Call to Worship

Hymn – Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty

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!
All the saints adore Thee
Casting down their golden crowns
around the glassy sea
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee
Who wast and art and evermore shalt be

Holy, holy, holy
Though the darkness hide Thee
Though the sinful human eye thy glory may not see
Only Thou art holy; there is none beside Thee
Perfect in power, in 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

Hymn – There is a higher throne

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 hearts 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
Forever more.

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.

Sign of the week

Hymn – Shine, from the inside out

Shine from the inside out
That the world will see you live in me
Shine from the inside out
That the world will see you live in me

You know me and you love me
You fill me, so send me to…

Know me, love me, fill me, send me
Know me, love me, fill me, send me
Know me, love me, fill me, send me
Shine

Bible Readings – Psalm 96, Luke 9 v1-6

Sermon

Hymn – May the words of my mouth

1. May the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart
     Bless Your name, bless Your name, Jesus
     And the deeds of the day and the truth in my ways
     Speak of You, speak of You, Jesus

Chorus

        For this is what I’m glad to do
        It’s time to live a life of love that pleases You
        And I will give my all to You
        Surrender everything I have and follow You
        I’ll follow You

2. Lord, will You be my vision, Lord, will You be my guide
     Be my hope, be my light and the way
     And I’ll look not for riches, nor praises on earth
     Only You’ll be the first of my heart

Chorus

Prayers for others

Offering

Hymn – Come set your rule and reign

Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we’re made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your Church
We need Your power
In us

We seek Your kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You’re our joy and prize
To see the captive hearts released
The hurt; the sick; the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for Heaven’s cause
We are Your church
We pray revive
This Earth

Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray

Unleash Your kingdom’s power
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your beauty changing hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your church
We are the hope
On Earth
