Call To Worship: Who is Like You, O Lord

LEADER: The word of the Lord is upright, and all His work is done in faithfulness.
PEOPLE: He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.

LEADER: Who is like You, O Lord, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds, doing wonders?
PEOPLE: You will return in power and glory to set all things right and to make all things new!

LEADER: Who is like You, O Lord, majestic in holiness, awesome in glorious deeds?
ALL: Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns!

Classic Prayer: Martin Luther

Behold, Lord, an empty vessel that needs to be filled. My Lord, fill it. I am weak, strengthen me. I am cold in love, warm me and make me fervent that my love may go out to my neighbor. I do not have a strong and firm faith, at times I doubt and am unable to trust thee altogether. O Lord, help me. Strengthen my faith and trust in thee. In thee I have sealed the treasures of all I have. I am a sinner, in thee is the fullness of righteousness. Therefore, I will remain with thee of whom I can receive, but to whom I may not give – thanks be to God.

Creed: Jesus, Who is Worthy

LEADER: Why do we call Jesus our Lord?
PEOPLE: Because He has ransomed us, body and soul, from all our sins; not with silver or gold, but with His precious blood; and has freed us from all the power of the devil to make us His own possession.

LEADER: What does God grant in our new life in Christ?
PEOPLE: God grants us reconciliation with Him, forgiveness of our sins, union with Him in Christ, adoption into His family, citizenship in His kingdom, new life in the Holy Spirit, and the promise of eternal life.

ALL: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!”
