CALL TO WORSHIP
PSALM 16:1-11 | Sing Psalms Protect me, O my God; you are my refuge true. I said, “You are my Lord: I have no good apart from you.” The godly in the land, for holiness renowned-- They are the glorious ones, in whom all my delight is found. Their sorrows will increase who on false gods rely. I will not sacrifice to them; their worship I defy. O LORD, you are to me my cup and portion sure; The share that is assigned to me you guard and keep secure. The land allotted me is in a pleasant site; And surely my inheritance to me is a delight. I’ll praise the LORD my God, whose counsel guides my choice; And even in the night, my heart recalls instruction’s voice. Before me constantly I set the LORD alone. Because he is at my right hand I’ll not be overthrown. Therefore my heart is glad; my tongue with joy will sing. My body too will rest secure in hope unwavering. For you will not allow my soul in death to stay, Nor will you leave your Holy One to see the tomb’s decay. You have made known to me the path of life divine. Bliss shall I know at your right hand; joy from your face will shine. PRAYER SCRIPTURE READING | Isaiah 53:10-12, Luke 23:32-43 SERMON | Rev Paul Gibson
PRAYER
HYMN | Thine be the glory Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son; endless is the victory, thou o'er death hast won; angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away, kept the folded grave clothes where thy body lay. Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son, Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won. Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb; Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom; let the Church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing; for her Lord now liveth, death hath lost its sting. Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son, Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won. No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life; life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife; make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love: bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above. Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son, Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won. BENEDICTION |
“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a sabbath to the LORD your God…For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy.” Archives
