Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee HYMN # 90
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flow rs before Thee, Opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness; Drive the dark of doubt away; Giver of immortal gladness, Fill us with the light of day!
All Thy works with joy surround Thee, Earth and heav n reflect Thy rays, Stars and angels sing around Thee, Center of unbroken praise. Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain Call us to rejoice in Thee.
Thou art giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, Ocean depth of happy rest! Thou our Father, Christ our Brother - All who live in love are Thine; Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine.
Mortals join the mighty chorus Which the morning stars began; Love divine is reigning o er us, Leading us with mercy s hand. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music leads us sunward In the triumph song of life.
THE CALL TO WORSHIP (Psalm 71:19, 22-23)
Minister: Your righteousness, O God, reaches the high heavens. People: You who have done great things, O God, who is like You?
Minister: I will also praise You with the harp for Your faithfulness, O my God; People: I will sing praises to You with the lyre, O Holy One of Israel.
Minister: My lips will shout for joy, when I sing praises to You; People: And also My soul, which You have redeemed.
Prayer of Confession O most great, most just and gracious God; You have promised mercy through Jesus Christ to all that repent and believe in Him. We confess that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.
We have neglected Your holy worship. We have not sought first Your kingdom. You have revealed Your wonderful love to us in Christ and offered us pardon and salvation in Him, but we have turned away.
We have run into temptation, and the sin that we should have hated, we have committed. Have mercy on us, most merciful Father! In Your Son is our salvation, in Your promises our hope.
Take us for Your children and give us the Spirit of Your Son, through Jesus Christ our only Savior. Lord, hear our prayers.
SILENT PRAYERS OF THANKSGIVING AND CONFESSION
Words of Assurance and Pardon of the Gospel (Psalm 145:13-14)
Minister: Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and Your dominion endures throughout all generations.
The LORD is faithful in all His words and kind in all His works. The LORD upholds all who are falling and raises up all who are bowed down.

Proclamation of Scripture: (Matthew 28:18-20 NLT)
Jesus came and told his disciples, I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
