Song of Gathering June 7, 2009
Come Heavy LadenWords by William Williams, 1717-1791
Music by Brian T. Murphy and Benj Pocta, 2007.
Come heavy laden, come and restYour souls from fear and pain;Jesus the God was crucified,And died and rose again.
His holy yoke’s easy and smooth,His burdens all are light;In His commandments, though severe,Is infinite delight.
(Chorus) Sweet are His words, sweet is His voice,His smiles are heaven below;Of all the pleasures in this world,Tis Jesus I would know.
O! would He raise my feeble soul,To a celestial flame;I would, for Jesus, either doOr suffer all the same. Chorus (2x)
Welcome and Announcements
Meditation Psalm 113:4-7The LORD is high above all nations, and His glory above the heavens! Who is like the LORD our God, who is seated on high, who looks far down on the heavens and the earth? He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap.
Call to Worship Psalm 8
Leader: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory above the
3
heavens.
People: Out of the mouth of babies and infants, You have established strength because of Your foes, to still the enemy and the avenger.
Leader: When I look at Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place,
People: What is man that You are mindful of him, and the son of man that You care for him?
Leader: Yet You have made him a little lower than the heavenly beingsand crowned him with glory and honor.
People: You have given him dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
Leader: All sheep and oxen, and also the beasts of the field, the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea, whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
People: O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

Immortal, Invisible God Only WiseWords by Walter C. Smith, 1867; Traditional Welsh Melody
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,Most blessèd, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,Almighty, victorious, Thy great Name we praise.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;Thy justice, like mountains, high soaring aboveThy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
To all, life Thou givest, to both great and small;In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,And wither and perish—but naught changeth Thee.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;All laud we would render; O help us to see’Tis only the splendor of light hideth Thee.
Responsive Reading Psalm 103
Leader: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name!
People: Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits,
Leader: Who forgives all your iniquity, Who heals all your diseases,
People: Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
Leader: Who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
People: The Lord works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.
6
Leader: He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the people of Israel.
People: The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.
Leader: He will not always chide, nor will He keep His anger forever.
People: He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities.
Leader: For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His steadfast love toward those who fear Him;
People: As far as the east is from the west, so far does He remove our transgressions from us.
Leader: As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear Him.
People: For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.
Leader: As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field;
People: For the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more.
Leader: But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear Him, and His righteousness to children's children,
People: To those who keep His covenant and remember to do His commandments.
Leader: The Lord has established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom rules over all.
7
People: Bless the Lord, O you His angels, you mighty ones who do His word, obeying the voice of His word!
Leader: Bless the Lord, all His hosts, His ministers, who do His will!
People: Bless the Lord, all His works, in all places of His dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul!

Song of ConfessionLord, Hear Me When I Cry
From the Gadsby Hymnal #378 Words by Samuel Medley, 1738-1799; Music by Robert Turner, 2009
A beggar poor at mercy's door Lies such a wretch as IThou knowest my need is great indeedLord, hear me when I cryLord, hear me when I cry
With guilt beset and deep in debt For pardon Lord I prayO let thy love sufficient prove To take my sins awayLord, hear me when I cry
A wicked heart is no small part Of my distress and shameLet sovereign grace its crimes efface Through Jesus blessed nameLord, hear me when I cry
Affections wild by sin defiled Oft hurry me awayLord bring them home nor let them roam From Christ the living wayLord, hear me when I cry
Before Thy face I've told my case, Lord help and mercy sendPity my soul and make me whole And love me to the endLord, love me to the endLord, hear me when I cry
Assurance of Pardoning Grace Psalm 103:11-14For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His steadfast love toward those who fear Him; as far as the east is from the west, so far does He remove our transgressions from us. As a father shows compassion to His children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who
9
fear Him. For He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust.

Jesus, I am resting, resting in the joy of what Thou art, I am finding out the greatness of Thy loving heartThou hast bid me gaze upon Thee, and Thy beauty fills my soulFor by Thy transforming power, Thou hast made me whole
O how great Thy loving kindness, vaster, broader than the seaOf how marvelous Thy goodness lavished all on meYes, I rest in Thee Beloved, know what wealth of grace is ThineKnow Thy certainty of promise and have made it mine
(Chorus)Jesus, I am resting, resting, in the joy of what Thou artI am finding out the greatness of Thy loving heart
Simply trusting Thee Lord Jesus, I behold Thee as Thou artAnd Thy love so pure, so changeless satisfies my heartSatisfies its deepest longings, meets, supplies its every needCompasseth me round with blessings; Thine is love indeed
Ever lift Thy face upon me, as I work and wait for TheeResting ’neath Thy smile Lord Jesus, earth’s dark shadows fleeBrightness of my Father’s glory, sunshine of my Father’s faceKeep me ever trusting, resting, fill me with Thy grace.

Song of ResponseJesus Shall Reign
Words by Isaac Watts, 1719; Music by John Hatton, 1793Based on Psalm 72
Jesus shall reign where’er the sunDoes his successive journeys run;His kingdom spread from shore to shore,Till moon shall wax and wane no more.
For Him shall endless prayer be made,And praises throng to crown His head;His Name like sweet perfume shall riseWith every morning sacrifice.
People and realms of every tongueDwell on His love with sweetest song;And infant voices shall proclaimTheir early blessings on His Name.
Blessings abound wherever He reigns;The prisoner leaps to lose his chains;The weary find eternal rest,And all the sons of want are blessed.
Let every creature rise and bringHis grateful honors to our King;Angels descend with songs again,And earth repeat the loud “Amen!”
Benediction
