ASSEMBLE IN GOD S NAME WELCOME Reverend Sam Martin PRELUDE Praeambulum Girolamo Frescobaldi INTROIT We Walk His Way John Bell CALL TO WORSHIP adapted from Psalm 118 Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever. Let Israel say: "His love endures forever." The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone; The LORD has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. Blessed is He who comes in the name of the LORD. From the house of the LORD we bless You The LORD is God and He has made His light shine upon us. With boughs in hand, join in the festal procession up to the altar. You are my God, and I will give You thanks. You are my God, and I will exalt You. Give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; His love endures forever. *PROCESSIONAL HYMN 197 Hosanna, Loud Hosanna ELLACOMBE CONFESSION O Lord, who on this day entered the rebellious city that later rejected You, we confess that our wills are as rebellious as Jerusalem's. Our faith is often more show than substance; our hearts are in need of cleansing. Have mercy on us, Son of David, Savior of our lives. Help us to lay at Your feet all that we have and all that we are, trusting You to forgive what is sinful, to heal what is broken, to welcome our praises and to receive us as Your own.

RESPOND TO GOD S GRACE *HYMN 198 Ride On! Ride On! Ride On in Majesty! ST. DROSTANE *AFFIRMATION OF FAITH 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 at 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. PASTORAL PRAYER LORD S PRAYER Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. OFFERTORY Precious Lord, Take My Hand arr.
