Call to Worship and Invocation
Hymn: “Teach Me Thy Way, O Lord” Words and Music: Benjamin M. Ramsey. 1919
Teach me Thy way, O Lord, Teach me Thy way!
Thy guiding grace afford, Teach me Thy way!
Help me to walk aright, More by faith, less by sight;
Lead me with heav’nly light, Teach me Thy way!
When I am sad at heart, Teach me Thy way!
When earthly joys depart, Teach me Thy way!
In hours of loneliness, In times of dire distress,
In failure or success, Teach me Thy way!
When doubts and fears arise, Teach me Thy way!
When storms o’erspread the skies, Teach me Thy way!
Shine through the cloud and rain, Through sorrow, toil and pain;
Make Thou my pathway plain, Teach me Thy way!
Long as my life shall last, Teach me Thy way!
Where’er my lot be cast, Teach me Thy way!
Until the race is run, Until the journey’s done,
Until the crown is won, Teach me Thy way!
Scripture: Matthew 4:12-23

Prayer
Hymn: “O Jesus, I Have Promised” Words: John E Bode, 1866, Music: Arthur H Mann, 1881
O Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
Be Thou forever near me,
My master and my friend;
I shall not fear the battle
If Thou art by my side,
Nor wander from the pathway
If Thou wilt be my guide.
O let me hear Thee speaking
In accents clear and still,
Above the storms of passion,
The murmurs of self will.
O speak to reassure me,
To hasten or control;
O speak, and make me listen,
Thou guardian of my soul.
O Jesus, Thou hast promised
To all who follow Thee
That where Thou art in glory
There shall Thy servant be.
And Jesus, I have promised
To serve Thee to the end;
O give me grace to follow,
My master and my friend.
Benediction
