On this historical Sunday, we will be outside in our parking lot. We are expecting high winds so we will not be providing video for today’s service.
We are so grateful that you are choosing to join us for worship today.
If you have not heard from anyone else today, remember, this pastor love you!
He Never Failed Me Yet
I will sing of God’s mercy
Every day, every hour
He gives me power.
I will sing and give thanks to Thee
For all the dangers, toils and snares
That He has brought me out.
He is my God and I’ll serve Him
No matter what the test.
Trust and never doubt
Jesus will surely bring you out
He never failed me yet.
I will sing of God’s mercy
Every day, every hour
He gives me power.
I will sing and give thanks to Thee

He is my God and I’ll serve Him
No matter what the test.
Trust and never doubt
Jesus will surely bring you out
He never failed me yet.
I know God is able to deliver
In times of storm
And I know that He’ll keep you safe
From all earthly harm.
One day when my weary soul is at rest
I’m going home to be forever blessed.
Trust and never doubt
Jesus will surely bring you out
He never failed me yet.

Didn’t my God deliver
Moses from King Pharaoh?
And didn’t He cool the fiery furnace
For Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego?
When I think of what my God can do
He delivered Daniel
I know He will deliver you.
Trust and never doubt
Jesus will surely bring you out
He never failed me yet.
I will sing of God’s mercy
Every day, every hour
He gives me power.

No matter what the test.

He never failed me
He never failed me
Yet
He never failed me
He never failed me
Yet
He never failed me
He never failed me
Yet
He never failed me
He never failed me
Yet.
Trust and never doubt
Jesus will surely bring you out
He never failed me yet.
“Let Love In” – Jim Martin.
A Mighty Fortress
A mighty fortress is our God,
A sword and shield victorious;
He breaks the cruel oppressor’s rod
And wins salvation glorious.
The old satanic foe has sworn to work us woe!
With craft and dreadful might he arms himself to fight.
On earth he has no equal.
No strength of ours can match his might!
We would be lost, rejected.
But now a champion comes to fight,
Whom God himself elected.You ask who this may be? The Lord of hosts is he!
Christ Jesus, mighty Lord, God’s only Son, adored.
He holds the field victorious.
God’s Word forever shall abide,
No thanks to foes, who fear it;
For God himself fights by our side
With weapons of the Spirit.
Were they to take our house,
Goods, honor, child, or spouse,
Though life be wrenched away, they cannot win the day.
The kingdom’s ours forever!
Confession and Forgiveness
Blessed be the holy Trinity, ☩ one God,
who pours love into our hearts
and healing upon the earth.
Amen.
Confident that God justifies us by grace through faith,
let us confess our sin.
Silence is kept for reflection.
Pastor:
Compassionate God,
All:
we confess that we struggle to embody your goodness
in the world and in our own hearts.
Creation groans from overuse.
Jealousy and bitterness strain our relationships.
Indifference keeps us from seeking justice.
Divisions disrupt your call to show genuine love
to others.
Turn our hearts back to you.
Restore our world and reconcile us to one another.
Renew us to live as your holy people,
following the way of Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Pastor:
Hear this good news:
We have peace with God through ☩ Jesus Christ,
in whom there is no condemnation,
but only forgiveness and the promise of eternal life.
Receive freely this healing gift of grace.
All:
Amen.
In Christ Alone
Verse 1
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light my strength my song
This Cornerstone this solid Ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love what depths of peace
When fears are stilled when strivings cease
My Comforter my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
Verse 2
In Christ alone who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
Verse 3
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
Verse 4
No guilt in life no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.
Take Courage
VERSE
Slow down, take time
Breath in He said
He’d reveal what’s to come
The thoughts in His mind
Always higher than mine
He’ll reveal all to come
CHORUS
Take courage my heart
Stay steadfast my soul
He’s in the waiting
He’s in the waiting
Hold onto your hope
As your triumph unfolds
He’s never failing, He’s never failing
Sing praise my soul
Find strength in joy
Let His Words lead you on
Do not forget
His great faithfulness
He’ll finish all He’s begun
CHORUS X 2
So take courage my heart
Stay steadfast my soul
He’s in the waiting, He’s in the waiting
Hold onto your hope
As your triumph unfolds
He’s never failing
He’s never failing
BRIDGE X 2
And You who hold the stars
Who call them each by name
Will surely keep, Your promise to me
That I will rise, in Your victory
CHORUS X 2
So take courage my heart
Stay steadfast my soul
He’s in the waiting, He’s in the waiting
And hold onto your hope
Watch your triumph unfold
He’s never failing, He’s never failing
IF THE LORD BUILD THE HOUSE
I’ve built up my own name
But the walls couldn’t stand
I’ve trusted my own strength
But it was sinking sand
So I put my ruins
Into Your hands
And watch You restore them
Like only You can
Cause if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
The bricks may be weathered
Through storm and through fire
But what God holds together
It stands firm every time
Cause my life is anchored
On this solid truth
That whatever God’s building
No it can’t be moved
Cause if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
Oooh, oooh
As for me and my house
We’re gonna serve You Lord
So here’s the keys
Come on in
Everything we have is Yours
As for me and my house
We’re gonna serve You Lord
So here’s the keys
Come on in
Everything we have is Yours
Oh, here’s the keys
Won’t You come on in
Everything we have is Yours
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can (tear it down)
Nobody can tear it down
(If the Lord builds the house)
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing gonna shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
When it’s built on His name
There’s nothing that can shake this ground
If the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down
I said if the Lord builds the house
Nobody can tear it down.
