Welcome to Worship this morning. We are so glad that you have joined us–in our parking lot, live on facebook, or via the video below posted after worship. Today, we hear two powerful stories and the path that we are called to walk: the path of forgiveness. Come, let us worship the Lord.
Words of Welcome
Thine the Amen, Thine the Praise
Thine the amen
thine the praise
Alleluias angels raise
Thine the ever lasting head
Thine the breaking of the bread
Thine the glory thine the story
Thine the harvest then the cup
Thine the vineyard then the cup
is lifted up lifted up
Thine the life eternally
Thine the promise let there be
Thine the vision thine the tree
All the ears on bended knee
Gone the nailing gone the railing
Gone the pleading gone the cry
Gone the sighing gone the dying
What was loss lifted high
Thine the truly thine the yes
Thine the table we the guest
Thine the mercy all from thee
Thine the glory yet to be
Then the ringing and the singing
Then the end of all the war
Thine the living thine the loving
Evermore evermore
Thine the kingdom thine the prize
Thine the wonder full surprise
Thine the banquet then the praise
Then the justice of thy ways
Thine the glory thine the story
Then the welcome to the least
Then the wonderful all increasing
At thy feast at thy feast
Thine the glory in the night
No more dying only light
Thine the river thine the tree
Then the Lamb eternally
Then the holy holy holy
celebration jubilee
Thine the splendor thine the brightness
Only thee only thee
Call to Worship
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world:
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world,
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sin of the world;
have mercy on us and grant us peace.
Prayer
You Will Never Run Away
You will never run away
You’re forever mine
You will never run away You’re by my side
Verse 1
Love wide as galaxies
love deeper than the sea
Countless as all infinity
Love like a shooting star
tearing apart the dark
Shining for all eternity
Shining for all eternity
Verse 2
Love stronger than the grave
Love rolled the stone away
Rising with endless majesty
Love takes us by the hand
Love is the wildest dance
You are the joy and fight in me
You are the joy and fight in me
Hearts open wide hands lifted high
Over the clouds up into the blue sky
Hearts open wide hands lifted high
Over the clouds up into the blue sky
Genesis 50:15-21
Holy Water
God I’m on my knees again
God I’m begging please again
I need You
Oh I need You
Walking down these desert roads
Water for my thirsty soul
I need You
Oh I need You
Chorus
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
Like holy water (on my skin)
Verse 2
Dead man walking slave to sin
I wanna know about being born again
I need You
Oh God I need You
So take me to the riverside
Take me under baptize
I need You
Oh God I need You oh
Bridge
I don’t wanna abuse Your grace
God I need it ev’ry day
It’s the only thing that ever really
Makes me wanna change
Matthew 18:21-35
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
Verse 2
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
Bridge
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
Chorus 2
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
Communion
Benediction
Precious Lord, Take My Hand
Precious Lord, take my hand,
Lead me on, let me stand
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn.
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home
When my way grows drear,
Precious Lord, linger near,
When my life is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call,
hold my hand lest I fall
Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home
When the darkness appears
And the night draws near,
And the day is past and gone,
At the river I stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand
Take my hand, precious Lord, lead me home
Thanks for Joining us for Worship!
