3 SEATED God calls us to confess our sin from John 10:1415; Matthew 11:2830 & # # # # 4 & # # # # Ho Ho Jesus said, I am the Good Shepherd. I know my own, and my own know me, and I lay down my life for the sheep. Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. We confess our sin All (sing): Trisagion (below); sing 3 Zmes All (sing): O Holy One, you hold the universe in the palm of your hand, and your infinite greatness no one can fathom. But we have thought liele of you and ignored your immensity, power, and glory. You rule the nazons and all of our lives. But we have sought first our plans and not your kingdom. You offer us strength and courage for every challenge. But we oien choose to live by our weakness, and our lives are filled with anxious fear. You give us hope for a resurrected world to come. But we oien refuse to wait for you in hope and seek to sa9sfy ourselves in our own 9me. Lord, have mercy on us. (silent prayers of confession) Holy Father, please forgive us for the sake of your Son, our Redeemer. Renew us and lead us by your Spirit to remember your greatness and abide in your love at all Zmes. Strengthen us, help us, and uphold us with your strong hand, so that we can run and not be weary and walk and not grow faint in all the ways that you call us to serve you.

4 STANDING (IF ABLE) God declares our forgiveness from 2 Timothy 1:910; 2 Peter 1:3 God saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence. For all who have turned from sin in sorrow and look to God for mercy, this is God s gia. In Jesus Christ, God loves you, God forgives you, God accepts you, and God rejoices over you as beloved daughters and sons. Hallelujah, Amen! We praise God Hallelujah, What a Savior Text and Tune: Philip P. Bliss 1875 Hymnal #175 SEATED Easter Anthem Music: William Billings Chancel Choir The Lord is ris'n indeed. Hallelujah! Now is Christ risen from the dead and become the first fruits of them that slept. Hallelujah! And did he rise? Hear, O ye nazons, hear it, O ye dead. He rose, he burst the bars of death, he burst the bars of death and triumph'd o'er the grave. Then I rose, then first humanity triumphant passed the crystal ports of light, and seiz'd eternal youth. Hail, all immortal hail, hail! Heaven, all lavish of strange gias to man, thine's all the glory, man's the boundless bliss. page 3
