Worship Guide

Welcome

Call to Worship: Psalm 9:1-2

I will give thanks to the LORD with my whole heart; I will recount all of your wonderful deeds. I will be glad and exult in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.

Lighting the Third Advent Candle

You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see you good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

- Matthew 5:14-16

And We Are Glad by Joseph Pace

Hallelujah You are worthy
Hallelujah You get the highest praise
Hallelujah You are holy
Hallelujah Lord we exalt your Name

For You have done great things
Done great things
For You have done great things

And we are glad
Yes, we are glad
And we are glad
Yes, we are glad

No Other Name by Freddie Rodriguez

Praise the Name above all names,
The One who reigns forever
Still the same, praise the Name
Jesus, Name above all names,
The One who reigns forever
Still the same, praise the Name

No other name that’s higher
No other name that’s stronger
No other name forever
I will praise the name
No other name can heal us
No other name can free us
No other name so precious
Let’s praise the Name

Nombre sobre todo nombre
Reinarás por siempre
Siempre igual exáltale
Cristo sobre todo nombre
Reinarás por siempre
Siempre igual exáltale

Nombre no hay más grande
Nombre no hay más fuerte
Nombre no hay por siempre
Ven exáltale
Nombreno hay que sane
Nombre no hay que salve
Nombre no hay precioso
exáltale

En el cielo y en la tierra
Te proclamaré

Every nation, all creation
We proclaim Your name

Confession of Sin

Heavenly Father, our sins are far beyond what we can bear. Even so, we make light of your sacrifice upon the cross and boast in ourselves. Forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

O Come O Come Emmanuel

O come o come Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel
Who mourns in lowly exile
Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, oh Israel

O come o come thou Lord of might, who to Thy tribes on Sinai’s height
In ancient times did give the law
In cloud, in majesty, and awe

Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, oh Israel

O come Thou dayspring, come and cheer, our spirits by Thine advent here
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night
And death’s dark shadow put to flight

Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, oh Israel

Receive God’s Grace from Romans 8:31-34

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.

Scripture Reading from Galatians 6:11-18

11 See with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand. 12 It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh who would force you to be circumcised, and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. 13 For even those who are circumcised do not themselves keep the law, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may boast in your flesh. 14 But far be it from me to boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. 15 For neither circumcision counts for anything, nor uncircumcision, but a new creation. 16 And as for all who walk by this rule, peace and mercy be upon them, and upon the Israel of God.

17 From now on let no one cause me trouble, for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus.

18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit, brothers. Amen.

Sermon

Blessed Be Your Name by Ashmont Hill

Blessed be Your Name
In the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your Name

Blessed be Your Name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be Your Name

Every blessing You pour out
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be the Name
Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious Name

Blessed be Your Name
When the sun’s shining down on me
When the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be Your Name

Blessed be Your Name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be Your Name

Every blessing You pour out
I’ll turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will say

Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be the Name
Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious Name

You give and take away
You give and take away

You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be Your Name

Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be the Name
Blessed be the Name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious Name

Prayer

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name!
Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts as we also have forgiven our debtors
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
For the kingdom and the power and the glory are yours now and forever
Amen

The Lord’s Supper

Joy to the World

Joy to the world, the Lord is come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven and nature sing
And heaven, 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 the sounding joy
Repeat, repeat the sounding joy

No more let sin and sorrows grow
Nor thorns infest the ground
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found
Far as the curse is found
Far as, far as the curse is found

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 of His love
And wonders, wonders of His love

Benediction

For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.
