Worship for July 19th, 2020

Here is Sunday’s Video

Sorry the video is sideways!

We are excited to be gathering in our parking lot for worship at 9:00am on Sunday.

There are two files that you can download to print at home and bring with you to worship. One is the order of worship and the second file is the lyrics for the hymns and songs we will be singing. This page will contain all of that information as well, however, we wanted to give you the option to participate via this website while in the parking lot as well as printing from home and coming with your own sheets.

WORDS OF WELCOME

HAPPY DAY

The greatest day in history
Death is beaten You have rescued me
Sing it out Jesus is alive
The empty cross the empty grave
Life eternal You have won the day
Shout it out Jesus is alive
He’s alive

Chorus

And oh happy day happy day
You washed my sin away
Oh happy day happy day
I’ll never be the same
Forever I am changed
(What a glorious glorious day)
(I’ll never be the same)

When I stand in that place
Free at last meeting face to face
I am Yours Jesus You are mine
Endless joy perfect peace
Earthly pain finally will cease
Celebrate Jesus is alive
He’s alive

Bridge

Oh what a glorious day
What a glorious way
That You have saved me
And oh what a glorious day
What a glorious name
Hey

What a glorious glorious day
I’ll never be the same

Opening Litany and Prayer

Come all who are weary
of sickness, of brokenness, of power, of struggle, of division

For He Gathers Us In

Come all who are heavy-laden
with too much, with too little, with anxiety, with fear, with anger

For He Gathers Us In

Come all who have hope
for liberation, for peace, for freedom, for the kingdom

For He Gathers Us In

Prayer

COME YOU THANKFUL PEOPLE, COME

Come, you thankful people, come; 
Raise the song of hardest home.
All is safely gathered in 
Ere the winter storms begin.
God, our maker, does provide 
For our wants to be supplied.
Come to God’s own temple, come,
Raise the song of harvest home

All the world is god’s own field, 
Fruit unto his praise to yield.
Wheat and tares together sown,
Unto joy or sorrow grown.
First the blade, and then the ear,
Then the full corn shall appear.
Lord of harvest, grant that we
Wholesome grain and pure may be.

For the Lord our God shall come
And shall take his harvest home.
From his field shall in that day
All offense purge away,
Give his angels charge at last
In the fire the tares to cast,
But the fruitful ears to store
In his garner ever more.

Even so, Lord, quickly come
To your final harvest home.
Gather all your people in,
Free from sorrow, from from sin,
There, forever purified, 
In your garner to abide.
Come, with all your angels, come,
Raise the glorious harvest home!

The Word of God

Isaiah 44:6-8
Romans 8:18-27

POWER TO REDEEM

You take what is and You make it beautiful
When love floods in we’re restored forevermore

Chorus

With breath that brings the dead to life
With words that pierce the dark with light
Only by the blood are we set free
With mercy strong to carry shame
And nail it to a tree
You alone hold the power to redeem

No guilt competes with innocence crucified
No grave can hold what Your grace has justified

Bridge

(So) Rejoice O child of God
(Oh) Lift your eyes to see
With ev’ry morning light
(Oh) Again we are redeemed

Oh You alone hold the power to redeem
Oh You alone hold the power to redeem

Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43

Sermon

Apostles’ Creed:

I believe in God the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son our Lord. He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit, and born of the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.

Confession

LORD, I NEED YOU

Lord I come I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
And without You I fall apart
You’re the one that guides my heart

Chorus 1

Lord I need You oh I need You
Ev’ry hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Where sin runs deep Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me
Where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

So teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on You
Jesus You’re my hope and stay
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on You
Jesus You’re my hope and stay

Lord I need You oh I need You
Ev’ry hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Closing Prayer/Blessing

O LIVING BREAD FROM HEAVEN

O Living Bread from heaven,
How well you feed your guests!
The gifts that you have given
Have filled my heart with rest.
Oh, wondrous food of blessing, 
Oh, cup that heals our woes!
My heart, this gift possessing,
With praises over flows!

My Lord, you here have led me
Within your holiest place,
And here yourself have fed me
With treasures of your grace;
For you have freely given
What earth could never buy,
The bread of life from heaven,
That now I shall not die.

You gave me all I wanted; 
This food can death destroy.
And you have freely granted
The cup of endless joy.
My Lord, I do not merit
The favor you have shown
And all my soul and spirit
Bow down before your throne.

Lord, grant me then, thus strengthened
With heavenly food, while here
My course on earth is lengthened,
To serve with holy fear.
And when you call my spirit
To leave this world below,
I enter, through your merit,
Where joys unmingled flow

Postlude by Dr. Pat

As you return home, we ask that you pass under the Porte Cochere. It will be a different type of receiving line than we are used to, but Pastor Scott will be there to say goodbye.

Also, as you leave the parking lot there will be a place for you to leave your offering. We can’t say enough how blessed Prince of Peace continues to be by your generous support of our ministries. Thank You!
