Worship Service for May 26, 2024

Updated: May 26

Welcome

 

Call to Worship

Praise the Lord!

Sing to the Lord a new song,And His praise in the assembly of saints.

Psalm 149:1

 

Hymn # 164 O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing

 

1 O for a thousand tongues to sing

my great Redeemer's praise,

the glories of my God and King,

the triumphs of his grace.


2 My gracious Master and my God,

assist me to proclaim,

to spread through all the earth abroad

the honors of thy name.


3 Jesus, the name that charms our fears,

that bids our sorrows cease;

'tis music in the sinner's ears,

'tis life and health and peace.


4 He breaks the pow'r of reigning sin,

he sets the pris'ner free;

his blood can make the foulest clean,

his blood availed for me.


5 He speaks and, list'ning to his voice,

new life the dead receive;

the mournful, broken hearts rejoice;

the humble poor believe.


6 Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,

your loosen'd tongues employ;

ye blind, behold your Savior come;

and leap, ye lame, for joy. 

 

Call To Confession

 

Our Lord Jesus says, ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ And also, ‘Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.’

 

"If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us... If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” Let us, therefore, confess ours sins to the Lord, saying together:

1 John 1:8 (NKJV)

Confession of Sins

 

Almighty and Gracious Father, we confess to you that we have sinned by not loving you with our whole heart and by not loving our neighbor as ourselves. Our faith is weak, and we easily give in to doubt. Forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness in thought, word and deed. For we ask this in the name of your Son, who is our sure Redeemer and our Savior. Amen.

 

Word of Assurance

 

Brothers and Sisters in Jesus, our Gracious Heavenly Father has forgiven us our sins according to His word that "He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins."

Colossians 1:13–14

 

Doxology # 731

 

Praise God from whom all blessings flow;

praise him, all creatures here below;

praise him above, ye heav'nly host;

praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

 

Scripture Lesson: Philippians 4:1

 

Therefore, my beloved and longed-for brethren, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, beloved.

 

Sermon

 

Hymn # 577 Stand Up, My Soul; Shake Off Your Fears

1 Stand up, my soul; shake off your fears,

and gird the gospel armor on;

march to the gates of endless joy,

where your great Captain Savior's gone.


2 Hell and your sins resist your course;

but hell and sin are vanquished foes:

your Jesus nailed them to the cross,

and sang the triumph when he rose.


3 Then let my soul march boldly on,

press forward to the heav'nly gate;

there peace and joy eternal reign,

and glitt'ring robes for conqu'rors wait.


4 There shall I wear a starry crown,

and triumph in almighty grace;

while all the armies of the skies

join in my glorious Leader's praise.


Prayer of the Church with the Lord’s Prayer

 

Let us pray together as Jesus taught us:

 

“Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power and the glory forever. Amen.”

 

Hymn # 677 Praise the Savior, Ye Who Know Him!

1 Praise the Savior, ye who know him!

Who can tell how much we owe him?

Gladly let us render to him

All we are and have.


2 Jesus is the name that charms us,

he for conflict fits and arms us;

nothing moves and nothing harms us

while we trust in him.


3 Trust in him, ye saints, forever,

he is faithful, changing never;

neither force nor guile can sever

those he loves from him.


4 Keep us, Lord, O keep us cleaving

to thyself and still believing,

till the hour of our receiving

promised joys with thee.


5 Then we shall be where we would be,

then we shall be what we should be;

things that are not now, nor could be,

soon shall be our own.


Benediction
