Inspired by Isaiah 48 & 1 Peter 1

The Sovereign Lord sends His Word endowed with His Spirit. 
If we pay attention to God's commands,

Our peace will be like a river,
Our well-being like the waves of the sea.
  

Leader:  
This is what the Lord: our Redeemer,
the Holy One of Israel says…   “I AM the Lord your God.”

Who teaches us what is best for us.
Who directs us in the way we should go.

Just as God who calls us is holy,

so may we be holy in all we do.

Holiness to the Lord!

*HYMN

“Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing”

Robert Robinson 

Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,

Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;

Streams of mercy, never ceasing,

Call for songs of loudest praise.

Teach me some melodious sonnet,

Sung by flaming tongues above.

Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it,

Mount of Thy redeeming love.

Here I raise mine Ebenezer; hither by Thy help I'm come;

And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home.

Jesus sought me when a stranger,

Wandering from the fold of God; 

He to rescue me from danger, interposed His precious blood.

O to grace how great a debtor

Daily I'm constrained to be!

Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,

Bind my wandering heart to Thee.

Prone to wander, Lord I feel it,

Prone to leave the God I love;

Here's my heart, O take and seal it,

Seal it for Thy courts above.

*APOSTLES’ CREED

I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth: and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day He arose from the dead; 

He ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.   Amen

*HYMN 

“Love Divine, All Loves Excelling”

Charles Wesley / Rowland H. Prichard 

Love divine, all loves excelling,

Joy of heaven, to earth come down; 

Fix in us Thy humble dwelling,

All Thy faithful mercies crown!

Jesus, Thou art all compassion,

Pure, unbounded love Thou art;

Visit us with Thy salvation;

Enter ev'ry trembling heart.

Breathe, O breathe Thy loving Spirit

Into ev'ry troubled breast!

Let us all in Thee inherit,

Let us find that second rest.

Take away our bent to sinning;

Alpha and Omega be; 

End of faith, as its beginning,

Set our hearts at liberty.

Come, Almighty to deliver, 

Let us all Thy life receive;

Suddenly return and never,

Never more Thy temples leave.

Thee we would be always blessing, 

Serve Thee as Thy hosts above,

Pray and praise Thee without ceasing, 

Glory in Thy perfect love.

ANTHEM

“It is Well with my Soul”

John Ness Beck

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,

When sorrows like sea billows roll,

Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,

It is well, it is well with my soul.

It is well (it is well), with my soul (with my soul), 

It is well, it is well with my soul.

My sin, O the joy of this glorious thought,

My sin, not in part, but the whole,

Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul! 

It is well (it is well), with my soul (with my soul), 

It is well, it is well with my soul.

And, Lord, haste the day

when my faith shall be sight,

The clouds be rolled back as scroll.

The trumpet shall sound

and the Lord shall descend,

Even so, it is well with my soul!

It is well (it is well), with my soul (with my soul), 

It is well, it is well with my soul.

SERMON Commissioner Ralph Bukiewicz

“An Undivided Heart”


*CLOSING HYMN    

“O Boundless Salvation”

Booth

O boundless salvation! deep ocean of love,

O fulness of mercy, Christ brought from above.

The whole world redeeming, 

so rich and so free,

Now flowing for all men, 

Now flowing for all men, 

Now flowing for all men, 

come, roll over me!

O ocean of mercy, oft longing I’ve stood

On the brink of thy wonderful, 

life-giving flood!

Once more I have reached 

this soul-cleansing sea,

I will not go back 

I will not go back 

I will not go back till it rolls over me.

The tide is now flowing, 

I’m touching the wave,

I hear the loud call of the mighty to save;

My faith’s growing bolder, delivered I’ll be;

I plunge ‘neath the waters, 

I plunge ‘neath the waters, 

I plunge ‘neath the waters, 

they roll over me.

And now, hallelujah! the rest of my days

Shall gladly be spent 

in promoting His praise

Who opened His bosom to pour out this sea

Of boundless salvation

Of boundless salvation

Of boundless salvation for you and for me.

BENEDICTION

Comm’r Ralph Bukiewicz

“God Be With You Till We Meet Again”

Jeremiah F. Rankin / William G. Tomer

God be with you till we meet again; 

By His counsels guide, uphold you, 

With His sheep securely fold you;

God be with you till we meet again.

Till we meet, till we meet,

Till we meet at Jesus' feet; 

Till we meet, till we meet,

God be with you till we meet again.
