Call to Worship

16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up. And as was his custom, he went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and he stood up to read.  17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, 19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.” 20 And he rolled up the scroll and gave it back to the attendant and sat down. And the eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. 21 And he began to say to them, “Today this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.”

Luke 4:16-21(ESV)

Hail to the Lord’s Anointed

 

Hail to the Lord’s anointed, 

great David’s greater Son! 
Hail in the time appointed, 

His reign on earth begun!

His reign on earth begun!

He comes to break oppression, 

to set the captive free, 
To take away transgression, 

and rule in equity.

 

Hail to the Lord’s anointed, 

great David’s greater Son! 
Hail in the time appointed, 

His reign on earth begun!

His reign on earth begun!

 

He comes to comfort speedy 

to those who suffer wrong, 
To help the poor and needy, 

and bid the weak be strong.

 

To give them songs for sighing, 

their darkness turn to light, 
Whose souls, condemned and dying, 

are precious in His sight.

 

Hail to the Lord’s anointed, 

great David’s greater Son! 
Hail in the time appointed, 

His reign on earth begun!

His reign on earth begun!

He shall come down like showers 

upon the fruitful earth, 
Love, joy, and hope, like flowers, 

spring in His path to birth.

 

Hail to the Lord’s anointed, 

great David’s greater Son! 
Hail in the time appointed, 

His reign on earth begun!

His reign on earth begun!

 

The tide of time shall never 

His covenant remove. 
His Name shall stand forever, 

That Name to us is Love.

 

Hail to the Lord’s anointed, 

great David’s greater Son! 
Hail in the time appointed, 

His reign on earth begun!

His reign on earth begun!

O Love that Will Not Let Me Go

 

O Love that will not let me go,

I rest my weary soul in Thee;

I give Thee back the life I owe

That in Thine ocean’s depths its flow

May richer, fuller be.

 

O Light that followest all my way

I yield my flickering torch to Thee,

My heart restores its borrowed ray

That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day

May brighter, fairer be.

 

O Joy that seekest me through pain,

I cannot close my heart to Thee;

I trace the rainbow through the rain

And feel the promise is not vain

That morn shall tearless be

 

O Cross that liftest up my head

I dare not ask to fly from Thee

I lay in dust life’s glory dead,

And from the ground there blossoms red

Life that shall endless be

Worshiping God by Confessing Our Faith

For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age, waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works.  

Titus 2:11-14

All Glory Be To Christ

 

Should nothing of our efforts stand

No legacy survive

Unless the Lord does raise the house

In vain its builders strive

 

To you who boast tomorrow’s gain

Tell me what is your life?

A mist that vanishes at dawn

All glory be to Christ

 

All glory be to Christ our king

All glory be to Christ

His rule and reign we’ll ever sing

All glory be to Christ

His will be done, His kingdom come

On earth as is above

Who is Himself our daily bread

Praise Him, the Lord of love

 

Let living water satisfy

The thirsty without price

We’ll take a cup of kindness yet

All glory be to Christ

 

All glory be to Christ our king

All glory be to Christ

His rule and reign we’ll ever sing

All glory be to Christ

 

When on the day the great I Am

The faithful and the true

The Lamb who was for sinners slain

Is making all things new

 

Behold our God shall live with us

And be our steadfast light

And we shall e're his people be

All glory be to Christ
 

All glory be to Christ our king

All glory be to Christ

His rule and reign we’ll ever sing

All glory be to Christ

Worshiping God by Hearing His Word

Series: Walk This Way

Sermon: Walking in the Light

5 This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.  6 If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.  7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. 8 If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 10 If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.

Jesus, I Come

 

Out of my bondage, sorrow and night, 

Jesus, I come; Jesus I come.
Into Thy freedom, gladness and light,

 Jesus, I come to Thee.


Out of my sickness into Thy health, 

out of my wanting and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.

 

Out of my shameful failure and loss, 

Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.


Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm, 

out of life’s storms and into Thy calm,
Out of distress into jubilant psalm, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.

Out of unrest and arrogant pride, 

Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into Thy blessed will to abide, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.

Out of myself to dwell in Thy love, 

out of despair into raptures above,
Upward forever on wings like a dove, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.

 

Out of the fear and dread of the tomb, 

Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the joy and light of Thy home,

 Jesus, I come to Thee.

 

Out of the depths of ruin untold, 

into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold, 

Jesus, I come to Thee.
