The wind blows over it and it is gone.

GREAT IS
THY FAITHFULNESS

10. (1a)
Great is Thy faithfulness,
O God my Father;
There is no shadow
of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not,
Thy compassions,
they fail not;
As Thou hast been
Thou forever will be.

11. (1b)
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
new mercies I see;
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord, unto me!

12. (2a)
Summer and winter
and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars
in their courses above
Join with all nature
in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness,
mercy and love.

13. (2b)
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
new mercies I see;
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord, unto me!

14. (3a)
Pardon for sin
and a peace that endureth;
Thy own dear presence
to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today
and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine,
with ten thousand beside!

15. (3b)
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
new mercies I see;
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided;
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord, unto me!

16. THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
SILENT PRAYERS OF
THANKSGIVING AND CONFESSION
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
1 Timothy 3:16
Great, indeed, is the mystery of our faith: Christ was revealed to us in human flesh, authenticated by the Spirit, watched by angels, proclaimed to the nations, believed in throughout the world, and taken up to heaven.

17. THE FAMILY OF GOD
#419
I’m so glad I’m a part
of the family of God;
I’ve been washed in the fountain,
Cleansed by His blood!
Joint heirs with Jesus
as we travel this sod;
For I’m part of the family,
the family of God (Repeat)

19. A TIME OF SHARING WITH
GOD’S CHILDREN
OF ALL AGES

20. THE HOLY SCRIPTURE Philippians 4:4-13
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

21. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me,
or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.
 I (Paul) rejoiced greatly in the Lord that at last you renewed your concern for me. Indeed, you were concerned, but you had no opportunity to show it.

22. I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through Christ who gives me strength.

‘FOOTSTEPS OF JESUS’
(1a)
Sweetly, Lord,
Have we heard You calling,
Come, follow Me!
And we see
Where Your footprints falling
Lead us to You.

24. (1b)
Footprints of Jesus,
That make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus
Where’er they go.

25. (2a)
Though they lead
To the cold, dark mountains,
Seeking His sheep;
Or along
By the welcome fountains,
Helping the weak.

26. (2b)
Footprints of Jesus,
That make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus
Where’er they go.

27. (3a)
If they lead
Through the temple holy,
Preaching the Word;
Or in homes
Of the poor and lowly,
Serving the Lord.

28. (3b)
Footprints of Jesus,
That make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus
Where’er they go.

29. (4a)
Then, at last,
When on high He sees us,
Our journey done,
We will rest
Where the steps of Jesus
End at His throne.

30. (4b)
Footprints of Jesus,
That make the pathway glow;
We will follow the steps of Jesus
Where’er they go.

Open my eyes,
that I may see Glimpses of truth
You have for me; Place in my hands
the wonderful key that shall unclasp
and set me free.

44. (1b)
Silently now
I wait for Thee, Ready my God,
Your will to see, Open my eyes,
illumine me, Spirit divine!

Open my ears,
that I may hear Voices of truth
You send so clear; And while the wave notes
fall on my ear, Everything false
will disappear.

Silently now
I wait for Thee, Ready my God,
Your will to see, Open my eyes,
illumine me, Spirit divine!

Open my mouth,
and let me bear, Gladly the warm truth
everywhere; Open my heart
and let me prepare Love with Your children
thus to share.

I wait for Thee, Ready my God,
Your will to see, Open my eyes,
illumine me, Spirit divine!
