Hymn: “Bless the Lord” by Matt Redman Bless the Lord oh my soul, Oh my soul Worship His Holy name Sing like never before, Oh my soul I'll worship Your Holy name

The sun comes up It's a new day dawning It's time to sing Your song again Whatever may pass And whatever lies before me Let me be singing When the evening comes

Bless the Lord oh my soul, Oh my soul Worship His Holy name Sing like never before, Oh my soul I'll worship Your Holy name

You're rich in love And You're slow to anger Your name is great And Your heart is kind For all Your goodness I will keep on singing Ten thousand reasons For my heart to find

Bless the Lord oh my soul, Oh my soul Worship His Holy name Sing like never before, Oh my soul I'll worship Your Holy name

And on that day When my strength is failing The end draws near And my time has come Still my soul will Sing Your praise unending Ten thousand years And then forevermore Forevermore

Bless the Lord oh my soul, Oh my soul Worship His Holy name Sing like never before, Oh my soul I'll worship Your Holy name Jesus I will worship Your Holy name Worship Your Holy name

Thanks be to God. WORD First Readings: 55:1-3a and Psalm 63: 1-8 Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church. Thanks be to God.

Psalm 63: 1-8 (read in Tagalog) O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on your name. My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast, and my mouth praises you with joyful lips when I think of you on my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.

Sermon: Paul Scott Wilson “Joy is Grace Recognized”

O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.

So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

So I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on your name. My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast, and my mouth praises you with joyful lips.

I think of you on my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.

“It is Well With My Soul” words: Horatio Spafford music: Philip Bliss 1. When peace like a river, attendeth my way, When sorrows like sea billows roll Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say It is well, it is well, with my soul   Chorus: It is well (it is well) With my soul (with my soul) It is well, it is well with my soul

2. For me, be it Christ, be it Christ hence to live: If Jordan above me shall roll, No pang shall be mine, for in death as in life Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul. Chorus: It is well (it is well) With my soul (with my soul) It is well, it is well with my soul

3. But, Lord, ’tis for Thee, for Thy coming we wait, The sky, not the grave, is our goal; Oh, trump of the angel! Oh, voice of the Lord! Blessed hope, blessed rest of my soul! Chorus: It is well (it is well) With my soul (with my soul) It is well, it is well with my soul
