Opening Hymn
“Revive Us Again” (Celeb Hymnal)

1 We praise thee, O God, for the Son of thy love,
for Jesus who died, and is now gone above.

Refrain:
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, hallelujah! Amen!
Hallelujah! Thine the glory, revive us again.

2 We praise thee, O God, for thy Spirit of light
who has shown us our Savior and scattered our night.

[Refrain]

3 Revive us again, fill each heart with thy love.
May each soul be rekindled with fire from above. [Refrain]

Affirmation of Faith
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.

I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
born of the Virgin Mary,
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again;
he ascended into heaven,
is seated at the right hand of the Father,
and 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.

Gloria Patri
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost.
As it was in the beginning is now and ever shall be world without end. Amen.

Doxology
O bless the gifts our hands have brought
And bless the work our hearts have planned.
Ours is the faith, the will, the thought.
The rest, O God, is in your hand.

Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who are in heaven, hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever. Amen.

Closing Hymn
“O Love That Will Not Let Me Go”

1 O Love that will not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee.
I give thee back the life I owe,
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer, fuller be.

2 O Light that follows all my way,
I yield my flick’ring torch to thee.
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
that in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
may brighter, fairer be.

3 O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee.
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
and feel the promise is not vain,
that morn shall tearless be.

4 O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee.
I lay in dust, life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red,
life that shall endless be.

CONTEMPORARY WORSHIP

“Lay Me Down
Chris Tomlin

With this heart open wide, from the depths from the heights
I will bring a sacrifice
With these hands lifted high, hear my song hear my cry
I will bring a sacrifice, I will bring a sacrifice

I lay me down, I’m not my own
I belong to you alone
Lay me down, Lay me down
Oh, hand on my heart, this much is true
There’s no life apart from you
Lay me down, Lay me down

Letting go of my pride, giving up all my rights
Take this life and let it shine, shine, shine
Take this life and let it shine

I lay me down, I’m not my own
I belong to you alone
Lay me down, Lay me down
Oh, hand on my heart, this much is true
There’s no life apart from you
Lay me down, Lay me down

It will be my joy to say, your will, your way
It will be my joy to say, your will, your way
It will be my joy to say, your will, your way, always

It will be my joy to say, your will, your way
It will be my joy to say, your will, your way
It will be my joy to say, your will, your way, always

 I lay me down, I’m not my own
I belong to you alone
Lay me down, Lay me down
Oh, hand on my heart, this much is true
There’s no life apart from you
Lay me down, Lay me down

Response to the Word
“God of Wonders”
Marc Byrd and Steve Hindalong

Lord of all creation, Lord of water, earth and sky
The heavens are your Tabernacle, glory to the Lord on high!

(Chorus) And god of wonders beyond our galaxy, you are holy, holy
The universe declares your majesty, you are holy, holy
Lord of heaven and earth, Lord of heaven and earth

So early in the morning I will celebrate the light
As I stumble in the darkness, I will call your name by night

(Chorus)

Hallelujah! To the Lord of heaven and earth
Hallelujah! To the Lord of heaven and earth
Hallelujah! To the Lord of heaven and earth

(Chorus)

Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who are in heaven, hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation; but deliver use rom evil.
For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever. Amen.

“Blessed Be Your Name”
Matt Redman and Beth Redman

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 Your 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’ll say

Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your glorious name

You give and take away, you give and take away
My heart will choose to say, Lord blessed be Your name
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 Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord, blessed be Your glorious name
