The Call To Worship

Our Great God

Leader: We have gathered in the name

of the Father, the Son, and the Holy
Spirit to offer up a sacrifice of praise!

~ Psalm 100 ~

Eternal God, unchanging

Mysterious and unknown
Your boundless love unfailing
In grace and mercy shown
Bright seraphim in ceaseless flight
Around your glorious throne
They raise their voices day and night
In praise to You alone

Leader: Shout for joy to the Lord all the

earth. Worship the Lord with gladness;
come before Him with joyful songs.
Know that the Lord is God.

chorus
Hallelujah! Glory be to our great God
Hallelujah! Glory be to our great God

Unison: It is He who made us and we

are His; we are His people, the sheep of
His pasture.

Lord, we are weak and frail

Helpless in the storm
Surround us with Your angels
Hold us in Your arms
Our cold and ruthless enemy
His pleasure is our harm
Rise up, O Lord, and he will flee
Before our sovereign God

Unison: May His great Name be praised

forever.

Leader: Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give
thanks to Him and praise His name.
Unison: For the Lord is good, and His
love endures forever; His faithfulness
continues through all generations.

Prayer Of Adoration
Songs Of Praise & Worship
Majestic
O Lord, our Lord
How majestic is
Your name in all the earth
O Lord, our Lord
How majestic is
Your name inall the earth
chorus
The heavens declare
Your greatness
The oceans cry out to You
The mountains
They bow down before You
So I'll join with the earth
And I'll give my praise to You

(repeat chorus)
Let every creature in the sea
And every flying bird
Let every mountain, every field
And valley of the earth
Let all the moons and all the stars
In all the universe
Sing praises to the living God
Who rules them by His word
(repeat chorus)

God Graciously
Renews Us In
Christ

Call To Repentance &

Renewal
~ Psalm 139:23-24 ~
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my thoughts. Point out
anything in me that offends you, and
lead me in the path of everlasting life.

Song Of Confession
Lord, Have Mercy
Jesus Ive forgotten
The words that You have spoken
Promises that burned within my heart
Have now grown dim
With a doubting heart I follow
The paths of earthly wisdom
Forgive me for my unbelief
Renew the fire again
chorus
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
(repeat)
I have built an altar
Where Ive worshipped things of man
I have taken journeys
That have drawn me far from You
Now I am returning
To Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
Help me love You again
(repeat chorus)
I have longed to know You
And all Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness
Ever flowing without end
So I bow my heart before You
In the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
Like a beacon in the night
(repeat chorus)

The Words Of The Gospel

~ based on 1 Timothy 1:15 &
1 Peter 2:24 ~
Leader: Hear the Good News: This
saying is sure and worthy of full
acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into
the world to save sinners. He Himself
bore our sins in His body on the cross,
that we might be dead to sin and alive to
all that is good.

Hearing these comforting words, if you

sincerely turn from your sins by turning
in trust to the Lord Jesus Christ who
came to save sinners, I declare to you in
the Name of Jesus Christ that you are
indeed forgiven!

Song Of Response
Completely Done
What reason have I to doubt
Why would I dwell in fear
When all I have known is grace
My future in Christ is clear
My sins have been paid in full
There's no condemnation here
I live in the good of this
My Father has brought me near
I'm leaving my fears behind me now

Presentation Of Our Tithes

& Offerings
Song Of Preparation
All Hail the Power of Jesus Name
All hail the power of Jesus name
Let angels prostrate fall
Bring forth the royal diadem
And crown Him Lord of all
Ye chosen seed of Israels race
Ye ransomed of the fall
Hail Him who saves you by His grace
And crown Him Lord of all
Let evry kindred, evry tribe
On this terrestrial ball
To Him all majesty ascribe
And crown Him Lord of all

chorus
The old is gone, the new has come
What You complete is completely done
We're heirs with Christ, the victory won
What You complete is completely done

O with that yonder sacred throng

We at His feet may fall
Well join the everlasting song
And crown Him Lord of all

I don't know what lies ahead

What if I fail again
You are my confidence
You'll keep me to the end
I'm leaving my fears behind me now

God Gives Us
His Words
Of Eternal Life

(repeat chorus)

God Receives
Our Offerings

Unison: Our Father in Heaven, hallowed be your name. Your Kingdom come,
Your will be done, on earth as it is in
heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread, and
forgive us our debts as we also have
forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into
temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power, and the
glory are yours, now and forever. Amen.

(repeat chorus)
Now the daylight flees
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head
Curtain torn in two
Dead are raised to life
"Finished!" the vict'ry cry
(repeat chorus)
Oh, to see my name
Written in the wounds
For through Your suffering I am free
Death is crushed to death
Life is mine to live
Won through Your selfless love
final chorus
This, the power of the cross
Son of Godslain for us
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross
Man Of Sorrows

The Lords Love for Lepers

Man of sorrows, Lamb of God

By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid

Rev. David Fletcher

Leader: Let us pray.

Oh, to see the pain

Written on Your face
Bearing the awesome weight of sin
Every bitter thought
Every evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow

Todays Scripture Lesson:

Luke 5:12-16

The Prayers Of The People

For The Church And City

chorus
This, the power of the cross
Christ became sin for us
Took the blame, bore the wrath
We stand forgiven at the cross

God Feeds Us His

Covenant Meal
Songs For Communion
The Power of the Cross
Oh, to see the dawn
Of the darkest day
Christ on the road to Calvary
Tried by sinful men
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood

Silent as He stood accused

Beaten, mocked, and scorned
Bowing to the Father's will
He took a crown of thorns
chorus
Oh, that rugged cross, my salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out, hallelujah
Praise and honour unto Thee
Sent of heaven, God's own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
(repeat chorus)

bridge
Now, my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Now, the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
(repeat)

Thanks For
Joining Us For
Worship Today

~ The Apostles Creed ~

Leader: Christians, in whom do you
believe?
Unison: We believe in God the Father
Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.
And we believe in Jesus Christ, His
only Son our Lord, who was conceived
by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin
Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, dead, and buried; He
descended into hell. The third day He
rose again from the dead. He ascended
to heaven and is seated at the right hand
of God the Father Almighty. From there
He will come to judge the living and the
dead.
And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the
Holy catholic church, the communion of
saints, the forgiveness of sins, the
resurrection of the body, and the life
everlasting. Amen.
