Luke 1:26-45; 2:1-20 Celebrate Jesus birth. No Grove Merry Christmas! December 16, 2018 No Choir or SNY The Longest Night, also called Blue Christmas, is a day in the Advent season marking the longest night of the year. On this day we hold a church service that honors people who have experienced loss during the year. Blue Christmas, as in having the blues, describes those dealing with the death of a loved one, facing life after divorce or separation, coping with the loss of a job, or any number of situations during the holidays. Not everyone is cheery at this time of the year. The Longest Night Service can bring comfort and hope to those in our congregation and community struggling with the pain of loss. The Longest Night Service will be held Friday, Dec. 21 at 6:00 p.m. in the Chapel. Merry Christmas! Father God, we ask you to be with those who weathered a hurricane or other storm this year. While their Christmas is much different than normal, may they still feel Your Presence and Love and know their hope is in You.

Dr. John M. Stapleton, Jr. Narrator Winter Rose In the silence of the winter, while stars shown high above, God sent from heaven s garden a Rose to show his love. It opened in the dark of night while the world was fast asleep. So perfect was its beauty, it made the heavens weep. The angels paused to wonder upon that winsome sight. And kings and shepherds gathered to worship in its light. They all breathed in its beauty, a precious, sweet perfume. And in the bleak midwinter the Rose began to bloom. O let us now remember when God put on the thorn. And Love restored the garden and the Winter Rose was born. When Will He Come? When will he come, the Child of the promise? When will he come, our prophet and king? When will he come, Redeemer, Messiah? When will he come and teach us to sing? Come, Lord Jesus, come today! When will he come, the Rose of Sharon? When will he come in peace to reign? When will he come in power and glory? When will he wipe our tears away? When will he come and free our hosannas? When will the glory of Zion descend? When will he reign in glory forever and set our hearts free? Gloria. When will the music begin? Glory to the Lord, blessed Redeemer, prophet and king. Let hosannas resound through the heavens. Let every voice sing alleluia. Come Lord Jesus today! Advent Cry Veni, veni, Redemptor (come Redeemer). Peace will come on the wings of a promise. Hope will come like the morning s first call. Joy will come on the winds of the Spirit. Love will come. Peace will come on the wings of the angels. Hope will come like a song in the night. Joy will blossom like roses in springtime. Love will come. Every Valley Every valley shall be lifted, every mountain be made low, and the crooked be made whole. Sound the trumpet for the glory of the Lord shall be revealed. Come, Emmanuel! Rejoice give thanks and sing! Shall come to Thee, O Israel. God s glory be revealed. Carol of Remembrance To a tiny stable lowly, long time ago came the Son of God most holy, long time ago. Angels filled the night with singing, stars were aglow, songs of joy through heaven ringing, long time ago. Little baby in a manger, prophets foretold; God s own Son and yet a stranger, long time ago.
4 Lullaby to a Rose Little Jesus, in my arms, close your weary eyes. Dream of stars and angel songs. I will stay here by your side. Sleep in peace tonight. Holy Jesus, Gift divine, I will sing to sleep your fears. You are safe, my child. I recall on the day when the angel came in mystery and heavenly power. God prepared a vessel pure to hold his precious flower. One day the world will know you are heaven s miracle; only God can make a rose. Lullay. In the Judean Hills Offertory: Away in a Manger (Wilberg) *CONGREGATIONAL HYMN: #221 In the Bleak Midwinter There will be no Children s Church this Sunday. Dance Into the Light Glory to God! Gloria! Jesus is born in Bethlehem. Creation greets her king! Arise for a star awaits to lead you through the night. Come follow the music of angels wings and dance into the light. Bethlehem, wake! The time has come. Open your hearts to the Lord. Will you turn the king away-o will he be ignored? O will you miss your miracle? Messiah comes tonight! O will you hear the angels sing and dance into the light. Gloria! Alleluia! People arise! A song awaits, a love song in the night. Come take the hand of the Morning Star and dance into the light! Rose Tree Carol Winter s frozen winds were stilled in the midst of snowing. Though the world with dark was filled, hope for life was growing. Then a rose tree blossomed fair, God s own perfect flower so rare. On the tree once bare, grew a rose so fair. O the rose tree blooming, fragrant its perfuming. Through the shadows of the night wise men searched the heavens. There they saw a wondrous light, and it seemed to beckon. Come to Bethlehem and see. Come and worship Christ the King. See the shining star spreading light afar. O the star was glowing. Brightness around them growing. People on that blessed morn sing an alleluia. Come to where the Lord was born. Let creation praises bring glory to the King of kings. Let the people sing, let the steeples ring Allelu, lift a joyful alleluia! Winter Rose Reprise Look to the Rose Rose of Sharon, what a name for the Son of God who came. If you seek God s love today, look to the Rose. Rose of Sharon, thorns your crown, image of God s grace come down. Where does God s great love abound? Look to the Rose. From dry ground God s gentle flower came to show us love s true power. Then one day upon a hill one by one the petals fell. Rose of Sharon, bloom today, may your fragrance never fade. Plant him in your heart today, look to the Rose. Lo, How a Rose Lo, how a rose e er blooming from tender stem hath sprung. Of Jesse s lineage coming as saints of old have sung. It came a flower bright amid the cold of winter, when half-spent was the night. Isaiah was foretold it, the rose I have in mind. With Mary we behold it, the virgin Mother kind. To show God s love aright she bore to us a Savior when halfspent was the night. O rose whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air. Dispel in glorious splendor the darkness everywhere. True man, yet very God, from sin and death now save us and share our every load. Alleluia! *CONGREGATIONAL HYMN: Hallelujah Chorus (Messiah) (Sheet music is available from the ushers) BENEDICTION Aiken Brass is appearing today with a gracious contribu on by Christy and Steve Kisner in honor of Mrs. Fern Kisner and their grandchildren, Robbie, Riley and Diana Street, Cooper Kisner, and Kate and Henry Kisner.
