OUR APPROACH TO GOD
Prelude "How Lovely Are Thy Dwellings" S. Liddle
Introit "Jesu, Jesu" Ghana Folk Song
Welcome
Call to Worship: Ps 50: 1, Isaiah 2: 21; Ps 96
The mighty one, God the Lord,
SPEAKS AND SUMMONS THE EARTH
In the final days the temple will tower about the highest hills and
mountains,
ALL NATIONS WILL STREAM TOWARD IT.
Tell the nations, "The Lord rules!"
LET HEAVEN AND EARTH BE GLAD!
Let sea and sea creatures roar,
LET THE FIELD AND ITS BEASTS EXULT!
*Hymn 285 "In Christ There Is No East or West"
Let us be before our God in silence.
Unison Prayer: Ps 80
RESTORE US, O GOD OF HOSTS; LET YOUR FACE SHINE, THAT WE MAY BE
SAVED. YOU BROUGHT A VINE OUT OF EGYPT; YOU DROVE OUT THE NATIONS AND
PLANTED IT. YOU CLEARED THE GROUND FOR IT; IT TOOK DEEP ROOT AND FILLED
THE LAND...TURN AGAIN, O GOD OF HOSTS; LOOK DOWN FROM HEAVEN, AND SEE; HAVE
REGARD FOR THIS VINE, THE STOCK THAT YOUR RIGHT HAND PLANTED.
Kyrie (sung)
LORD HAVE MERCY UPON US.
CHRIST HAVE MERCY UPON US.
LORD HAVE MERCY UPON US.
A Word of Assurance: Isaiah 52: 9-10
The Summary of the Law (Mk 12:29-31)
This is the first commandment:
HEAR O ISRAEL, THE LORD OUR GOD, THE LORD IS ONE!
THEREFORE YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, WITH
ALL YOUR SOUL, WITH ALL YOUR MIND, AND WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH.
This is the second commandment:
YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.
There is no greater commandment than these.
