Call to Worship & Invocation
Hymn: “More Love to Thee” Words: Elizabeth P. Prentiss, 1856, Music: W. Howard Doane, 1870
More love to Thee, O Christ, More love to Thee!
Hear Thou the prayer I make On bended knee.
This is my earnest plea: More love, O Christ, to Thee;
More love to Thee, More love to Thee!
Once earthly joy I craved, Sought peace and rest;
Now Thee alone I seek, Give what is best.
This all my prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, More love to Thee!
Then shall my latest breath Whisper Thy praise;
This be the parting cry My heart shall raise;
This still its prayer shall be: More love, O Christ to Thee;
More love to Thee, More love to Thee!
Scripture: Luke 9:51-56

Prayer
Hymn: “Living for Jesus” Words: Thomas O. Chisholm, 1917, Music: C. Harold Lowden, 1917
Living for Jesus, a life that is true,
Striving to please Him in all that I do;
Yielding allegiance, glad hearted and free,
This is the pathway of blessing for me.
Refrain
O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to Thee;
For Thou, in Thy atonement, Didst give Thyself for me.
I own no other master; My heart shall be Thy throne.
My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone.
Living for Jesus who died in my place,
Bearing on Calvary my sin and disgrace;
Such love constrains me to answer His call,
Follow His leading and give Him my all. Refrain
Living for Jesus, wherever I am,
Doing each duty in His holy name;
Willing to suffer affliction and loss,
Deeming each trial a part of my cross. Refrain
Living for Jesus through earth’s little while,
My dearest treasure, the light of His smile;
Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem,
Bringing the weary to find rest in Him. Refrain
Benediction
