informative, and comfortable. Along with the worship service, there
are many other resources available including Sunday School for
nursery through 5th grade, youth ministries, and adult classes.
They’re a great way to more intimately find the pulse of who we are
as a church and connect with others. Just ask any one of our greeters
to direct the way. You can find much more on our website at
graceevan.org. We’re glad to have you.

CALL TO WORSHIP What Child Is This
Arr. Dan Galbraith, Jared Hascheck,
What Child is this who laid to rest On Mary’s lap is sleeping Whom angels greet with anthems sweet While shepherds watch are keeping? (Chorus) This, this is Christ the King Whom shepherds guard and angels sing! Haste, haste to bring him laud The Babe the Son of Mary So bring him incense gold and myrrh come peasant King to own him The King of Kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone him
OFFERTORY O Come All Ye Faithful
Arr: Johnnyswim
Oh come all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant Oh come ye, Oh come ye, to Bethlehem Come and behold him Born the king of angels Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him, Christ the Lord. Sing choirs of angels, sing in exaltation, Oh sing all ye citizens of heaven above. Glory to God, Glory in the highest Oh come let us adore him
Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him, Christ the Lord. Ye, Lord we greet thee, Born this happy morning, Jesus, to thee be all glory here. Word of the Father, now in flesh appears, Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him Oh come let us adore him, Christ the Lord.
Raise, raise a song on high! The virgin sings her lullaby Joy, joy for Christ is born The Babe, the Son of Mary! (Chorus) Nails, spears shall pierce him through The Cross he bore for me, for you Hail, hail the Word made flesh The Babe, the Son of Mary
