Call to Worship: Psalm 34:1-7
(click below to view reading)
I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul makes its boast in the LORD; let the humble hear and be glad.
Oh, magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together!
I sought the LORD, and He answered me and delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to Him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed.
This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him and saved him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them.
Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him!
Songs of Praise & Adoration
O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing (audio link)
(verse 1)
O for a thousand tongues to sing,
My great Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
(verse 2)
Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease.
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
’Tis life, and health, and peace.
(verse 3)
He speaks, and listening to his voice,
New life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice.
The humble poor believe.
(verse 4)
He breaks the power of canceled sin,
He sets the prisoner free.
His blood can make the foulest clean.
His blood availed for me.
(verse 5)
My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of Thy name.

Scripture Reading: Philippians 2:5-11
Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus,
who, though He was in the form of God, did not count equality with God
a thing to be grasped, but emptied Himself, by taking the form of a servant,
being born in the likeness of men.
And being found in human form, He humbled Himself
by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
Therefore God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name
that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
My Worth Is Not In What I Own (video link)
(verse 1)
My worth is not in what I own,
Not in the strength of flesh and bone,
But in the costly wounds of love at the cross.
(verse 2)
My worth is not in skill or name,
In win or lose, in pride or shame,
But in the blood of Christ that flowed at the cross.
(chorus)
I rejoice in my Redeemer,
Greatest treasure, Wellspring of my soul.
I will trust in Him, no other,
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.
(verse 3)
As summer flowers we fade and die.
Fame, youth and beauty hurry by,
but life eternal calls to us at the cross.
(verse 4)
I will not boast in wealth or might,
Or human wisdom's fleeting light,
but I will boast in knowing Christ at the cross.
(verse 5)
Two wonders here that I confess:
My worth and my unworthiness.
My value fixed, my ransom paid at the cross.

Confession
Take My Life and Let it Be (audio link)
(verse 1)
Take my life and let it be
Consecrated, Lord to Thee.
Take my moments and my days,
Let them flow with ceaseless praise,
Let them flow with ceaseless praise.
(verse 2)
Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love.
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
(verse 3)
Take my voice and let me sing
Always, only, for my King.
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages for Thee,
Filled with messages for Thee.
(verse 4)
Take my will and make it Thine.
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart, it is Thine own.
It shall be Thy royal Throne,
It shall be Thy royal Throne.
(verse 5)
Take my love, my Lord, I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself and I will be
Ever, only, all for Thee,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

Praying for One Another
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters.
He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake.
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil,
for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil. My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I shall dwell in the house of the LORD forever.
Let’s go to the Lord together in prayer:
- Thank the Lord for the many ways that He is our Great Shepherd from Psalm 23.
- Continue to pray for the health, physical and financial needs of others in our church family during this time of isolation.
- Continue to pray for God to show us, by His Spirit how we can best show the love of Christ to our extended family, friends, neighbors, and co-workers during this time of isolation.
- Continue to pray for the health, physical, and financial needs of our missionary families.
- Continue to pray for Pastor Weyland, Jesse, and our elders as they make decisions for our congregation.
- Continue to pray that God would give wisdom and guidance to our national, state, and local government leaders and that they would seek His face.
Song of Response
Holy, Holy, Holy (audio link)
(verse 1)
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning our song shall rise to Thee.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!
(verse 2)
Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea.
Cherubim and seraphim falling down before Thee,
Which wert and art, and evermore shalt be.
(verse 3)
Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide Thee,
Though the eye of sinful men Thy glory may not see.
Only Thou art holy, there is none besides Thee,
Perfect in power, in love, and purity.
(verse 4)
Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy name, in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!
