All Glory Be to Thee, Most High - N. Decius

All glory be to Thee, Most High, to Thee all adoration;

In grace and truth Thou drawest nigh to offer us salvation;

Thou showest Thy goodwill to men, and peace shall reign on earth again;

We praise Thy Name forever.

Minister: Lift up your hearts! 

People: We lift them up to the Lord! 

Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise - W.C. Smith

Immortal, invisible, God only wise,

In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,

Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,

Almighty, victorious, Thy great Name we praise.

The Apostles' Creed

I believe in God, the Father Almighty, the Maker of heaven and earth, and 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, dead, and buried; He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven, He is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; and He 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.

Affirmation of Faith

Leviticus 20:1-27, pg. 92

Westminster Larger Catechism (#94-95)

M: Is there any use of the moral law to mankind since the fall?

P: Although no person, since the fall, can attain to righteousness and life by the moral law, yet there is great use of it, in a way common to all people, and also as it particularly applies either to the unregenerate or the regenerate.

M: What is the use of the moral law to all people?

P: The moral law is of use to all people to inform them of the holy nature and the will of God and of their duty, binding them to walk accordingly; and to convince them of their inability to keep it and of the sinful pollution of their nature, hearts, and lives. This can humble them in the sense of their sin and misery and thus help them to a clearer sight of the need they have of Christ and of the perfection of His obedience.

Unison: O Lord, great and awesome God, who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love Him and keep His commandments, we have sinned and done wrong and acted wickedly and rebelled, turning aside from Your commandments and rules. O most holy and loving God, help us, we implore You, to live in Your light and walk in Your ways, according to the commandments of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Minister: Blessed is the one whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man against whom the Lord accounts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit. Amen.

Praise God, from Whom All Blessings Flow - T. Ken

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow;

Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;

Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

Minister: The peace of the Lord be with you.

People: And also with you.
