2 1 st Sunday after Pentecost June 11, 2017 WELCOME, ANNOUNCEMENTS & OPENING PRAYER OPENING SONGS Blessed Assurance Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine! O what a foretaste of glory divine! Heir of salvation, purchase of God, Born of his Spirit, washed in his blood. Refrain: This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long; This is my story, this is my song, Praising my Savior all the day long. Perfect submission, perfect delight, Visions of rapture now burst on my sight; Angels descending bring from above Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. Refrain. Perfect submission, all is at rest; I in my Savior am happy and blest, Watching and waiting, looking above, Filled with his goodness, lost in his love. Refrain. The Heart of Worship When the music fades, all is stripped away And I simply come. Longing just to bring something that's of worth That will bless your heart. I'll bring you more than a song For a song in itself Is not what you have required You search much deeper within Through the way things appear You're looking into my heart. Refrain: I'm coming back to the heart of worship And it's all about you, It's all about you, Jesus

3 I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it When it's all about you, It's all about you, Jesus. King of endless worth, no one could express How much you deserve. Though I'm weak and poor, all I have is yours Every single breath. I'll bring you more than a song For a song in itself Is not what you have required You search much deeper within Through the way things appear You're looking into my heart. Refrain. Repeat. WE WELCOME ONE ANOTHER MORNING OFFERING How Beautiful. Paris DOXOLOGY Praise God, from whom all blessings flow; praise him, all creatures here below; praise him above, ye heavenly host; praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.
