Prelude: “Give Me Jesus” a Traditional Spiritual arranged by Paul Johnson
Welcome and Announcements
Call to Worship led by Richard Freeman
Leader: Behold the amazing gift of love the Father hath bestowed
On us, the sinful sons of men, to call us sons of God!
All: Concealed as yet this honor lies, by this dark world unknown,
A world that knew not when he came, even God’s eternal Son.
Leader: High is the rank we now possess, but higher we shall rise.
Though what we shall hereafter be is hid from mortal eyes.
All: Our souls, we know, when he appears, shall bear his image bright.
For all his glory, full disclosed, shall open to our sight.
Leader: A hope so great, and so divine, may trials well endure.
All: And purge the soul from sense and sin, as Christ himself is pure.
(From a Scottish paraphrase of I John 1:1-3)
