Open now the crystal fountain whence the healing stream doth flow

Let the fiery cloudy pillar lead me all my journey through

Opening Hymn “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God”

A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing

For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe

His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate

On earth is not his equal

Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing

Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us

We will not fear for God hath willed His truth to triumph thru us

The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him

His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure

One little word shall fell him

That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth

The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth

Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also

The body they may kill God's truth abideth still

His kingdom is forever

Amen!

From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head

I will sing of the goodness of God

Chorus

All my life You have been faithful all my life You have been so so good

With every breath that I am able I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice You have led me through the fire

In darkest night You are close like no other

I've known You as a father I've known You as a friend

I have lived in the goodness of God [Chorus]

Your goodness is running after it’s running after me

Your goodness is running after it’s running after me

With my life laid down I’m surrendered now

I give You everything

Your goodness is running after it's running after me

Closing Hymn “Thank You Jesus for the Blood”

I was a wretch I remember who I was I was lost I was blind I was running out of time

Sin separated the breach was far too wide but from the far side of the chasm

You had me in Your sight

So You made a way across the great divide left behind Heaven's throne to build it here inside

There at the cross You paid the debt I owed broke my chains freed my soul

For the first time I had hope

Chorus

Thank You Jesus for the blood applied thank You Jesus it has washed me white

Thank You Jesus You have saved my life brought me from the darkness into glorious light

You took my place laid inside my tomb of sin You were buried for three days

But then You walked right out again and now death has no sting and life has no end

For I have been transformed by the blood of the Lamb [Chorus]

There is nothing stronger than (Oh) the wonder working power

Of the blood the blood

That calls us sons and daughters we are ransomed by our Father

Through the blood the blood(2x’s)[Chorus]

Glory to His name glory to His Name

There to my heart was the blood applied glory to His name

The sun doth its successive journeys run

His kingdom stretch from shore to shore

Till moons shall wax and wane no more

To Him shall endless prayer be made

And praises throng to crown His head

His name like sweet perfume shall rise

With ev'ry morning sacrifice

And all who suffer want are blest

When Jesus reigns

Opening Hymn “God Is Here”

God is here as we His people meet to offer praise and prayer

May we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share

Here as in the world around us all our varied skills and arts

Wait the coming of His Spirit into open minds and hearts

Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace

Here are table font and pulpit here the cross has central place

Here in honesty of preaching here in silence as in speech

Here in newness and renewal God the Spirit comes to each

Here our children find a welcome in the Shepherd’s flock and fold

Here as bread and wine are taken Christ sustains us as of old

Here the servants of the Servant seek in worship to explore

What it means in daily living to believe and to adore

Lord of all of Church and Kingdom in an age of change and doubt

Keep us faithful to the gospel help us work Your purpose out

Here in this day's dedication all we have to give receive

We who cannot live without You we adore You we believe

Amen!

Never cease to worship You

Shout to the Lord all the earth let us sing

Power and majesty praise to the King

Mountains bow down and the seas will roar

At the sound of Your name

I sing for joy at the work of Your hands

Forever I'll love You forever I'll stand

Nothing compares to the promise I have in You

Opening Hymn “There is a Fountain”

There is a fountain filled with blood drawn from Immanuel’s veins

And sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains

Lose all their guilty stains lose all their guilty stains

And sinners plunged beneath that flood lose all their guilty stains

Dear dying Lamb Thy precious blood shall never lose its pow’r

Till all the ransomed church of God are safe to sin no more

Are safe, to sin no more are safe to sin no more

Till all the ransomed church of God are safe to sin no more

E’er since by faith I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply

Redeeming love has been my theme and shall be till I die

And shall be till I die and shall be till I die

Redeeming love has been my theme and shall be till I die

When this poor lisping stamm’ring tongue lies silent in the grave

Then in a nobler sweeter song I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save

I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save I’ll sing Thy pow’r to save

How great is our God sing with me how great is our God

And age to age He stands and time is in His hands

Beginning and the end beginning and the end

Opening Hymn “Lead on O King Eternal”

Lead on O King Eternal the day of march has come

Henceforth in fields of conquest Thy tents shall be our home

Thro' days of preparation Thy grace has made us strong

And now O King eternal we lift our battle song

Lead on O King Eternal till sin's fierce war shall cease

And holiness shall whisper the sweet Amen of peace

For not with swords loud clashing nor roll of stirring drums

With deeds of love and mercy the heav'nly kingdom comes

Lead on O King Eternal we follow not with fears

For gladness breaks like morning where'er Thy face appears

Thy cross is lifted o'er us we journey in its light

The crown awaits the conquest lead on O God of might

What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and griefs to bear

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer

O what peace we often forfeit O what needless pain we bear

All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer

Have we trials and temptations is there trouble anywhere

We should never be discouraged take it to the Lord in prayer

Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share

Jesus knows our every weakness take it to the Lord in prayer

Are we weak and heavy laden cumbered with a load of care

Precious Savior still our refuge take it to the Lord in prayer

Do thy friends despise forsake thee take it to the Lord in prayer

In His arms He'll take and shield thee Thou wilt find a solace there

Sermon My Hope is Found

Closing Hymn “In Christ Alone the Solid Rock”

In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song

This cornerstone, this solid ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace when fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My comforter, my all in all here in the love of Christ, I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ, I live

There in the ground, His body lay light of the world, by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave, He rose again

And as He stands in victory sins curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ!

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand

All other ground is sinking sand! on Christ the Solid Rock I stand

All other ground is sinking sand all other ground is sinking sand!

No guilt in life, no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Here in the power of Christ, I'll stand! here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Opening Hymn “Hosanna Loud Hosanna”

Hosanna loud hosanna the little children sang

Through pillared court and temple the joyful anthem rang

To Jesus who had blessed them close folded to his breast

The children sang their praises the simplest and the best

From Olivet they followed 'mid an exultant crowd

The victor palm-branch waving and chanting clear and loud

The Lord of men and angels rode on in lowly state

Nor scorned that little children should on his bidding wait

Hosanna in the Highest that ancient song we sing

For Christ is our Redeemer the Lord of heaven our King

O may we ever praise him with heart and life and voice

And in his blissful presence eternally rejoice

Eternally rejoice

Opening Hymn “The Church’s One Foundation”

The Church's one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord

She is His new creation by water and the Word

From heav'n He came and sought her to be His holy bride

With His own blood He bought her and for her life He died

Elect from every nation yet one o'er all the earth

Her charter of salvation one Lord one faith one birth

One holy name she blesses partakes one holy food

And to one hope she presses with every grace endued

'Mid toil and tribulation and tumult of her war

She waits the consummation of peace forevermore

Till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest

And the great Church victorious shall be the Church at rest

Yet she on earth hath union with God the Three in One

And mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won

O happy ones and holy Lord give us grace that we

Like them the meek and lowly on high may dwell with Thee

He formed the creatures thru the word and then pronounced them good

Lord how Thy wonders are displayed where'er I turn my eye

If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky

There's not a plant or flower below but makes Thy glories known

And clouds arise And tempests blow by order from Thy throne

While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care

And everywhere that we can be Thou God art present there

Thou God art present there!

Opening Hymn “God Moves in a Mysterious Way”

God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform

He plants His footsteps in the sea and rides upon the storm

Deep in unfathomable mines of never-failing skill

He treasures up His bright designs and works His sovereign will

Chorus

God of mercy God of grace give us eyes to see

Eyes to see Your smiling face within the mystery

Within the mystery

Ye fearful saints fresh courage take the clouds ye so much dread

Are big with mercy and shall break in blessings on your head

Judge not the Lord by feeble sense but trust Him for His grace

Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face [Chorus]

His purposes will ripen fast unfolding every hour

The bud may have a bitter taste but sweet will be the flower

Blind unbelief is sure to err and scan His work in vain

God is His own interpreter and He will make it plain [Chorus]

Closing Hymn “Because He Lives”

God sent His Son they called Him Jesus He came to love heal and forgive

He bled and died to buy my pardon an empty grave is there to prove

My Savior lives

Because He lives I can face tomorrow because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future and life is worth the living

Just because He lives

How sweet to hold our newborn baby and feel the pride and joy he gives

But greater still the calm assurance this child can face uncertain days

Because Christ lives

Because He lives I can face tomorrow because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future and life is worth the living

Just because He lives

And then one day I'll cross that river I'll fight life's final war with pain

And then as death gives way to vict'ry I'll see the lights of glory

And I'll know He reigns

Because He lives I can face tomorrow because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future and life is worth the living

Just because He lives

Opening Hymn “God of Grace and God of Glory”

God of grace and God of glory on Thy people pour Thy power

Crown Thine ancient church's story bring her bud to glorious flower

From the fears that long have bound us free our hearts to faith and praise

Opening Hymn “Come Thou Fount”

Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing tune my heart to sing Thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet sung by flaming tongues above

Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it mount of Thy redeeming love

Here I raise mine Ebenezer hither by Thy help I'm come

And I hope by Thy good pleasure safely to arrive at home

Jesus sought me when a stranger wand'ring from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger interposed His precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be

Let Thy grace Lord like a fetter bind my wand'ring heart to Thee

Prone to wander Lord I feel it prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart Lord take and seal it seal it for Thy courts above

Here's my heart Lord take and seal it

Seal it for Thy courts above

Opening Hymn “Sing Praise to God”

Sing praise to God who reigns above

The God of all creation

The God of power the God of love

The God of our salvation

With healing balm my soul He fills

And every faithless murmur stills

To God all praise and glory

The Lord is never far away

But through all grief distressing

An ever-present help and stay

Our peace and joy and blessing

As with a mother's tender hand

He leads His own His chosen band

To God all praise and glory

Thus all my gladsome way along

I sing aloud Thy praises

That all may hear the grateful song

My voice unwearied raises

Be joyful in the Lord my heart

Both soul and body bear your part

To God all praise and glory

Amen!

Sermon But I Liked it the Way It Was!

Closing Hymn “Victory in Jesus”

I heard an old old story how a Savior came from glory

How He gave His life on Calvary to save a wretch like me

I heard about His groaning of His precious blood's atoning

Then I repented of my sins and won the victory

Chorus

O victory in Jesus my Savior forever

He sought me and bought me with His redeeming blood

He loved me ere I knew Him and all my love is due Him

He plunged me to victory beneath the cleansing flood

I heard about His healing of His cleansing pow'r revealing

How He made the lame to walk again and caused the blind to see

And then I cried dear Jesus come and heal my broken spirit

And somehow Jesus came and brought to me the victory [Chorus]

I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory

And I heard about the streets of gold beyond the crystal sea

About the angels singing and the old redemption story

And some sweet day I'll sing up there the song of victory [Chorus]

Opening Hymn “A Mighty Fortress is Our God”

A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing

For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe

His craft and power are great and armed with cruel hate

On earth is not his equal

Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing

Were not the right man on our side the man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

And though this world with devils filled

Should threaten to undo us we will not fear

For God hath willed His truth to triumph through us

The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him

His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure

One little word shall fell him

That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth

The Spirit and the gifts are ours through Him who with us sideth

Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also

The body they may kill God's truth abideth still

His kingdom is forever

Opening Hymn “O God Our Help in Ages Past”

O God our help in ages past our hope for years to come

Our shelter from the stormy blast and our eternal home

Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure

Sufficient is Thine arm alone and our defense is sure

Before the hills in order stood or earth received her frame

From everlasting Thou art God to endless years the same

A thousand ages in Thy sight are like an evening gone

Short as the watch that ends the night before the rising sun

Time like an ever rolling stream bears all its sons away

They fly forgotten as a dream dies at the op'ning day

Our God our help in ages past our hope for years to come

Be Thou our guard while troubles last and our eternal home

Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed

Where a mother laid her Baby in a manger for His bed

Mary was that mother mild Jesus Christ her little Child

He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all

And His shelter was a stable and His cradle was a stall

With the poor and mean and lowly lived on earth our Savior holy

And our eyes at last will see Him through His own redeeming love

For that Child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heaven above

And He leads His children on to the place where He is gone

Opening Hymn “In the Bleak Midwinter”

In the bleak midwinter frosty wind made moan

Earth stood hard as iron water like a stone

Snow had fallen snow on snow snow on snow

In the bleak midwinter long ago

Our God heav'n cannot hold Him nor earth sustain

Heav'n and earth shall flee away when He comes to reign

In the bleak midwinter a stable place sufficed

The Lord God Almighty Jesus Christ

Angels and archangels may have gathered there

Cherubim and seraphim thronged the air

But His mother only in her maiden bliss

Worshipped the Beloved with a kiss

What can I give Him poor as I am

If I were a shepherd I would bring a lamb

If I were a wise man I would do my part

Yet what can I give Him give my heart

O little town of Bethlehem how still we see thee lie above thy deep and dreamless sleep

The silent stars go by yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above while mortals sleep the angels keep

Their watch of wondering love O morning stars together proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King and peace to men on earth

How silently how silently the wondrous gift is given so God imparts to human hearts

The blessings of His heaven no ear may hear His coming but in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive Him still the dear Christ enters in

O holy Child of Bethlehem descend to us we pray cast out our sin and enter in

Be born in us today we hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell

O come to us abide with us our Lord Emmanuel

Scripture Lesson Luke 2:1-6

Sermon In the Bleak Mid-Tax Season

Closing Hymn “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen”

God rest ye merry gentlemen let nothing you dismay

Remember Christ our Saviour was born on Christmas Day

To save us all from Satan's pow'r when we were gone astray

O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy

From God our heavenly Father a blessed angel came

And unto certain shepherds brought tidings of the same

How that in Bethlehem was born the Son of God by name

O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy

Now to the Lord sing praises all you within this place

And with true love and brotherhood each other now embrace

This holy tide of Christmas all others doth deface

O tidings of comfort and joy comfort and joy O tidings of comfort and joy

Sermon But How!?

Closing Hymn “It Came Upon a Midnight Clear”

It came upon the midnight clear that glorious song of old

From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold

Peace on the earth good will to men from heaven's all gracious King

The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing

Still thro' the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurled

And still their heavenly music floats o'er all the weary world

Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing

And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing

But with the woes of sin and strife the world has suffered long

Beneath the angel-strain have rolled two thousand years of wrong

And man, at war with man, hears not the love-song which they bring

Oh hush the noise, ye men of strife, and hear the angels sing

For lo the days are hastening on by prophet bards foretold

When with the ever-circling years comes round the age of gold

When peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors fling

And the whole world give back the song which now the angels sing

Opening Hymn “And Can it Be”

And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior's blood

Died He for me who caused His pain for me who Him to death pursued

Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God shouldst die for me

Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God shouldst die for me

He left His Father's throne above so free so infinite His grace

Emptied Himself of all but love and bled for Adam's helpless race

'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me

'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me

Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature's night

Thine eye diffused a quickening ray I woke the dungeon flamed with light

My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee

My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee

No condemnation now I dread Jesus and all in Him is mine

Alive in Him my living Head and clothed in righteousness divine

Bold I approach th'eternal throne and claim the crown thru Christ my own

Bold I approach th'eternal throne and claim the crown thru Christ my own

The emblem of suff'ring and shame

And I love that old cross where the dearest and best

For a world of lost sinners was slain

Refrain:

So I'll cherish the old rugged cross till my trophies at last I lay down

I will cling to the old rugged cross and exchange it some day for a crown

O the old rugged cross so despised by the world

Has a wondrous attraction for me

For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above

To bear it to dark Calvary [Refrain]

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true

Its shame and reproach gladly bear

Then He'll call me some day to my home far away

Where His glory forever I'll share [Refrain]

Come ye thankful people come raise the song of harvest-home

All is safely gathered in ere the winter storms begin

God our Maker doth provide for our wants to be supplied

Come to God's own temple come raise the song of harvest-home

All the world is God's own field fruit unto His praise to yield

Wheat and tares together sown unto joy or sorrow grown

First the blade and then the ear then the full corn shall appear

Lord of harvest grant that we wholesome grain and pure may be

For the Lord our God shall come and shall take His harvest home

From His field shall in that day all offenses purge away

Give His angels charge at last in the fire the tares to cast

But the fruitful ears to store in His garner evermore

Even so Lord quickly come to Thy final harvest-home

Gather Thou Thy people in free from sorrow free from sin

There forever purified in Thy presence to abide

Come with all Thine angels come raise the glorious harvest-home

O may this bounteous God through all our life be near us

With ever joyful hearts and blessed peace to cheer us

To keep us in His grace and guide us when perplexed

And free us from all ills of this world in the next

All praise and thanks to God the Father now be given

The one eternal God whom heaven and earth adore

Eternal Father, strong to save whose arm does bind the restless wave,

Who bids the mighty ocean deep its own appointed limits keep;

O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea

O Savior, whose almighty word the winds and waves submissive heard,

Who walked upon the foaming deep, and calm amid the rage did sleep;

O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea

O Holy Spirit, who did brood upon the waters dark and rude,

And bid their angry tumult cease, and give for wild confusion peace;

O hear us when we cry to Thee for those in peril on the sea

O Trinity of love and pow'r, your children shield in danger's hour;

From rock and tempest, fire, and foe, protect them where-so-e'er they go;

Thus, evermore shall rise to Thee glad hymns of praise from land and sea

Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing tune my heart to sing Thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet sung by flaming tongues above

Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it mount of Thy redeeming love

Here I raise mine Ebenezer hither by Thy help I'm come

And I hope by Thy good pleasure safely to arrive at home

Jesus sought me when a stranger wand'ring from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger interposed His precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be

Let Thy grace Lord like a fetter bind my wand'ring heart to Thee

Jesus calls us o'er the tumult of our life's wild, restless sea;

Day by day His sweet voice soundeth, saying, "Christian, follow me."

Jesus calls us from the worship of the vain world's golden store,

From each idol that would keep us, saying, "Christian, love me more."

In our joys and in our sorrows, days of toil and hours of ease,

Still He calls, in cares and pleasures, "Christian, love me more than these."

Give our hearts to Thine obedience, serve and love Thee best of all.

In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song

This cornerstone, this solid ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace when fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My comforter, my all in all here in the love of Christ, I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ, I live

There in the ground, His body lay light of the world, by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave, He rose again

And as He stands in victory sins curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ!

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand

All other ground is sinking sand! on Christ the Solid Rock I stand

All other ground is sinking sand all other ground is sinking sand!

No guilt in life, no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Here in the power of Christ, I'll stand! here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Opening Hymn “I Sing the Mighty Power of God”

I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise

That spread the flowing seas abroad and built the lofty skies

I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day

The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey

I sing the goodness of the Lord that filled the earth with food

He formed the creatures with His word and then pronounced them good

Lord how Thy wonders are displayed where'er I turn my eye

If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky

There's not a plant or flower below but makes Thy glories known

And clouds arise and tempests blow by order from Thy throne

Creatures that borrow life from Thee are subject to Thy care

There's not a place where we can flee but God is present there

Humble for a season to receive a name

From the lips of sinners unto whom He came

Faithfully He bore it spotless to the last

Brought it back victorious when from death He passed

Glory glory hallelujah glory glory hallelujah

Glory glory hallelujah His truth is marching on

I have seen Him in the watchfires of a hundred circling camps

They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps

I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps

His day is marching on [Chorus]

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat

He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat

O be swift my soul to answer Him be jubilant my feet

Opening Hymn “Lead On O King Eternal”

Lead on O King Eternal the day of march has come

Henceforth in fields of conquest thy tents shall be our home

Thro' days of preparation thy grace has made us strong

And now O King eternal we lift our battle song

Lead on O King Eternal till sin's fierce war shall cease

And holiness shall whisper the sweet Amen of peace

For not with swords loud clashing nor roll of stirring drums

With deeds of love and mercy the heav'nly kingdom comes

Lead on O King Eternal we follow not with fears

For gladness breaks like morning where'er Thy face appears

Thy cross is lifted o'er us we journey in its light

The crown awaits the conquest lead on O God of might

I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses

And the voice I hear falling on my ear the Son of God discloses

Chorus

And He walks with me and He talks with me

And He tells me I am His own and the joy we share as we tarry there

None other has ever known

He speaks and the sound of His voice is so sweet the birds hush their singing

And the melody that He gave to me within my heart is ringing [Chorus]

I'd stay in the garden with Him tho' the night around me be falling

But He bids me go thro' the voice of woe his voice to me is calling [Chorus]

Fix in us thy humble dwelling, all thy faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, thou art all compassion, pure, unbounded love thou art.
Visit us with thy salvation; enter every trembling heart.
Come, Almighty, to deliver, let us all thy life receive.
Suddenly return, and never, nevermore thy temples leave.
Thee we would be always blessing, serve thee as thy hosts above,
pray, and praise thee without ceasing, glory in thy perfect love.
Finish, then, thy new creation; true and spotless let us be.
Let us see thy great salvation perfectly restored in thee.
Changed from glory into glory, till in heav’n we take our place,
Till we cast our crowns before thee, lost in wonder, love and praise.

“I Sing the Mighty Power of God”
I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise
That spread the flowing seas abroad and built the lofty skies
I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day
The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey
I sing the goodness of the Lord that filled the earth with food
He formed the creatures with His word and then pronounced them good
Lord how Thy wonders are displayed where'er I turn my eye
If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky
There's not a plant or flower below but makes Thy glories known
And clouds arise And tempests blow by order from Thy throne
Creatures that borrow life from Thee are subject to Thy care

mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing
Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing
For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe
His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate
On earth is not his equal
Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing
Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing
Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He
Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same
And He must win the battle
And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us
We will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph thru us
The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him
His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure
One little word shall fell him
That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth
The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth
Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also
The body they may kill God's truth abideth still
His kingdom is forever

Alas and did my Savior bleed and did my Sov'reign die

Would He devote that sacred head for sinners such as I

Thy body slain sweet Jesus Thine and bathed in its own blood

While all exposed to wrath divine the glorious suff'rer stood

Was it for crimes that I had done He groaned upon the tree

Amazing pity grace unknown and love beyond degree

Well might the sun in darkness hide and shut His glories in

When Christ the mighty Maker died for man the creature's sin

Thus might I hide my blushing face while His dear cross appears

Dissolve my heart in thankfulness and melt my eyes to tears

But drops of grief can ne'er repay the debt of love I owe

Here Lord I give myself away 'Tis all that I can do

Crown Him with many crowns, the Lamb upon His throne

Hark how the heavenly anthem drowns, all music but its own

Awake my soul and sing, of Him who died for thee

And hail Him as thy matchless King through all eternity

Crown Him the Lord of life, who triumphed o’er the grave

And rose victorious in the strife, for those He came to save

His glories now we sing, who died and rose on high

Who died eternal life to bring and lives that death may die

Crown Him the Lord of love, behold His hands and side

Rich wounds yet visible above in beauty glorified

No angel in the sky can fully bear that sight

But downward bends each burning eye at mysteries so bright

Crown Him the Lord of years, the Potentate of time

Scripture Lesson Luke 24:1-12

Sermon Nonsense to Wonder

Closing Hymn “In Christ Alone The Solid Rock”

In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song

This cornerstone, this solid ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace when fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My comforter, my all in all here in the love of Christ, I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ, I live

There in the ground, His body lay light of the world, by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave, He rose again

And as He stands in victory sins curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ!

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand

All other ground is sinking sand! on Christ the Solid Rock I stand

All other ground is sinking sand all other ground is sinking sand!

No guilt in life, no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Here in the power of Christ, I'll stand! here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Opening Hymn
“And Can It Be”
And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior's blood
Died He for me who caused His pain for me who Him to death pursued
Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God shouldst die for me
Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God shouldst die for me
He left His Father's throne above so free so infinite His grace
Emptied Himself of all but love and bled for Adam's helpless race
'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me
'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me
Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature's night
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray I woke the dungeon flamed with light
My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee
My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee
No condemnation now I dread Jesus and all in Him is mine
Alive in Him my living Head and clothed in righteousness divine
Bold I approach th'eternal throne and claim the crown through Christ my own
Bold I approach th'eternal throne and claim the crown through Christ my own

“Amazing Grace”
Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed
Through many dangers toils and snares I have already come
'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home

We've no less days to sing God's praise than when we've first begun

Opening Hymn
“How Deep the Father’s Love For Us”
How deep the Father's love for us how vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son to make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss the Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One bring many sons to glory
Behold the Man upon a cross my sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished
I will not boast in anything no gifts no pow’r no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart His wounds have paid my ransom

“A Mighty Fortress is Our God”
A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing
Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing
For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe
His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate
On earth is not his equal
Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing
Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing
Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He
Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same
And He must win the battle
And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us
We will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph thru us
The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him
His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure
One little word shall fell him
That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth
The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth
Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also
The body they may kill God's truth abideth still
His kingdom is forever

Opening Hymn
“I Sing the Mighty Power of God”
I sing the mighty power of God that made the mountains rise
That spread the flowing seas abroad and built the lofty skies
I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day
The moon shines full at His command and all the stars obey
I sing the goodness of the Lord that filled the earth with food
He formed the creatures with His word and then pronounced them good
Lord how Thy wonders are displayed where'er I turn my eye
If I survey the ground I tread or gaze upon the sky
There's not a plant or flower below but makes Thy glories known
And clouds arise and tempests blow by order from Thy throne
Creatures that borrow life from Thee are subject to Thy care
There's not a place where we can flee but God is present there

And infant voices shall proclaim their early blessings on his name
Let every creature rise and bring His grateful honours to our King

In fields where they lay keeping their sheep on a cold winter's night that was so deep
Chorus
Noel Noel Noel Noel
Born is the King of Israel
They looked up and saw a star shining in the east beyond them far
And to the earth it gave great light snd so it continued both day and night [Chorus]
And by the light of that same star three wise men came from country far
To seek for a king was their intent and to follow the star wherever it went [Chorus]
This star drew nigh to the northwest o'er Bethlehem it took its rest
And there it did both stop and stay right over the place where Jesus lay [Chorus]
Then entered in those wise men three full rev'rently upon the knee
And offered there in His presence their gold and myrrh and frankincense [Chorus]
Then let us all with one accord sing praises to our heavenly Lord
That hath made heaven and earth of naught and with His blood mankind has bought [Chorus]

“O Little Town of Bethlehem”
O little town of Bethlehem how still we see thee lie
Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by
Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light
The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight
For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above
While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love
O morning stars together proclaim the holy birth
And praises sing to God the King and peace to men on earth

How silently how silently the wondrous gift is given
So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heaven
No ear may hear His coming but in this world of sin
Where meek souls will receive Him still the dear Christ enters in
O holy Child of Bethlehem descend to us we pray
Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today
We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell
O come to us abide with us our Lord Emmanuel

O holy night the stars are brightly shining it is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error pining till He appeared and the soul felt its worth
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices for yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices
O night divine O night when Christ was born
O night divine O night O night divine
Truly He taught us to love one another His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother and in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we let all within us praise His holy name
Christ is the Lord then ever ever praise we
His power and glory evermore proclaim
His power and glory evermore proclaim
Fall on your knees O hear the angel voices
O night divine O night when Christ was born
O night divine O night O night divine

Closing Hymn “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear”

It came upon the midnight clear that glorious song of old

From angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold

Peace on the earth good will to men from heaven's all gracious King

The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing

Still thro' the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurled

And still their heavenly music floats o'er all the weary world

Above its sad and lowly plains they bend on hovering wing

And ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing

For lo the days are hastening on by prophet seen of old

When with the ever-circling years shall come the time fortold

When peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors fling

And the whole world send back the song which now the angels sing

Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed

Where a mother laid her Baby in a manger for His bed

Mary was that mother mild Jesus Christ her little Child

And His shelter was a stable and His cradle was a stall

Opening Hymn

“Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing”

Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace

Streams of mercy never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise

Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above

Praise the mount I'm fixed upon it Mount of Thy redeeming love

Here I raise mine Ebenezer Hither by Thy help I'm come

And I hope by Thy good pleasure Safely to arrive at home

Jesus sought me when a stranger Wand'ring from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be

Let Thy grace Lord like a fetter Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee

Prone to wander Lord I feel it Prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart Lord take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above

Opening Hymn

“O God Our Help in Ages Past”

O God our help in ages pas, our hope for years to come

Our shelter from the stormy blast and our eternal home

Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure

Sufficient is Thine arm alone and our defense is sure

Before the hills in order stood or earth received her frame

From everlasting Thou art God to endless years the same

A thousand ages in Thy sight are like an evening gone

Short as the watch that ends the night before the rising sun

Time like an ever rolling stream bears all its sons away

They fly forgotten as a dream dies at the op'ning day

Our God our help in ages past our hope for years to come

Be Thou our guard while troubles last and our eternal home

To this temple where we call Thee come O Lord of Hosts today

With Thy wonted lovingkindness hear Thy people as they pray

And Thy fullest benediction shed within its walls alway

Here vouchsafe to all Thy servants what they ask of Thee to gain

What they gain from Thee forever with the blessed to retain

And hereafter in Thy glory evermore with Thee to reign

Laud and honour to the Father Laud and honour to the Son

Laud and honour to the Spirit ever Three and ever One

One in might and one in glory while unending ages run

“The Church’s One Foundation”

The Church's one foundation is Jesus Christ her Lord

She is His new creation by water and the Word

From heav'n He came and sought her to be His holy bride

With His own blood He bought her and for her life He died

'Mid toil and tribulation and tumult of her war

She waits the consummation of peace forevermore

Till with the vision glorious her longing eyes are blest

And the great Church victorious shall be the Church at rest

Yet she on earth hath union with God the Three in One

And mystic sweet communion with those whose rest is won

O happy ones and holy Lord give us grace that we

Like them the meek and lowly on high may dwell with Thee

“I Love to Tell the Story”

I love to tell the story of unseen things above

Of Jesus and His glory of Jesus and His love

I love to tell the story because I know 'tis true

It satisfies my longings as nothing else can do

Refrain:

I love to tell the story 'Twill be my theme in glory

To tell the old old story of Jesus and His love

I love to tell the story more wonderful it seems

Than all the golden fancies of all our golden dreams

I love to tell the story it did so much for me

And that is just the reason I tell it now to thee [Refrain]

I love to tell the story 'Tis pleasant to repeat

What seems each time I tell it more wonderfully sweet

I love to tell the story for some have never heard

The message of salvation from God's own holy Word [Refrain]

Seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest

And when in scenes of glory I sing the new new song

Opening Hymn

“What a Friend We Have in Jesus”

What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!

O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?

We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?

Jesus knows our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden, cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge--Take it to the Lord in prayer;

Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? take it to the Lord in prayer;

In His arms He'll take and shield thee, thou wilt find a solace there.

Opening Hymn

“Crown Him with Many Crowns”

Crown Him with many crowns, the Lamb upon His throne

Hark how the heavenly anthem drowns, all music but its own

Awake my soul and sing, of Him who died for thee

And hail Him as thy matchless King through all eternity

Crown Him the Lord of life, who triumphed o’er the grave

And rose victorious in the strife, for those He came to save

His glories now we sing, who died and rose on high

Who died eternal life to bring and lives that death may die

Crown Him the Lord of love, behold His hands and side

Rich wounds yet visible above in beauty glorified

No angel in the sky can fully bear that sight

But downward bends each burning eye at mysteries so bright

Crown Him the Lord of years, the Potentate of time

Creator of the rolling spheres ineffably sublime

All hail Redeemer hail for thou hast died for me

Thy praise shall never never fail throughout eternity

Sermon They Went Home

Closing Hymn

“In Christ Alone”

In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song

This cornerstone, this solid ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love, what depths of peace when fears are stilled, when strivings cease

My comforter, my all in all here in the love of Christ, I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ, I live

There in the ground, His body lay light of the world, by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave, He rose again

And as He stands in victory sins curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ!

On Christ the Solid Rock I stand all other ground is sinking sand

All other ground is sinking sand! on Christ the Solid Rock I stand

All other ground is sinking sand all other ground is sinking sand!

No guilt in life, no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

Here in the power of Christ, I'll stand! here in the power of Christ, I'll stand!

People and realms of every tongue dwell on His love with sweetest song

And infant voices shall proclaim their early blessings on His name

Let all God's creatures rise and bring their grateful honours to our King

Angels descend with songs again and earth repeat the loud Amen

Amen!

“Be Still My Soul”

Be still my soul the Lord is on thy side bear patiently the cross of grief or pain

Leave to thy God to order and provide In ev’ry change He faithful will remain

Be still my soul thy best thy heav’nly Friend Through thorny ways leads to a joyful end

Be still my soul thy God doth undertake to guide the future as He has the past

Thy hope thy confidence let nothing shake All now mysterious shall be bright at last

Be still my soul the waves and winds still know His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below

Be still my soul the hour is hast'ning on When we shall be forever with the Lord

When disappointment grief and fear are gone Sorrow forgot love's purest joys restored

Be still my soul when change and tears are past All safe and blessed we shall meet at last

“A Mighty Fortress Is Our God”

A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing

For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe

His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate

On earth is not his equal

Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing

Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us

We will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph thru us

The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him

His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure

One little word shall fell him

That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth

The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth

Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also

The body they may kill God's truth abideth still

His kingdom is forever

Opening Hymn “When Morning Gilds the Skies”

When morning gilds the skies my heart awaking cries

May Jesus Christ be praised alike at work and prayer

To Jesus I repair may Jesus Christ be praised

Does sadness fill my mind a solace here I find

May Jesus Christ be praised or fades my earthly bliss?

My comfort still is this, may Jesus Christ be praised

To God the Word on high the hosts of angel’s cry

May Jesus Christ be praised let mortals too upraise

Their voice in hymns of praise may Jesus Christ be praised

Be this while life is mine my canticle divine

Through all the ages long may Jesus Christ be praised

Opening Hymn “O Worship The King”

O worship the King all glorious above

And gratefully sing His power and His love

Our Shield and Defender the Ancient of Days

Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise

O tell of His might O sing of His grace

Whose robe is the light whose canopy space

His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form

And dark is His path on the wings of the storm

Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite

It breathes in the air it shines in the light

It streams from the hills it descends to the plain

And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain

Frail children of dust and feeble as frail

In Thee do we trust nor find Thee to fail

Thy mercies how tender how firm to the end

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep the silent stars go by

Yet in thy dark streets shineth the everlasting Light

The hopes and fears of all the years are met in thee tonight

For Christ is born of Mary and gathered all above

While mortals sleep the angels keep their watch of wondering love

O morning stars together proclaim the holy birth

And praises sing to God the King and peace to men on earth

How silently how silently the wondrous gift is given

So God imparts to human hearts the blessings of His heaven

No ear may hear His coming but in this world of sin

Where meek souls will receive Him still the dear Christ enters in

O holy Child of Bethlehem descend to us we pray

Cast out our sin and enter in be born in us today

We hear the Christmas angels the great glad tidings tell

O come to us abide with us our Lord Emmanuel

Closing Hymn “It Came Upon The Midnight Clear”

It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old,

from angels bending near the earth to touch their harps of gold:

"Peace on the earth, good will to men, from heaven's all-gracious King."

The world in solemn stillness lay, to hear the angels sing, which now the angels sing.

Still through the cloven skies they come with peaceful wings unfurled,

and still their heavenly music floats o'er all the weary world;

above its sad and lowly plains, they bend on hovering wing,

and ever o'er its Babel sounds the blessed angels sing.

For lo! the days are hastening on, by prophet seen of old,

when with the ever-circling years shall come the time foretold

when peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors fling,

and the whole world send back the song

Opening Hymn “Once in Royal David’s City”

Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed

Where a mother laid her baby in a manger for His bed

Mary was that mother mild Jesus Christ her little child

He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all

And His shelter was a stable and His cradle was a stall

With the poor and meek and lowly lived on earth our Savior holy

And our eyes at last shall see Him through His own redeeming love

For that child so dear and gentle is our Lord in heaven above

It came, a flower bright, amid the cold of winter

When half-gone was the night.

Isaiah 'twas foretold it, the Rose I have in mind:

With Mary we behold it, the virgin mother kind.

To show God's love aright she bore to men a Savior

When half-gone was the night.

This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,

Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere.

True man, yet very God, from sin and death He saves us

They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps

I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps

His day is marching on

He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat

He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment seat

O be swift my soul to answer Him be jublilant my feet

Our God is marching on

With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me

Opening Hymn “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God”

1 A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing

For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe

His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate

On earth is not his equal

2 Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing

Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

3 And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us

We will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph thru us

The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him

His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure

One little word shall fell him

4 That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth

The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth

Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also

The body they may kill God's truth abideth still

His kingdom is forever Amen!

1 Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me

I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see

2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved

How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed

3 The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures

He will my shield and portion bbe as long as life endures

4 Through many dangers toils and snares I have already come

'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far and grace will lead me home

5 When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun

We've no less days to sing God's praise than when we've first begun

Opening Hymn “Sing Praise To God Who Reigns Above”

1 Sing praise to God who reigns above

The God of all creation

The God of power the God of love

The God of our salvation

With healing balm my soul he fills

And every faithless murmur stills

To God all praise and glory

2 The Lord is never far away

But through all grief distressing

An ever-present help and stay

Our peace and joy and blessing

As with a mother's tender hand

He leads his own his chosen band

To God all praise and glory

3 Thus all my gladsome way along

I sing aloud thy praises

That all may hear the grateful song

My voice unwearied raises

Be joyful in the Lord my heart

Both soul and body bear your part

To God all praise and glory

Closing Hymn “At the Name of Jesus”

1 At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow,

every tongue confess him King of glory now;

'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord,

who from the beginning was the mighty Word.

2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight:

all the angel faces, all the hosts of light,

thrones and dominations, stars upon their way,

all the heavenly orders in their great array.

3 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue

all that is not holy, all that is not true.

Look to him, your Savior, in temptations' hour;

let his will enfold you in its light and power.

4 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again,

with his Father's glory o'er the earth to reign;

for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow,

and our hearts confess him King of glory now.

1 All my sins have been forgiven; God is merciful to me;

Faith has claimed the Savior's promise, Grace and pardon, full and free;

O my soul, be ever praising for the great Redeemer's love;

Joyous songs to Him be raising, Unto God in heav'n above.

2 My account is closed forever; Jesus Christ has paid it all;

Shed His blood my sin to cover, Paid the price to save my soul;

There is now no condemnation, I am fully reconciled;

What a wonderful salvation, For a sinner so defiled!

3 How my countless sins depressed me, gave me sorrow, shame and tears,

How His wrath and anger crushed me, filled my heart with doubts and fears;

But my soul cried out in anguish, called for mercy and for grace,

Jesus heard my supplication, Granted pardon and release.

4 Now my soul shall live forever; No more can the Foe condemn;

Nothing from God's love can sever, Peace and joy are found in Him.

Thus I journey on to heaven, Cross death's portals joyfully;

All my sins have been forgiven, God is merciful to me.

till the long shadows o'er our pathway lie,

and a glad sound comes with the setting sun,

That He should give His only Son to make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss the Father turns His face away

As wounds which mar the Chosen One bring many sons to glory

2 Behold the Man upon a cross my sin upon His shoulders

Ashamed I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there until it was accomplished

His dying breath has brought me life I know that it is finished

3 I will not boast in anything no gifts no pow’r no wisdom

But I will boast in Jesus Christ his death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward I cannot give an answer

But this I know with all my heart his wounds have paid my ransom

Wand 'ring from the fold of God

Interposed His precious blood

Let Thy grace Lord like a fetter

Bind my wand 'ring heart to Thee

Prone to leave the God I love

Here's my heart Lord take and seal it

Seal it for Thy courts above

This Cornerstone this solid Ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love what depths of peace when fears are stilled when strivings cease

My Comforter my All in All here in the love of Christ I stand

2 In Christ alone who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ I live

3 There in the ground His body lay light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ

4 No guilt in life no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Died He for me who caused His pain for me who Him to death pursued

Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God should die for me

Amazing love how can it be that Thou my God should die for me

Emptied Himself of all but love and bled for Adam's helpless race

'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me

'Tis mercy all immense and free for O my God it found out me

3 Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature's night

Thine eye diffused a quickening ray I woke the dungeon flamed with light

My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee

My chains fell off my heart was free I rose went forth and followed Thee

Closing Hymn “All My Sins Have Been Forgiven”

1 All my sins have been forgiven; God is merciful to me;

Faith has claimed the Savior's promise, grace and pardon, full and free;

O my soul, be ever praising for the great Redeemer's love;

Joyous songs to Him be raising, unto God in heaven above.

2 My account is closed forever; Jesus Christ has paid it all;

Shed His blood my sin to cover, paid the price to save my soul;

There is now no condemnation, I am fully reconciled;

What a wonderful salvation, for a sinner so defiled!

3 How my countless sins depressed me, gave me sorrow, shame and tears,

How His wrath and anger crushed me, filled my heart with doubts and fears;

But my soul cried out in anguish, called for mercy and for grace,

Jesus heard my supplication, granted pardon and release.

4 And, now I shall live forever; no more can the Foe condemn;

Nothing from God's love can sever, peace and joy are found in Him.

Thus I journey on to heaven, cross death's portals joyfully;

All my sins have been forgiven, God is merciful to me.

Now my soul shall live forever.

1 God is here! As we his people meet to offer praise and prayer,

may we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share:

Here, as in the world around us, all our varied skills and arts

wait the coming of His Spirit into open minds and hearts

2 Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace;

here are table, font and pulpit, here the cross has central place.

Here in honesty of preaching, here in silence, as in speech,

here in newness and renewal God the Spirit comes to each.

3 Lord of all, of Church and Kingdom, in an age of change and doubt,

keep us faithful to the gospel, help us work your purpose out.

For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe

Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He

Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same

And He must win the battle

3 And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us

We will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph thru us

The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him

His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure

One little word shall fell him

4 That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth

1 God sent His Son they called Him Jesus he came to love heal and forgive

He bled and died to buy my pardon an empty grave is there to prove

My Savior lives

Refrain:

Because He lives I can face tomorrow because He lives all fear is gone

Because I know He holds the future and life is worth the living

Just because He lives

2 How sweet to hold our newborn baby and feel the pride and joy he gives

But greater still the calm assurance this child can face uncertain days

Because Christ lives [Refrain]

3 And then one day I'll cross that river I'll fight life's final war with pain

And then as death gives way to vict'ry I'll see the lights of glory

And I'll know He reigns [Refrain]

1 In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light my strength my song

This Cornerstone this solid Ground firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love what depths of peace when fears are stilled when strivings cease

My Comforter my All in All here in the love of Christ I stand

2 In Christ alone who took on flesh fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ I live

3 There in the ground His body lay light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine bought with the precious blood of Christ

4 No guilt in life no fear in death this is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell no scheme of man can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home here in the power of Christ I'll stand

Whom angels greet with anthems sweet, while shepherds watch are keeping? This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary. 2 Why lies he in such mean estate where ox and ass are feeding? Good Christian, fear: for sinners here the silent Word is pleading. This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary. 3 So bring him incense, gold, and myrrh, come, peasant, king, to own him. The King of kings salvation brings, let loving hearts enthrone him. This, this is Christ the King, whom shepherds guard and angels sing: Haste, haste to bring him laud, the babe, the son of Mary.

Opening Hymn: “Once in Royal David’s City”

1 Once in royal David's city stood a lowly cattle shed,

where a mother laid her baby in a manger for his bed:

Mary was that mother mild, Jesus Christ, her little child.

2 He came down to earth from heaven who is God and Lord of all,

and his shelter was a stable, and his cradle was a stall:

with the poor, and mean, and lowly, lived on earth our Saviour holy.

3 For He is our childhood's pattern; Day by day, like us, He grew;

He was little, weak, and helpless, Tears and smiles, like us He knew;

And He cares when we are sad, And he shares when we are glad.

4 And our eyes at last shall see Him, Through His own redeeming love;

For that Child so dear and gentle, Is our Lord in heaven above:

And He leads His children on, To the place where He is gone.

Offering and a Christmas Carol: Away in a Manger

Away in a manger, no crib for a bed, the little Lord Jesus laid down His sweet head.

The stars in the bright sky looked down where he lay, The little Lord Jesus, asleep on the hay.

The cattle are lowing; the baby awakes, but little Lord Jesus, no crying he makes.

I love you, Lord Jesus! Look down from the sky and stay by my side until morning is nigh.

Be near me, Lord Jesus; I ask you to stay Close by me forever, and love me, I pray.

Bless all the dear children in your tender care, and fit us for heaven, to live with you there.

1 O little town of Bethlehem, How still we see thee lie!

Above thy deep and dreamless sleep The silent stars go by;

Yet in thy dark streets shineth The everlasting Light.

The hopes and fears of all the years Are met in thee tonight.

2 For Christ is born of Mary and, gathered all above

While mortals sleep, the angels keep their watch of wond'ring love.

O morning stars, together proclaim the holy birth,

And praises sing to God the King, and peace to men on earth!

3 How silently, how silently The wondrous gift is giv'n!

So God imparts to human hearts The blessings of his heav'n.

No ear may hear his coming, But in this world of sin,

Where meek souls will receive him, still The dear Christ enters in.

4 O holy Child of Bethlehem, Descend to us, we pray;

Cast out our sin and enter in, Be born in us today.

We hear the Christmas angels, The great glad tidings tell;

O come to us, abide with us, Our Lord Immanuel!

This week we look at a story in the third chapter of John. Nicodemus, a member of leadership of San Ysidro, sneaks out one night and seeks out Jesus. Jesus had done an incredible act of clearing the temple. This had caused the city to become frenzied with questions regarding the stranger who had managed this act. Some townsfolk were angry at Him. Some thought He was wonderful. But something about Jesus has piqued Nicodemus’ curiosity.

Let us look at Jesus’ first recorded words.  His parents had been searching for Him and upon finding Him, He asks, “Why did you seek me?  Did you not know I must be about My Father’s business?”
