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
The Family of God
I’m so glad I’m a part of the family of God
I’ve been washed in the fountain, cleansed by His blood!
Joint heirs with Jesus as we travel this sod;
For I’m a part of the family, the family of God.

Call to Worship
Exodus 34:6
“The Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness…”
Invocation
Declaration of Truth
Philippians 2:1-8
Leader: So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind.
All: Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
Leader: Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.
All: And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
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
Wonderful, Merciful Savior
Wonderful, merciful Savior,
Precious Redeemer and Friend.
Who would have thought that a Lamb, could
rescue the souls of men? -- Oh, You rescue the souls of men.
Refrain: You are the One that we praise,
You are the One we adore.
You give the healing and grace, Our-- hearts always hunger for. --
Oh, our hearts always hunger for.
Counselor, Comforter, Keeper ,
Spirit, we long to embrace.
You offer hope when our hearts, have-
hopelessly lost the way.
-- Oh, we’ve hopelessly lost the way.
Almighty, infinite Father,
Faithfully loving Your own.
Here in our weakness You find us.
Falling before Your throne.
Oh, We’re falling before Your throne.

Hymn of Testimony
O How Good It Is
Oh how good it is when the family of God
Dwells together in spirit, In faith and unity.
Where the bonds of peace, Of acceptance and love
Are the fruits of His presence Here among us.
So with one voice we'll sing to the Lord;
And with one heart we'll live out His Word.
Till the whole earth sees the Redeemer has come
For He dwells in the presence of His people.
Oh how good it is on this journey we share,
To rejoice with the happy and weep with those who mourn.
For the weak find strength, the afflicted find grace,
When we offer the blessing of belonging.
So with one voice we'll sing to the Lord;
And with one heart we'll live out His Word.
Till the whole earth sees the Redeemer has come
For He dwells in the presence of His people.
Oh how good it is to embrace His command
To prefer one another, forgive as He forgives.
When we live as one, we all share in the love
Of the Son with the Father and the Spirit.
So with one voice we'll sing to the Lord;
And with one heart we'll live out His Word.
Till the whole earth sees the Redeemer has come
For He dwells in the presence of His people.

Our Response

Hymn of Response
Blest Be The Tie That Binds
Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in Christian love:
The fellowship of kindred minds Is like to that above.
Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayers;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims, are one, Our comforts and our cares.
We share our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear,
And often for each other flows The sympathizing tear.
When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain;
But we shall still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again.
This glorious hope revives Our courage by the way,
While each in expectation lives, And longs to see the day.
From sorrow, toil and pain, And sin, we shall be free;
And perfect love and friendship reign Through all eternity.
The Benediction and Threefold Amen
