DECEMBER 10, :00AM, 10:45AM Sanctuary and Fellowship Hall We celebrate God s presence with us God invites us to worship him in spirit and in truth WELCOME & INVOCATION CALL TO WORSHIP PSALM 13 Leader: How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, lest my enemy say, I have prevailed over him, lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken. People: But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me. FOR YOUR FAMILY While you worship, your children will be loved and taught in an engaging environment. Classrooms are located on the lower floor; the nursing mothers room is on the left as you exit the Sanctuary. Jr. High (grades 7-8) meets at Cooper MS, 977 Balls Hill Road.

We sing praises to God for who he is and for what he has done SONGS OF PRAISE O COME, O COME EMMANUEL O come, O come Emmanuel, and ransom captive Israel, That mourns in lonely exile here, until the Son of God appear. Refrain: Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel. O come, thou Dayspring, come and cheer our spirits by thine advent here; Disperse the gloomy clouds of night, and death s dark shadows put to flight. Refrain O come, thou Wisdom from on high, and order all things far and nigh; To us the path of knowledge show, and cause us in her ways to go. Refrain O come, Desire of nations, bind all peoples in one heart and mind; Bid envy, strife, and quarrels cease; fill all the world with heaven s peace. Refrain 2x Words & Music by Latin hymn tr. by J.M. Neale, 1851, alt, 1961; Music VENI EMMANUEL; CCLI License #

3 LET ALL MORTAL FLESH KEEP SILENCE Let all mortal flesh keep silence, and with fear and trembling stand; Ponder nothing earthly-minded, for with blessing in his hand, Christ our God to earth descendeth, our full homage to demand. King of kings, yet born of Mary, as of old on earth he stood, Lord of Lords, in human vesture, in the body and the blood, He will give to all the faithful his own self for heav nly food. Rank on rank the host of heaven spreads its vanguard on the way, As the Light of light descendeth from the realms of endless day, That the pow rs of hell may vanish as the darkness clears away. God gives us a visible sign to confirm his covenant promise, and we respond with faith in him SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM SANCTUARY 9:00 service Beau William, covenant son of Patrick & Noelle Glaze Jacob Junghoon, covenant son of Arden & Gloria Yang 10:45 service Dorothea Pearl, covenant daughter of Shane & Daphne Birdsinger Alexis Ruth, covenant daughter of Stephen & Melissa Simmons 5:15 service David Hutchings, covenant son of Russell & Gracelyn Thomasson We acknowledge our need of forgiveness and renewal through the cleansing blood of Jesus At his feet the six-winged seraph; cherubim with sleepless eye, Veil their faces to the presence, as with ceaseless voice they cry, Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia, Lord Most High! Words from Liturgy of St. James, Adapt. by G. Moultrie; Music: PICARDY French melody; CCLI License # CONFESSION OF SIN Almighty and gracious Father, we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed. You have revealed yourself to us in Scripture, but we have disregarded you and ignored your word. Too often we have asked you to bless what we do rather than seeking to do what you bless. You have called us to pray without ceasing, but we have forgotten to pray. You have called us to remain faithful in all things, yet we have doubted your goodness and care. Forgive us, Lord. By the power of your Holy Spirit, help us to trust in you in all circumstances. Help us to humble ourselves under your mighty and loving hand. Turn our hearts back to you, and remind us of the true gift of grace in Christ as we live in this gap between his first and second coming. In his name we pray, Amen. We welcome new members to our church family NEW MEMBER RECEPTION 5:15 SERVICE Alexandria Chris & Melinda Bargery Annandale Alex & Ashley Guinn Taylor Arlington Michelle Davis Benjamin & Kathleen Gotchel Matthew Gundy Lacy McAlister Lauren O Connor Arya Seghatoleslami Taylor Thornburg Burke Kittie Helmick Stephanie Helmick Shane & Bree Steiner Falls Church Russell & Gracelyn Thomasson, with John, Annelise, and Lyla* Thomasson Fairfax Jeff & Emily Brewer Sarah Geary Brad & Jen Schwenzer with Elizabeth* Schwenzer Herndon Kayla Becker McLean Vince & Alice Au-Yeung Stephen Kehoe Corban Spraker Reston Rachel Butler *Joining with baptism God reminds us of his promise of forgiveness in Christ ASSURANCE OF PARDON MICAH 7:18 Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of his inheritance? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in steadfast love. SONG OF REJOICING THE DOXOLOGY 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. Words by T. Kent, 1709; Music OLD HUNDREDTH from L. Bourgeois s Genevan Psalter, 1551; CCLI License #

4 We enjoy and extend the peace of the gospel to one another We give thanks to God and bring our needs to him As recipients of his grace, we give back to God a portion of what is already his GIVING OF THE PEACE Leader: Because the Lord has pardoned our iniquity, we now have peace with God and with one another. May the peace of Christ be with you! People: And also with you! CONGREGATIONAL PRAYER You can join us in praying for our community and world this morning; the Flock Notes are on page 9 in your worship guide. If you would like to submit a prayer request, fill out the prayer request card and place it in the offering plate. If you would like someone to pray with you after the service, men and women from our leadership will be available in the front. PRESENTATION OF OUR TITHES AND OFFERINGS We want to be a generous community. In response to the grace we ve received, we seek to give cheerfully, diligently, proportionately, and sacrificially (2 Cor 8:1-15). Many of our people give online (mcleanpres.org); you can also place your gift in the offering plate. Please also fill out the Keeping Connected pad and pass it down your row and back. OFFERTORY I WONDER AS I WANDER Chancel Choir; Jane-Anne Tucker, soprano (Sanctuary) I wonder as I wander out under the sky, How Jesus the Savior did come for to die, For poor orn ry people like you and like I. I wonder as I wander, out under the sky. When Mary birthed Jesus twas in a cow s stall With wise men and farmers and shepherds and all, And high from God s heaven a star s light did fall, And the promise of the ages, they then did recall. God speaks to us through the reading of his word If Jesus had wanted for any wee thing, A star in the sky or a bird on the wing, Or all of God s angels in heaven for to sing, He surely could have it, for he was the King. I wonder as I wander out under the sky, How Jesus the Savior did come for to die, For poor orn ry people like you and like I, I wonder as I wander, out under the sky. Tune: Appalachian Carol, arr. J. J. Niles; 1934 John J. Niles I WILL RISE Congregation (Fellowship Hall) There s a peace I ve come to know, though my heart and flesh may fail. There s an anchor for my soul. I can say, It is well. Prechorus: Jesus has overcome and the grave is overwhelmed. The victory is won, he is risen from the dead. Chorus: And I will rise when he calls my name, no more sorrow, no more pain. I will rise on eagle s wings, before my God fall on my knees and rise. I will rise. There s a day that s drawing near when this darkness breaks to light; And the shadows disappear, and my faith shall be my eyes. Prechorus, Chorus Bridge: And I hear the voice of many angels sing, Worthy is the Lamb! And I hear the cry of ev ry longing heart, Worthy is the Lamb! (repeat) Chorus I will rise!

5 We ready our hearts to receive the preaching of God s word SONG OF PREPARATION ALL GLORY BE FOREVER God speaks to us through the preaching of his word SERMON ADVENT: ALL OUR EXPECTATIONS 3. Michal: When Dreams Don t Come True We respond to God s word through song SONG OF SENDING ALL MUST BE WELL Through the love of God our Savior, all will be well; Free and changeless is his favor, all is well; Precious is the blood that healed us, perfect is the grace that sealed us, Strong the hand stretched forth to shield us, all must be well. Though we pass through tribulation, all will be well; Ours is such a full salvation, all is well; Happy still in God confiding, fruitful if in Christ abiding, Steadfast through the Spirit s guiding, all must be well. We expect a bright tomorrow, all will be well; Faith can sing through days of sorrow, all is well; On our Father s love relying, Jesus ev ry need supplying, Yes in living or in dying, all must be well. On our Father s love relying, Jesus ev ry need supplying, Yes in living or in dying, all must be well. CCLI Song # ; Words by M Bowley-Peters, Alt. by M.S. Smith; Music by M.S.
