Prelude I Sing the Mighty Pwer f Gd Welcme & Annuncements Call t Wrship - Psalm 19 One: All 1 The heavens declare the glry f Gd; the skies prclaim the wrk f his hands. 2 Day after day they pur frth speech; night after night they reveal knwledge. 3 They have n speech, they use n wrds; n sund is heard frm them. 4 Yet their vice ges ut int all the earth, One: their wrds t the ends f the wrld. In the heavens Gd has pitched a tent fr the sun. 5 It is like a bridegrm cming ut f his chamber, like a champin rejicing t run his curse. 6 It rises at ne end f the heavens

3 All: and makes its circuit t the ther; nthing is deprived f its warmth. 7 The law f the Lrd is perfect, refreshing the sul. The statutes f the Lrd are trustwrthy, making wise the simple. 8 The precepts f the Lrd are right, giving jy t the heart. The cmmands f the Lrd are radiant, giving light t the eyes. 9 The fear f the Lrd is pure, One: All: enduring frever. The decrees f the Lrd are firm, and all f them are righteus. 10 They are mre precius than gld, than much pure gld; they are sweeter than hney, than hney frm the hneycmb. 11 By them yur servant is warned; in keeping them there is great reward. 12 But wh can discern their wn errrs? Frgive my hidden faults. 13 Keep yur servant als frm willful sins; may they nt rule ver me. Then I will be blameless, inncent f great transgressin. 14 May these wrds f my muth and this meditatin f my heart be pleasing in yur sight, Lrd, my Rck and my Redeemer. *Hymn N. 270 Wnderful Wrds f Life Children s Chat & Greeting Time Remembering Our Sldiers Prayer & The Lrd s Prayer [using debts and debtrs] *Hymn N. 272 Thy Wrd
