11. The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims His handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.

12. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard
There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tent for the sun.

Joy to the world! The Lord is come;
Let earth receive her King.
Let every heart, prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing,

Joy to the world! The Savior reigns;
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods,
rocks, hills and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat,
Repeat the sounding joy.

16. (3)
No more let sin and sorrow grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground.
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as,
far as the curse is found.

17. (4)
He rules the world
with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness
And wonders of His love,
And wonders,
wonders of His love.

19. Congregational Prayer of Confession
ALL: Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your steadfast love.
My sin has been against You,
although others have been hurt as well.
It is against You that I have rebelled.
It is against You that I have been angry
and yet it is to You that I cry for mercy!

20. Even with my best intentions sin seems ever to creep in
Even with my best intentions sin seems ever to creep in. Even with my firmest resolve I keep on sinning. Wash me, that I be clean, fresh, and new. Cleanse me, that I have integrity, that I do right from inside out.

21. Purge me, that I be pure with a strong purity
Purge me, that I be pure with a strong purity. In the name of Christ deliver me, O God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing aloud of Your deliverance.

23. ASSURANCE OF PARDON
(John 15.5, 8)
Minister: I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in Me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be
My disciples.

30. We Are God’s People hymn 399 contemplation

31. We are God’s people, the chosen of the Lord, Born of His Spirit, established by His Word. Our cornerstone is Christ alone, and strong in Him we stand; O let us live transparently, And walk heart to heart and hand in hand

32. We are God’s loved ones, the bride of Christ our Lord, For we have known it, the love of God out-poured. Now let us learn how to return the gift of love once given; O let us share each joy and care, And live with a zeal that pleases heaven.

33. We are the Body of which the Lord is Head, Called to obey Him, now risen from the dead. He wills us to be family, Diverse yet truly one; O let us give our gifts to God, And so shall His work on earth be done.

34. THE DOXOLOGY PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW; PRAISE HIM ALL CREATURES HERE BELOW; PRAISE HIM ABOVE YE HEAVENLY HOST; PRAISE FATHER, SON AND HOLY GHOST. AMEN

To crown Him again
King forever
Ceasing never
Over us all to reign

Sorrowing sighing
Bleeding dying
Sealed in
The stone cold tomb

Westward leading
Still proceeding
Guide us to thy
Perfect light
