Silence

Pause in silence to prepare your heart and become present to God.

Call to Worship

Receive God’s call to worship from his word:

Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD!
O Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my pleas for mercy!
If you, O LORD, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness,
that you may be feared.
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning.

Psalm 130:1-6

Adoration

Sing or say this praise to God:

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.

The Doxology

Confession of Sin

Confess your sin to God:

Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity,
and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
For when I kept silent, my bones wasted away
through my groaning all day long.
For day and night your hand was heavy upon me;
my strength was dried up as by the heat of summer.
I acknowledged my sin to you,
and I did not cover my iniquity;
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,”
and you forgave the iniquity of my sin.

Psalm 32:2-5

Assurance of Grace

Receive the good news of God’s grace for sinners:

And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision
of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us
all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against
us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross.

Colossians 2:13-14

Hymn | Jesus Paid it All

Sing of say this hymn:

I hear the Savior say,
“Your strength indeed is small,
child of weakness, watch and pray,
find in me your all in all.”

Jesus paid it all, all to him I owe;
sin had left a crimson stain,
he washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find
your power, and yours alone,
can change the leper’s spots,
and melt the heart of stone.

For nothing good have I
whereby your grace to claim,
I’ll wash my garments white
in the blood of Calvary’s Lamb.

And when, before the throne,
I stand in him complete,
“Jesus died my soul to save,”
my lips shall still repeat.

Nicene Creed (Part 2)

Affirm what you believe together with the historical church:

And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son;
who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped
and glorified;

who spoke by the prophets;
and we believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church;
we acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins;
and we look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.
Amen.

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation
but deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, and the power,
and the glory, forever.
Amen.
