Merciful and mighty! God in three Persons, blessed Trinity! Call to Worship J. B. Dykes/arr. L. Carlson Westminster Brass * Doxology (Trinity Hymnal 731) Old Hundredth Praise God from Whom all blessings flow; praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heav nly host; praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen. * Confession Almighty God, to know You is the fulfilment of our deepest longings and satisfaction of our most ardent desires. Yet foolishly we have sought our pleasures elsewhere. We have put the seeking of idols, which are bound to leave us feeling empty, above seeking You. We have failed to love You with all our heart, soul and mind. We have failed to love our neighbors as ourselves. Forgive us for our sins and grant that from now on we might serve You in newness of life. We pray these things in the name of Your most precious son, Jesus Christ. Amen. * Invocation * Hymn 2: O Worship the King Lyons Responsive Reading Psalm 119:1 16 (page 512) * Gloria Patri (Trinity Hymnal 734) Gloria Patri (Meineke) Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost; as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen, Amen. * Apostles Creed I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Ghost, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried; He descended into hell. The third day He rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God, the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.

3 Offertory: Before the Throne of God Above V. Cook/arr. C. Howland Before the throne of God above, I have a strong and perfect plea, A great High Priest Whose name is Love Who ever lives and pleads for me. My name is graven on His hands. My name is written on His heart. I know that while in heaven He stands no tongue can bid me thence depart. Behold Him there, the risen Lamb, my perfect spotless righteousness! The great unchangeable I Am, the King of glory and of grace. One with Himself, I cannot die. My soul is purchased with His blood. My life is hid with Christ on high, with Christ my Savior and my God.

T H E S H O R T E R C AT E C H I S M, circa 1647 One of the documents that explains what our church and denomination believe is known as the Shorter Catechism. We are including in the bulletin a series of questions and answers dealing with some of the essential doctrines of our faith. Question 24: How doth Christ executeth the office of a prophet? Answer: Christ executeth the office of a prophet in revealing to us, by his word and Spirit, the will of God for our salvation. P R O J E C T O F T H E M O N T H No Falling Word Imagine the driver on the Schuylkill flipping on his radio and pausing as he stumbles upon that inimitable Scottish voice talking about the prophet Isaiah. For the last year and a half, a generous bequest has enabled Tenth to broadcast No Falling Word, a radio program featuring the preaching of. The program has freely presented God s word to neighbors who might not otherwise hear it, and this is important because Scripture tells us faith comes by hearing. We would like to be able to continue offering the gospel via this broadcast to our Philadelphia friends, but now need funds to continue. If you would like to help make this possible, please place your check made out to Tenth with September Project of the Month in the memo line in the collection plate or oak boxes at the sanctuary entrance. * Congregation standing

4 E V E N I N G W O R S H I P 6 : 3 0 P M Soli Deo Gloria: Prelude at 6:15 PM My Shepherd Will Supply My Need My Shepherd will supply my need, Jehovah is His name; In pastures fresh He makes me feed beside the living stream. He brings my wandering spirit back when I forsake His ways, And leads me, for His mercy s sake, in paths of truth and grace. O Word of God Incarnate O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high, O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky; We praise thee for the radiance that from the hallowed page, A lantern to our footsteps shines on from age to age. arr. K. Kaiser arr. K. Kaiser Like a River Glorious arr. K. Kaiser Like a river glorious is God s perfect peace, over all victorious in its bright increase; Perfect, yet it floweth fuller every day, perfect, yet it groweth deeper all the way. Stayed upon Jehovah, hearts are fully blest, finding, as He promised, perfect peace and rest. Since I Have Been Redeemed arr. K. Kaiser I have a song I love to sing, since I have been redeemed, Of my Redeemer, Savior King, since I have been redeemed. Since I have been redeemed, since I have been redeemed, I will glory in His name, Since I have been redeemed, I will glory in the Savior s name. Richard Harlow, cello Soli Deo Gloria is a motto that has been used since the time of the Protestant Reformation. It is the culminating phrase of five Solas and means Glory to God Alone. Recognizing that all glory belongs to God and that we, even at our best, are but instruments of His grace, is the true, Christian world-life view. Such was the perspective of the great church musician Johann Sebastian Bach ( ), who regularly began his compositional work, whether sacred or secular, by writing JJ (Jesu, juva Jesus, help me ) on the first page of a manuscript and sdg at the end. Since 1995 we have employed this phrase as the title of our fifteen-minute musical prelude to evening worship. SDG affords musicians (singers and instrumentalists alike) the opportunity to give back to God from the gifts He has given them. At the same time, the music is intended to encourage the congregation and to be a public testimony of our desire as musicians to honor Him with our musical offerings. This even extends past vocal music with sacred text to the untexted beauty of instrumental music, which can also be offered to the glory of God. Through the doctrine of common grace, such music demonstrates for us not only the skill of the player, but also the creative genius with which God has endowed so many composers, whether or not they were conscious of this gift or were intentional in their use of it for His glory.

5 Welcome Call to Worship Invocation * Hymn 296: All Hail the Power of Jesus Name! Diadem * Prayer of Confession Heavenly Father, loving King, our thoughts and motives, our words and actions cannot be hidden from Your sight. Our pride and self-pity, our cowardice and sloth, our anger and envy are laid bare before Your eyes. We open ourselves to You and humbly ask for Your forgiveness. Do not look upon our wrongdoing, but cover us in the righteousness of Christ. Reassure us that His blood is our peace, His death is our freedom, and His Spirit is our power; and let our hearts know that in Your service is perfect freedom. Through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. * The Gospel s Assurance of Pardon Romans 8:15 17 ESV For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, Abba! Father! The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. * Doxology (Trinity Hymnal 732) Tallis Canon (Children age 4 and 5 may leave to attend their program.) Praise God from Whom all blessings flow; praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heav nly host: praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Prayer of Preparation God s Word Read John 12:36b 50 (page 899) * Hymn 497: I Need Thee, Precious Jesus Meirionydd * Offering Prayer Offertory: Bless the Lord, O My Soul M. Ippolitof-Ivanof Bless thou the Lord, O my soul. Bless the Lord and forget not all His benefits: Bless thou the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me bless His holy Name. He is full of compassion and mercy, long suffering and great in goodness. He will not always be chiding nor keepeth He, His wrath forever. Bless thou the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me bless His holy Name. O blessed art Thou, O Lord. Tenth Church Choir Sermon Series: That You May Believe Who Has Believed?

6 TENTH PRESS SEPTEMBER 13, 2015 Music at Tenth By Colin Howland, Music Director and Organist Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of the godly! (Psalm 149:1). Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God (Colossians 3:16). Oh give thanks to the Lord; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the peoples! Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works! (Psalm 105:1 2). The Bible clearly teaches us that God s people are to be a singing people. Music is fitting for worship because it involves the whole person: heart, mind, soul, and strength. Through singing we both learn the faith and give expression of our faith. Music has a threefold purpose at Tenth Church. Music is an important part of corporate worship, music plays a critical role in Christian discipleship, and music is an effective means of outreach into our city and the world. Music in corporate worship Music is probably best thought of as part of the prayer life of the Church. The Psalms give us a glimpse of the richness and variety of sung prayer: praise, lament, confession, thanksgiving, frustration, joy, sorrow, to name but a few. Notice also how Psalm 149 encourages singing in the assembly. Corporate worship is the primary purpose of music in the Church. As a congregation, we gather as part of the much greater assembly of God s people around the world as well as those saints who worship him in heaven with the company of angels and the heavenly hosts! The Bible also allows for individual musical expressions that build up the body: when you come together, each one has a hymn (1 Corinthians 14:26). Even as we have individuals pray in a prayer gathering and that edifies those who are present, the same is true of those who offer musical solos. Music and discipleship A close look at the songs of the Bible indicates that we praise God by singing the truth which he has revealed about himself back to him in faith and love. For example, in Exodus 3:15 God reveals his name to Moses and says, This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations. David then, reflecting back on the meaning of God s name, is able to say in Psalm 8:1, O Lord (God s name!), our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! Singing helps us to hide God s word in our hearts, and his word does not return to him void. The choirs of Tenth Church exist not only to give praise in the assembly, but also as a means to disciple those who participate in choir. Music and outreach Psalm 105 puts singing praise in the context of making known God s deeds among the peoples. Music is a powerful communicator and a wonderful medium to winsomely convey the truth about God to the culture. For example, people will happily listen to Handel s Messiah or Mendelssohn s Elijah simply because of the great aesthetic quality of the music, but they will also be hearing the truth of God s word beautifully presented in the musical rendering. Tenth s concert series has been an effective means of telling God s wondrous works to the city of Philadelphia and beyond. Opportunities for service Tenth Church has musical opportunities for people of every age all beginning today. If you or someone you know sings or plays an instrument, please contact me at chowland@tenth.org for more information on how to serve in the music ministry.
