*Call to Worship from Psalm 95

Minister: Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.

People: Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song!

*Come, Let Us Sing unto the Lord

Come, let us sing unto the Lord New songs of praise with sweet accord; For wonders great by him are done, His hand and arm have vict'ry won.

The great salvation of our God Is seen through all the earth abroad; Before the heathen’s wond'ring sight, He has revealed his truth and right.

All lands, to God lift up your voice; s Sing praise to him, with shouts rejoice; With voice of joy and loud acclaim Let all unite and praise his Name.

Minister: How does God want us to pray so that he will listen to us?

People: First, we must pray from the heartto no other than the one true God,who has revealed himself in his Word,asking everything he has commanded us to ask for.Second, we must acknowledge our need and misery,hiding nothing,and humble ourselves in his majestic presence.Third, we must rest on this unshakable foundation:even though we do not deserve it,God will surely listen to our prayerbecause of Christ our Lord.That is what he promised us in his Word.

*Ever Be

Your love is devoted like a ring of solid gold, Like a vow that is tested, like a covenant of old. And your love is enduring through the winter rain And beyond the horizon with mercy for today. Faithful you have been and faithful you will be; You pledge yourself to me and it’s why I sing.

Chorus: Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips. (4x)

You father the orphan, your kindness makes us whole; And you shoulder our weakness and your strength becomes our own. Now you’re making me like you, clothing me in white, Bringing beauty from ashes, for you will have your bride Free of all her guilt and rid of all her shame And known by her true name, and it’s why I sing. (Chorus)

You will be praised. You will be praised. With angels and saints we sing worthy are you, Lord. (Repeat 3x) And it’s why I sing. (Chorus)

Music & Lyrics: Kalley Heiligenthal, Gabriel Wilson, Chris Greely, and Bobby Strand

Thanksgiving for the Ministry of the Wright Family

Prayer for Christ’s Church and the World

I Shall Not Want

From the love of my own comfort, From the fear of having nothing, From a life of worldly passions, Deliver me, O God.

From the need to be understood From a need to be accepted, From the fear of being lonely, Deliver me, O God. Deliver me, O God.

Chorus: And I shall not want, no, I shall not want; When I taste your goodness, I shall not want; When I taste your goodness, I shall not want.

From the fear of serving others From the fear of death or trial From the fear of humility, Deliver me, O God. Deliver me, O God.

And I shall not want, no, I shall not want; When I taste your goodness, I shall not want. (Chorus)

Music & Lyrics: Bryan Brown and Audrey Assad

Prayer of Confession

Heavenly Father, we confess that despite what we may try to present to the world, we are a hurting and broken people;we are still in need of your renewing grace.

Forgive us for the sins that we try to hideand for our drive to hide them.Help us to be quick to confess,quick to turn to you for forgiveness.We pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.

*Words of Assurance Psalm 147:2-3, 5

Minister: The LORD builds up Jerusalem; he gathers the outcasts of his people.He heals the brokenhearted,and binds up their wounds.

People: Great is our LORD, and abundant in power;his understanding is beyond measure.

*My Lighthouse

In my wrestling and in my doubts, In my failures you won't walk out. Your great love will lead me through, You are the peace in my troubled sea, You are the peace in my troubled sea.

In the silence, you won't let go, In my questions, your truth will hold. Your great love will lead me through, You are the peace in my troubled sea. You are the peace in my troubled sea.

Chorus: My Lighthouse, my lighthouse, Shining in the darkness, I will follow you. My Lighthouse, my Lighthouse, I will trust the promise,  You will carry me safe to shore, Safe to shore, safe to shore, safe to shore.

I won't fear what tomorrow brings, With each morning I'll rise and sing. My God's love will lead me through, You are the peace in my troubled sea, You are the peace in my troubled sea. (Chorus)

Fire before us, you're the brightest, You will lead us through the storms. (4x) (Chorus)

Words of Institution and Partaking of the Elements

*The Wedding Feast

Chorus: O come and buy without money; O come and feast without pay; For the King has opened his banquet hall To the beggar, the outcast, and the slave.

Oh, behold, he is coming soon And he will surely bring his recompense. Go tell the world the Kingdom is at hand; His Kingdom shall make all things right again.

And the first shall be last, the last shall be first; The poor will have everything they need. The orphan who sleeps alone in the cold Shall dine at the right hand of the King. (Chorus)

Go on and leave those filthy rags behind And clothe yourself in garments white as snow. This is the hope that you’ve been longing for; This is the land that’s always been your home.

This is love like an ocean, as deep as the sea; This is love like the closest of friends; This is love without shame, this is love without cost; This is love, this is love without end. (Chorus 2x)
