Responsive Scripture Reading Psalm 1:1-6 19

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 20

2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 21

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 22

4 The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 23

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 24

6 For the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish. 25

Rock of Ages Hymn 184

Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; 1st Stanza Rock of ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the water and the blood,

Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure. 1st Stanza continued From Thy wounded side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Save from wrath and make me pure.

Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no languor know, 2nd Stanza Could my tears forever flow, Could my zeal no languor know, These for sin could not atone–

In my hand no price I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling. 2nd Stanza continued Thou must save, and Thou alone: In my hand no price I bring, Simply to Thy cross I cling.

While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, Last Stanza While I draw this fleeting breath, When my eyes shall close in death, When I rise to worlds unknown

Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee. Last Stanza continued And behold Thee on Thy throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee.
