Just as I am, without one plea     But that Thy blood was shed for me

And that Thou bidd’st me come to Thee,    O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

 

All my hope is in Jesus   Thank God my yesterday’s gone

All my sins are forgiven    I’ve been washed by the blood

 

Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,   Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;

Because Thy promise I believe,     O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

 

All my hope is in Jesus   Thank God my yesterday’s gone

All my sins are forgiven    I’ve been washed by the blood

 

Just as I am; Thy love unknown    Has broken ev’ry barrier down.

Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,    O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

 

All my hope is in Jesus   Thank God my yesterday’s gone

All my sins are forgiven    I’ve been washed by the blood

  • 11 Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.

    13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

    17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father.

    “But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

    21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

    22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive ag

  • 12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.

    15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

OPENING PRAYER for WORSHIP

 

P:  Eternal God, we have gathered today to rejoice in You.  To rejoice 

 

In the creation of world and in the gift of the breathe of life, 

In the daily bread You provide and in the protection You give, 

In the redemption You won for us through Jesus and in the faith Your 

Spirit has created in us.  

In the promise of strength for each day and in the promise of eternal 

life with You. 

 

Lord Jesus, you promised, “Where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”  Be with us as You have promised.  May Your presence humble us today.  You tell us to not give up meeting together so that we might encourage one another.  Use us today, Lord, to bless our brothers and sisters.

 

 

C:  Here may the faithful find salvation, and the careless be awakened. 

Here may the doubting find faith, and the anxious be encouraged. 

Here may the tempted find help, and the troubled find comfort. 

Here may the weary find rest, and the strong be renewed. 

 

P:  O Holy Spirit, You poured out Your power on Your people on Pentecost.   We pray that today You would once again pour out Your power on Your people here. 

 

C:  Come to cleanse us within. 

and to inspire us. 

Come to lead us in the darkness. 

And to dispel our ignorance.

Come to enable us in our weaknesses.

And to dwell in us. 

 

Convict us, convert us, consecrate us. Until we are all set free from the service of ourselves to be Your servants to the world.  In Jesus’ name, we pray

 

C:  Amen.

 

P:  Come, let us worship the Lord who loved us enough to die for us.
