People: Let us rejoice and be glad in it! Announcements Opening Hymn Rejoice the Lord is King #224 Rejoice, the Lord is King! Your Lord and King adore. Rejoice, give thanks and sing And triumph evermore. Lift up your heart, lift up your voice. Rejoice, again I say, rejoice! His kingdom cannot fail; He rules o'er earth and heaven; The keys of death and hell to our Christ the Lord are given. Lift up your heart, lift up your voice. Rejoice, again I say, rejoice! He sits at God's right hand Till all his foes submit, Bow down at his command, And fall beneath his feet. Lift up your heart, lift up your voice. Rejoice, again I say, rejoice! Rejoice in glorious hope; For Christ, the Judge, shall come To gather all his saints To their eternal home. We soon shall hear the archangel's voice; The trump of God shall sound, rejoice! Psalm Response Psalm 93 The LORD reigns, he is robed in majesty; the LORD is robed in majesty and armed with strength; Indeed, the world is established, firm and secure. Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity. The seas have lifted up their voice, LORD, the seas have lifted up their pounding waves. Mightier than the thunder of the great waters 2 the LORD on high is mighty. Your statutes, LORD, stand firm; holiness adorns your house for endless days. Prayer of Confession (Unison) Gracious God, Your Word is a lamp unto our feet, but we continue to stumble in the darkness. We have such huge capacity for communication but continually mishandle it. We continue to hurt people with our words; criticize rather than affirm, curse instead of bless. We are caught up in our self-centered lives instead of a life centered in Jesus Christ. Lord, forgive us and teach us to speak in love to one another. Help us speak to one another as graciously as you have spoken to us in Jesus Christ. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen. (People silently offer their personal confessions to God.) Assurance of Pardon Pastor: Friends, believe the Good News: People: In Jesus Christ we are forgiven! Response Glory Be to the Father #961 Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be World without end. Amen, Amen.
