June 7, 2020
Below, you’ll find the song lyrics and scripture readings for the live stream on June 7th (in the order they are needed), as well as some resources for kids! (this includes some stuff that is print-able—if you need Taylor to print stuff for you in the future, just let us know, and we’ll get that set up).
O Love That Will Not Let Me Go
o love that will not let me go
I rest my weary soul in thee
I give you back the life I owe
that in thine ocean depths its flow
may richer fuller be
o light that follows all my ways
I lift my flickering torch to thee
my heart restores it borrowed ray
that in thy sunshine’s blaze it day
may brighter fairer be
o joy that seeks me through the pain
I cannot close my heart to thee
i’ll trace the rainbow through the rain
and feel the promise is not in vain
that morn shall tearless be
o love, don’t let go of me
o light, hold my flickering
o joy, don’t lose sight of me
o love, don’t let go of me
o cross that’s lifting up my head
I dare not ask to fly from thee
though I lay in dust, life’s glory dead,
from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be
endlessly, endless be, endlessly
Call to Worship
We have gathered to worship the Creator and Sustainer of all things,
The Eternal One,
the Rock of Ages,
the God who sees
to be drawn into the way of Christ
The Word-made-flesh,
The Crucified God,
The Risen One
to be formed in heart and mind by the Spirit of God
The Breath of Life
Who is making
all things new
Amen
All Creatures of Our God and King
all creatures of our god and king
lift up your voice and with us sing
o praise him, alleluia
thou burning sun with golden beam
thou silver moon with softer gleam
o praise him, o praise him
alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
thou rushing wind, that art so strong
ye clouds that sail in heaven along
o praise him, alleluia
thou rising moon in praise rejoice
ye, lights of evening, find a voice
o praise him, o praise him
alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
let all things their creator bless
and worship him in humbleness
o praise him, alleluia
praise, praise the father, praise the son
and praise the spirit, three in one
o praise him, o praise him
alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Old Testament Reading
Today’s Old Testament reading is Psalm 8:
O Lord, our Governor,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
Out of the mouths of babes and infants
you have founded a bulwark because of your foes,
to silence the enemy and the avenger.
When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars that you have established;
what are human beings that you are mindful of them,
mortals that you care for them?
Yet you have made them a little lower than God,
and crowned them with glory and honor.
You have given them dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under their feet,
all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
O Lord, our Governor,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
This is the word of the Lord
Thanks be to God
New Testament Reading
Today’s New Testament reading, and Josh’s sermon text, is Matthew 28:16-20:
The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”
This is the Word of the Lord
Thanks be to God
Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy
Lord God almighty
early in the morning our song shall rise to thee
Holy, Holy, Holy
Merciful and mighty
God in three persons, blessed Trinity
Holy, holy, holy
though the darkness hide thee
though the eye of sinful man
thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy;
there is none beside Thee
Perfect in power, love, and purity
Holy, holy, holy,
Lord God almighty
All thy works shall praise Thy name
in earth and sky and sea
Holy, holy, holy
merciful and mighty
God in three persons
blessed trinity,
god in three persons,
blessed trinity
Doxology
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
Benediction
As we approach this week
May we love God
Embrace Beauty
and Live Life to the fullest
Amen
