Welcome and greeting

Every Move I Make

Chorus

Na na na na na na, na na na na na na; Na na na na na na, na na na na na na;

Verse Every move I make I make in you; you make me move, Jesus; every breath I take I breathe in you; every step I take, I take in you; you are my way, Jesus; every breath I take, I breathe in you;

Bridge Waves of mercy, waves of grace; everywhere I look I see your face; Your love has captured me; O my God, this love, how can it be.

Psalm 51:10-13

(10) Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. (11) Cast me not away from your presence and take not your holy Spirit from me. (12) Restore to me the joy of your salvation and sustain in me a willing spirit. (13) Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will return to you.

Give Me A Clean Heart 2133

Give me a clean heart so I may serve thee. Lord, fix my heart so that I may be used by thee. For I’m not worthy of all those blessings. Give me a clean heart and I’ll follow thee.

1 The Summons 2130

1 Will you come and follow me if I but call your name? Will you go where you don't know and never be the same? Will you let my love be shown, will you let my name be known? will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?

2 Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name? Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same? Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare? Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?

3 Will you let the blinded see if I but call your name? Will you set the prisoners free and never be the same? Will you kiss the leper clean, and do such as this unseen? and admit to what I mean in you and you in me?

4 Will you love the "you" you hide if I but call your name? Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same? Will you use the faith you've found to reshape the world around? through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?

5. Lord, your summons echoes true when you but call my name. Let me turn and follow you and never be the same. In your company I'll go where your love and footsteps show. Thus, I'll move and live and grow in you and you in me.

2 Take Up Your Cross

Take up your cross, take up your cross, Take up your cross and follow me. Take up your cross, take up your cross, Take up your cross and follow me.

Scripture: John 12:20-33

20Now among those who went up to worship at the festival were some Greeks. 21They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and said to him, “Sir, we wish to see Jesus.” 22Philip went and told Andrew; then Andrew and Philip went and told Jesus. 23Jesus answered them, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. 24Very truly, I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. 25Those who love their life lose it, and those who hate their life in this world will keep it for eternal life. 26Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there will my servant be also. Whoever serves me, the Father will honor.

27“Now my soul is troubled. And what should I say— ‘Father, save me from this hour’? No, it is for this reason that I have come to this hour. 28Father, glorify your name.” Then a voice came from heaven, “I have glorified it, and I will glorify it again.” 29The crowd standing there heard it and said that it was thunder. Others said, “An angel has spoken to him.” 30Jesus answered, “This voice has come for your sake, not for mine. 31Now is the judgment of this world; now the ruler of this world will be driven out. 32And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” 33He said this to indicate the kind of death he was to die.

Sermon "Jesus the Superhero” David Buzard

3 There Was Jesus 1 Every time I tried to make it on my own, every time I tried to stand and start to fall, and all those lonely roads that I have traveled on, there was Jesus.

2 When the life I built came crashing to the ground, when the friends I had were nowhere to be found, I couldn't see it then, but I can see it now; there was Jesus.

Chorus In the waiting, in the searching, in the healing and the hurting, like a blessing buried in the broken pieces. Every minute, every moment of where I been and where I'm going, even when I didn't know it or couldn't see it, there was Jesus.

3 For this man who needs amazing kind of grace, for forgiveness at a price I couldn't pay, I'm not perfect, so I thank God every day there was Jesus.

Chorus Bridge There was Jesus on the mountain, in the valleys, there was Jesus in the shadows of the alleys. There was Jesus in the fire, in the flood, there was Jesus, always is and always was.

No, I never walk alone. You are always there.

Chorus Ending There was Jesus.
