Call to Worship<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whatever life brings
\nWhatever the struggle
\nI am always with you;
\nyou hold me by my right hand.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>Whom have I in heaven but you?
\nAnd earth has nothing I desire besides you.
\n\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>My flesh and my heart may fail,
\nbut God is the strength of my heart
\nand my portion for ever.<\/p>\n

From Psalm 73<\/p>\n

MP 660: The Lord\u2019s my shepherd
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 The Lord’s my shepherd, I’ll not want;
\nHe makes me down to lie in
\npastures green:
\nHe leadeth me the quiet waters by.<\/p>\n

2 My soul He doth restore again,
\nand me to walk doth make
\nwith the paths of righteousness,
\ne’en for His own name’s sake.<\/p>\n

3 Yea, though I walk through death’s dark vale,
\nyet I will fear none ill;
\nfor Thou are with me, and Thy rod
\nand staff me comfort still.<\/p>\n

4 My table Thou hast furnished
\nin presence of my foes;
\nmy head Thou dost with oil anoint,
\nand my cup overflows.<\/p>\n

5 Goodness and mercy all my life
\nshall surely follow me;
\nand in God’s house for evermore
\nmy dwelling-place shall be.<\/p>\n

Reading Luke \u00a015 : 1 \u2013 10<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering round to hear Jesus.\u00a0\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered,<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u2018This man welcomes sinners, and eats with them.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

Then Jesus told them this parable:
\n\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>\u2018Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn\u2019t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it?
\nAnd when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders\u00a0\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>and goes home.
\nThen he calls his friends and neighbours together and says,
\n\u201cRejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.\u201d
\n\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous people who do not need to repent.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>\u2018Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins\u00a0and loses one. Doesn\u2019t she light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it?
\nAnd when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbours together and says, \u201cRejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.\u201d
\n\u00a0<\/sup><\/strong>In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.\u2019<\/p>\n

MP 133: Father I place into your hands<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Father, I place into Your hands
\nthe things that I can’t do.
\nFather, I place into Your hands
\nthe times that I’ve been through.
\nFather, I place into Your hands
\nthe way that I should go,
\nfor I know I always can trust You.<\/p>\n

2 Father, I place into Your hands
\nmy friends and family.
\nFather, I place into Your hands
\nthe things that trouble me.
\nFather, I place into Your hands
\nthe person I should be,
\nfor I know I always can trust You.<\/p>\n

3. Father, we love to seek Your face,
\nwe love to hear Your voice.
\nFather, we love to sing Your praise,
\nand in Your name rejoice.
\nFather, we love to walk with You
\nand in Your presence rest,
\nfor we know we always can trust You.<\/p>\n

4 Father, I want to be with You
\nand do the things You do.
\nFather, I want to speak the words
\nthat You are speaking too.
\nFather, I want to love the ones
\nthat You will draw to You,
\nfor I know that I am one with You.<\/p>\n

CH4 424: Blest be the everlasting God<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 Blest be the everlasting God,
\nthe Father of our Lord!
\nBe his abounding mercy praised,
\nhis majesty adored!<\/p>\n

2 When from the dead he raised his Son,
\nand called him to the sky,
\nhe gave our souls a lively hope
\nthat they should never die.<\/p>\n

3 To an inheritance divine
\nhe taught our hearts to rise;
\n’tis uncorrupted, undefiled,
\nunfading in the skies.<\/p>\n

4 Saints by the power of God are kept,
\ntill the salvation come;
\nwe walk by faith as strangers here;
\nbut Christ shall call us home.<\/p>\n

MP 148: For all the saints<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 For all the saints who from their labours rest,
\nwho Thee by faith before the world confessed.
\nThy name, O Jess, be for ever blest.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

2 Thou wast their rock, their fortress, and their might;
\nThou, Lord, their Captain in the well-fought fight;
\nThou in the darkness drear their one true light
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

3 O may Thy soldiers, faithful, true and bold,
\nfight as the saints who nobly fought of old,
\nand win, with them, the victor’s crown of gold!
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

4 O blest communion, fellowship divine!
\nWe feebly struggle, they in glory shine;
\nyet all are one in Thee, for all are Thine.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

5 And when the strife is fierce, the warfare long,
\nsteals on the car the distant triumph-song,
\nand hearts are brave again, and arms are strong.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

6 The golden evening brightens in the west;
\nsoon, soon to faithful warriors cometh rest;
\nsweet in the calm of paradise the blest.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

7 But lo! there breaks a yet more glorious day:
\nthe saints triumphant rise in bright array;
\nthe King of glory passes on His way.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n

8 From earth’s wide bounds, from ocean’s farthest coast,
\nthrough gates of pearl streams in the countless host,
\nsinging to Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
\nAlleluia!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
