Lights in a Dark World

12/20/2020

 
CALL TO WORSHIP

PSALM 27:1-8  |  Sing Psalms
The LORD’s my saviour and my light – who will make me dismayed? 

PRAYER

SCRIPTURE READING 
|  Matthew 2: 1-12
​
SERMON  |  “Lights in a Dark World.”  |  Rev Paul Gibson
PRAYER

HYMN 
1 The King of love my shepherd is, 
whose goodness faileth never. 
I nothing lack if I am his, 
and he is mine forever.

2 Where streams of living water flow, 
my ransomed soul he leadeth; 
and where the verdant pastures grow, 
with food celestial feedeth.

3 Perverse and foolish, oft I strayed, 
but yet in love he sought me; 
and on his shoulder gently laid, 
and home, rejoicing, brought me.

4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill, 
with thee, dear Lord, beside me; 
thy rod and staff my comfort still, 
thy cross before to guide me.

5 Thou spreadst a table in my sight; 
thy unction grace bestoweth; 
and oh, what transport of delight 
from thy pure chalice floweth!

6 And so through all the length of days, 
thy goodness faileth never; 
Good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise 
within thy house forever.

BENEDICTION

​Hark The Herald Angels Sing

​1. Hark! The herald angels sing,
 “Glory to the newborn King;
 Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
 God and sinners reconciled!”
 Joyful, all ye nations rise,
 Join the triumph of the skies;
 With th’angelic host proclaim,
 “Christ is born in Bethlehem!”
  Hark! The herald angels sing,
  “Glory to the newborn King!”

 2. Christ, by highest Heav’n adored;
 Christ the everlasting Lord;
 Late in time, behold Him come,
 Offspring of a virgin’s womb.
 Veiled in flesh the Godhead see;
 Hail th’incarnate Deity,
 Pleased as man with man to dwell,
 Jesus our Immanuel.
 Hark! The herald angels sing,
 “Glory to the newborn King!”

 3. Hail the heav’n-born Prince of Peace!
 Hail the Son of Righteousness!
 Light and life to all He brings,
 Ris’n with healing in His wings.
 Mild He lays His glory by,
 Born that man no more may die.
 Born to raise the sons of earth,
 Born to give them second birth.
 Hark! The herald angels sing,
 “Glory to the newborn King!”

    “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.”
    Exodus 20:8-11 ​
