucified, the spotless lamb
Buried by the sons of man rescued by the father's hand
To reign as king forever Reign as king forever Reign as king forevermore
King eternal, God of grace we crown you with the highest praise
Heaven shouts and saints adore “You’re holy, holy, holy, Lord!”
What joy in everlasting life all is love and faith is sight
Justice rolls and praises rise at the name of Jesus Christ
King of kings forever King of kings forever King of kings forevermore

God Of Our Fathers
God of our fathers, whose almighty hand
Leads forth in beauty all the starry band
Of shining worlds in splendor through the skies,
Our grateful songs before thy throne arise.
Thy love divine hath led us in the past;
In this free land by thee our lot is cast;
Be thou our Ruler, Guardian, Guide, and Stay;
Thy Word our law, thy paths our chosen way.
From war's alarms, from deadly pestilence,
Be thy strong arm our ever sure defence;
Thy true religion in our hearts increase,
Thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace.
Refresh thy people on their toilsome way,
Lead us from night to never-ending day;
Fill all our lives with love and grace divine,
And glory, laud, and praise be ever thine.

Hymn of Response
And Can It Be? (vs 1,2,4,5)
And can it be, that I should gain an interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain for me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! how can it be that Thou, my God, should die for me?
Refrain: Amazing love! how can it be
That Thou, my God, should die for me?
'Tis mystery all! The Immortal dies: who can explore His strange design?
In vain the first-born seraph tries to sound the depths of love divine.
'Tis mercy all! let earth adore, let angel minds inquire no more.
Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature's night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray, I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free, I rose, went forth and followed Thee.
No condemnation now I dread; Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living Head, and clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach th’eternal throne, and claim the crown, through Christ my own.
