Prelude – “Voluntary in G” – Melanie Manges, organ
Welcome to Worship – Len Wilson
Hymn of Praise – “Crown Him With Many Crowns” – Worship Team
(Verse 1) Crown him with many crowns, the Lamb upon his throne,
Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns all music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing of him who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless king through all eternity.
(Verse 2) Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed o’er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save;
His glories now we sing who died and rose on high,
Who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die.
Call to Worship* – Len Wilson
We worship God, who created the heavens and earth,
God’s reign endures forever.
We follow Jesus, who made God’s love known to us,
Through his life, death, and resurrection
We listen for the Holy Spirit, who breathes in us,
And grants us wisdom and insight.
Come, worship our God together,
Celebrate all the ways God is made known to you, now.
Children’s Sermon – Rev. Lisa Williams Hood
Hymn of Devotion – “Shine Jesus Shine”
(Verse 1) Lord, the light of your love is shining,
In the midst of the darkness shining;
Jesus, light of the world, shine upon us,
Set us free by the truth you now bring us,
Shine on me, shine on me.
(Refrain) Shine, Jesus, shine, fill this land with the Father’s glory,
Blaze, Spirit, Blaze, set our hearts on fire.
Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy;
Send forth your Word, Lord, and let there be light.
(Verse 3) As we gaze on your kingly brightness,
So our faces display your likeness;
Ever changing from glory to glory,
mirrored hear may our lives tell your story,
shine on me, shine on me.
(Refrain) Shine, Jesus, shine, fill this land with the Father’s glory,
Blaze, Spirit, Blaze, set our hearts on fire.
Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy;
Send forth your Word, Lord, and let there be light.
