Sunday Morning Service - 1st June 2008

Welcome

O for a thousand tongues to sing
my great Redeemer's praise,
the glories of my God and King,
the triumphs of His grace!

Jesus, the name that calms our fears
and bids our sorrows cease;
this music in the sinner's ears
is life and health and peace.

He breaks the power of cancelled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean,
His blood availed for me.

He speaks; and, listening to His voice,
new life the dead receive,
the mournful broken hearts rejoice,
the humble poor believe.

My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim
and spread through all the earth abroad
the honours of Your name.

Prayer

How rich and deep God's judgements are,
His knowledge, how profound!
Who understands the path He takes?
His wisdom, who can sound?
If we should try to guide His thoughts
no counsel could we find
to offer the all-seeing One
who forms both heart and mind.

And who can give Him anything
which He must then repay,
or charge a debt to His account
against the judgement day?
Eternal glory and renown
shall evermore be His –
the Source of all created things,
the End of all that is!

And yet our living sacrifice
this awesome God desires:
our mortal bodies, yielded up,
to serve as He requires!
Such giving is a sacred act,
such worship, pure and right:
the best response of thankful hearts,
and pleasing in His sight.

Then by His all-surpassing power
our minds He will transform
to see this world's ungodly ways
no longer as the norm;
for hearts and lives renewed by grace
at last can truly learn
God's good and pleasing will to prove,
His judgements to discern.

Bible reading - Ecclesiastes 5:1-7

There is a higher throne
than all this world has known,
where faithful ones from every tongue
will one day come.
Before the Son we’ll stand,
made faultless through the Lamb:
believing heart’s find promised grace,
salvation comes.

Hear heaven’s voices sing,
their thunderous anthem rings;
through emerald courts and sapphire skies
their praises rise.
All glory, wisdom, power,
strength, thanks and honour are
to God our King who reigns on high
for evermore.

And there we’ll find our home,
our life before the throne;
we’ll honour Him in perfect song,
where we belong.
He’ll wipe each tear-stained eye
as thirst and hunger die,
the Lamb becomes our Shepherd King,
we’ll reign with Him.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God almighty!
Early in the morning our song of praise shall be:
‘Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty,
God in three Persons, glorious Trinity!’

Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore You,
casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea,
cherubim and seraphim failing down before You:
You were and are, and evermore shall be!

Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide You,
though the eye of sinful man Your glory may not see,
You alone are holy, there is none beside You,
perfect in power, in love and purity.

Holy, holy, holy, Lord God almighty!
All Your works shall praise Your name, in earth and sky and sea:
‘Holy, holy, holy; merciful and mighty,
God in three Persons, glorious Trinity!’

Awake, awake, O Zion,
and clothe yourself with strength,
shake off your dust
and fix your eyes on Him.
For you have been redeemed by
the precious blood of Jesus,
and now you sit enthroned with Him.

Our God reigns,
He is King of all the earth.
Our God reigns,
and He’s seated on the throne.
Lift your voice,
and sing a song of praise.
Our God reigns,
the awesome Lord most high.

How beautiful the feet are
of those who bring good news,
for they proclaim the peace that comes from God.
Rise up, you holy nation,
proclaim the great salvation,
and say to Zion ‘Your God reigns.’

Emmanuel, Emmanuel,
our God is with us now.

The watchmen lift their voices,
and raise a shout of joy,
for He will come again.
Then all eyes will see the
Salvation of our God,
for He has redeemed Jerusalem.

shaping in mercy all that concerns us,
Father, we praise you, Lord of the past!

God of this morning, gladly your children
worship before you, trustingly bow;
teach us to know you always among us,

princes of darkness own your command;
what, then, can harm us?
We are your people,

Bible Reading: Ecclesiastes 3:16-4:3

The Lord eternal reigns,
His throne is built on high;
the kingly robes He wears
are light and majesty:
His glories shine with beams so bright
no mortal eye can bear the sight.

The thunders of His hand
keep the wide world in awe;
His wrath and justice stand
to guard His holy law;
and where His love resolves to bless
His truth confirms and seals the grace.

Through all His mighty works
amazing wisdom shines,
confounds the powers of hell
and breaks their cursed designs;
strong is His arm, and shall fulfil
His great decrees and sovereign will.

And can this glorious King
to human hearts descend?
And will He write His name
my Father and my friend?
I love His name, I love His word;
let all my being praise the Lord!

The Bible Teaching

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea;
a great High Priest, whose name is Love,
who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
my name is written on His heart;
I know that while in heaven He stands
no tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair,
and tells me of the guilt within,
upward I look, and see Him there
who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Saviour died,
my sinful soul is counted free;
for God, the Just, is satisfied
to look on Him and pardon me.

Behold Him there! The risen Lamb!
My perfect, spotless righteousness,
the great unchangeable I AM,
the King of glory and of grace!
One with Himself, I cannot die;
my soul is purchased by His blood:
my life is hid with Christ on high,
with Christ, my Saviour and my God.

Prayer.

Sunday Morning Service - 27th April 2008

Welcome

As the deer pants for the water,
so my soul longs after You.
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.

You alone are my strength, my shield,
to You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.

I want You more than gold or silver,
only You can satisfy.
You alone are the real joy-giver
and the apple of my eye.

You’re my Friend and You’re my Brother,
even though You are a king.
I love You more than any other,
so much more than anything.

Prayer

Jesus is the King,
ruler over everything
Jesus is the one,
promised one, the Son of God
Jesus is the Lord,
He’s the one you can’t ignore
Jesus, Jesus: He is the King.

He commanded the fishermen,
“Hey, Come follow me!”
And they did, and they did,
and they did!
Because...

He commanded the evil ones,
“Hey, come out of him!”
And they did, and they did,
and they did!
Because...

He commanded the wind and waves.
“Hey, be still, be still!”
And they did, and they did, and they did!
Because...

He promised that three days after death,
He’d rise again
And He did, and He did, and He did!
Because...

Reading: Ecclesiastes 3:1-15

Faithful One,
so unchanging:
ageless One,
You’re my rock and peace.
Lord of all, I depend on You,
I call out to You again and again,
I call out to You again and again.

You are my rock in times of trouble.
You lift me up when I fall down;
all through the storm
Your love is the anchor -
my hope is in You alone.

Bible Talk

My times are in Your hand;
my God, I wish them there!
My life, my friends, my soul, I leave
entirely to Your care.

My times are in Your hand
whatever they may be,
pleasing or painful, dark or bright,
as You know best for me.

My times are in Your hand;
why should I doubt or fear?
A father’s hand will never cause
his child a needless tear.

My times are in Your hand,
Jesus, the crucified;
those hands my cruel sins had pierced
are now my guard and guide.

My times are in Your hand;
such faith You give to me
that after death, at Your right hand
I shall for ever be.

Jesus, the joy of loving hearts
(Pr 731)

Jesus, the joy of loving hearts,
fountain of life and light of men,
from the best bliss that earth imparts
we turn unfilled to You again.

Your truth unchanged has always stood;
You save all those who on You call:
to those who seek You, O how good!
To those who find You, all in all!

We taste of You, the Living Bread,
and long to feast upon You still;
we drink of You, the fountain-head,
and thirst our souls from You to fill.

Our restless spirits long for You,
no matter where our lot is cast,
glad when Your gracious smile we view,
blessed when our faith can hold You fast.

O Jesus, ever with us stay;
make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away,
spread through the world your holy light.

The Lord’s Supper and offering
O Christ, in You my soul has found (Pr 782)

O Christ, in You my soul has found
and found in You alone,
the peace that I had sought so long,
the joy till now unknown.

Now none but Christ can satisfy,
no other name so true;
there’s love and life and lasting joy,
Lord Jesus, found in you.

I longed for rest and happiness
but Christ I could not see;
then, Saviour, while I passed You by,
Your love laid hold on me.

I used to grieve for pleasures lost
but never wept for You;
You touched my eyes – and grace revealed
Your beauty to my view.

Prayers

How firm a foundation -

How firm a foundation,
you saints of the Lord,
is laid for your faith
in His excellent word!
What more can He say
than to you He has said,
to all who for refuge
to Jesus have fled?

In every condition -
in sickness, in health,
in poverty’s grip
or abounding in wealth,
at home or abroad,
on the land, on the sea -
as days may demand
shall your strength ever be.

Since Jesus is with you,
do not be afraid;
since He is your God,
you need not be dismayed:
He’ll strengthen you, guard you,
and help you to stand,
upheld by His righteous,
omnipotent hand.

When through the deep waters
He calls you to go,
you will not be drowned
in the rivers of woe;
for He will be with you
in trouble, to bless
and work for your good
through your deepest distress.

When through fiery trials
your pathway shall lie,
His grace all-sufficient
shall be your supply;
the flames shall not harm you:
His only design
your dross to consume
and your gold to refine.

The soul that in Jesus
has found its repose,
He will not, He cannot,
desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell
should endeavour to shake,
He’ll never, no never,
no never forsake!

The Bible Teaching

God, in the gospel of His Son -

God, in the gospel of His Son,
makes His eternal counsels known
where love in all its glory shines
and truth is drawn in fairest lines.

Here sinners of a helpless race
may learn His name and taste His grace,
may read in characters of blood
the wisdom, power and grace of God.

Here may the prisoners lose their chains,
the weary rest from all their pains,
the captives find their souls’ release,
the mourners find the way of peace.

Here faith reveals to mortal eyes
a brighter world beyond the skies;
here shines the light which guides our way
from earth to realms of endless day.

Here wisdom all her light imparts,
to teach our minds and move our hearts:
such influence bids the sinner live
and makes the burdened soul revive.

O grant us grace, almighty Lord,
to understand Your holy word,
with meekness all its truths receive
and by its light for ever live.

Bible Teaching

O Church, Arise, and put your armour on

O Church, Arise, and put your armour on;
hear the call of Christ our Captain.
For now the weak can say that they are strong
in the strength that God has given.
With shield of faith and belt of truth,
we’ll stand against the devil’s lies;
an army bold, whose battle-cry is Love,
reaching out to those in darkness.

Our call to war, to love the captive soul
but to rage against the captor;
and with the sword that makes the wounded whole,
we will fight with faith and valour.
When faced with trials on every side
we know the outcome is secure,
and Christ will have the prize for which He died,
an inheritance of nations.

Come see the cross where love and mercy meet,
as the Son of God is stricken;
then see His foes lie crushed beneath His feet,
for the Conqueror has risen!
And as the stone is rolled away,
and Christ emerges from the grave,
this victory march continues till the day
every eye and heart shall see Him.

So Spirit, come, put strength in every stride,
give grace for every hurdle,
that we may run with faith to win the prize
of a servant good and faithful.
As saints of old still line the way,
retelling triumphs of His grace,
we hear their calls, and hunger for the day
when with Christ we stand in glory.

And can it be

And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Saviour’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain? For me, who Him to death pursued? Amazing love! How can it be that You, my God, should die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be that You, my God, should die for me?

What mystery here! The Immortal dies! Who can explore His strange design? In vain the highest angel tries to sound the depths of love divine!
What mercy this! Let earth adore; let angel minds enquire no more.
What mercy this! Let earth adore; let angel minds enquire no more.

He left his Father’s throne above so free, so infinite His grace –
humbled Himself in all His love and bled for Adam’s helpless race.
What mercy this, immense and free, for, O my God, it found out me!
What mercy this, immense and free, for, O my God, it found out me!

Long my imprisoned spirit lay fast bound in sin and nature’s night:
then shone Your glorious gospel ray; I woke! The dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, my heart was new, I rose, went forth and followed You!
My chains fell off, my heart was new, I rose, went forth and followed You!

No condemnation now I dread! Jesus, and all in Him, is mine!
Alive in Him, my living head, and clothed in righteousness divine,
bold I approach the eternal throne and claim the crown, through Christ my own;
bold I approach the eternal throne and claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Welcome

See, what a morning, gloriously bright,
with the dawning of hope in Jerusalem;
folded the grave clothes, tomb filled with light
as the angels announce Christ is risen!
See God’s salvation plan,
wrought in love,
borne in pain, paid in sacrifice,
fulfilled in Christ the man, for He lives:
Christ is risen from the dead!

See Mary weeping, “Where is He laid?”
as in sorrow she turns from the empty tomb;
hears a voice speaking, calling her name;
it’s the Master, the Lord raised to life again!
The voice that spans the years,
speaking life,
stirring hope, bringing peace to us,
will sound till He appears, for He lives,
Christ is risen from the dead!

One with the Father, Ancient of Days,
through the Spirit who clothes faith with certainty,
honour and blessing, glory and praise
to the King crowned with power and authority!
And we are raised with Him,
death is dead,
love has won, Christ has conquered;
and we shall reign with Him, for He lives,
Christ is risen from the dead!

Prayer

I know that my Redeemer lives:
what joy this great assurance gives!
He lives, he lives, who once was dead,
He lives, my ever-living head.

He lives, triumphant from the grave;
He lives, eternally to save;
He lives to bless me with His love,
He lives to plead for me above.

He lives, my kind, wise, constant friend,
He lives and loves me to the end;
He lives, and while He lives I’ll sing,
‘Jesus, my Prophet, Priest and King.’

He lives and grants me daily breath;
He lives and I shall conquer death:
He lives my dwelling to prepare;
He lives to bring me safely there.

He lives, all glory to His name!
He lives, unchangeably the same!
What joy this great assurance gives:
I know that my Redeemer lives!

Hymn: Holy, holy, holy
Prayer: (to be read aloud by all)
Almighty God,
Father of all mercies,
we your unworthy servants
give you our humble and heartfelt thanks
for all your goodness and loving-kindness
to us and all mankind.
We praise you for our creation, preservation,
and all the blessings of this life;
but above all for your immeasurable love
in the redemption of the world
by our Lord Jesus Christ;
for the means of grace
and for the hope of glory.
We pray that you will give us
such an awareness of your goodness
that our hearts may be truly thankful
and that we may declare your praise
not only with our lips
but in out lives,
by giving ourselves in your service
and by walking before you
in holiness and righteousness all our days.
All honour be to you,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
now and through all eternity.
Amen

Hymn: King of kings, majesty
Bible reading: Genesis 29:1-30
Prayer: (to be read aloud by all)
Heavenly Father,
you have loved us with an everlasting love,
but we have turned against you,
ignoring you and rejecting your will for our lives.
We have been stubborn and rebellious,
but you are merciful and kind.
For the sake of your Son who died for us,
forgive us, cleanse us and change us,
enable us to live for you
and to please you in every way;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
