Order of Worship - Sunday, April 19

Welcome and Announcements: Adam White

Prelude:   “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross”

Call to Worship           Davis Rhodes

In you, O LORD, I seek refuge; do not let me ever be put to shame; 

In your righteousness deliver me.

Incline your ear to me; rescue me speedily. 

Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me.

You are indeed my rock and my fortress; 

For your name's sake lead me and guide me,

Take me out of the darkness that is hidden from me, 

For you are my refuge, my strength, my hope, the living God of my heart

Hymn                              “Easter People, Raise Your Voices”       UMH 304

1. Easter people, raise your voices, sounds of heaven in earth should ring. Christ has brought us heaven’s choices; heavenly music, let it ring: "Alleluia! Alleluia!" Easter people, let us sing.

2. Fear of death can no more stop us from our pressing here below. For our Risen Lord empowers us to triumph over every foe. Alleluia! Alleluia! On to victory now we go.

3. Every day to us is Easter, with its resurrection song. When the cares of life o'erwhelm us, Easter people, sing this song: "Alleluia! Alleluia!" Everlasting triumph song.

Each petition: “Lord…” All Respond: Hear Our Prayers

Our Father, which art in heaven,

Hallowed be thy Name.

Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth,

As it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread. 

And forgive us our trespasses,

As we forgive those that trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

But deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom,

The power, and the glory, forever. Amen
