.......You Are Alpha And Omega
“ We will glorify the King of Kings" .....#2087
...Klaus Mueller-Musical Director/Organist
...Walter Williams - Drummer
We will glorify the King of kings
We will glorify the Lamb
We will glorify the Lord of lords
Who is the great I am.
Lord Jehovah reigns in majesty
We will bow before His throne
We will worship Him in righteousness
We will worship Him alone.
He is Lord of Heaven, Lord of Earth
He is Lord of all who live
He is Lord above the universe
All praise to Him we give.
Hallelujah to the King of kings
Hallelujah to the Lamb
Hallelujah to the Lord of Lords
Who is the great I am.
We will glorify the King of kings
We will glorify the Lamb
We will glorify the Lord of lords
Who is the great I am.
OPENING PRAYER:.....
..................Rev. Charles Mayhew
CALL TO WORSHIP:
Leader: Give thanks to the Lord, for God is good, whose steadfast love endures forever.
People: Those gathered from east and west and north and south are the redeemed of the Lord.
Leader: Those who cried to the Lord in times of trouble God delivered from their distress.
People: Let them thank the Lord for steadfast love and wonderful works to humankind.
ALL: We here at UHPC have come to
worship God!
HYMN 1: "Praise Ye the Lord" #258
PRAYER FOR CONFESSION:
Merciful God, we confess that we have often failed to be an obedient church. We have not done your will, we have broken your law, we have rebelled against your love. We have not loved our neighbors, and have refused to hear the cry of the needy. Forgive us, we pray, and free us for joyful obedience; through Jesus Christ our Lord. O God in your mercy please accept this prayer of confession in the name of Jesus the Christ. Amen.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON:
Leader: Here the good news! The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross that we might be dead to sin and be alive to all that is good. In the name of Jesus Christ, we are forgiven. Glory to God. Amen.
PASSING THE PEACE:
Leader: Since God has forgiven us in Christ, let us forgive one another. The peace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all of you.
People: And peace be with you also.
“ I’VE GOT PEACE LIKE RIVER”.. #368
I've got PEACE like a river (3Xs) in my soul - repeat
I've got JOY like a fountain(3Xs) in my soul - repeat
I've got LOVE like an ocean(3Xs) in my soul- repeat

SONG FOR ILLUMINATION:
........."Open Our Eyes" #2086
Open our eyes, Lord,
we want to see Jesus,
to reach out and touch him,
and say that we love him.
Open our ears, Lord,
and help us to listen.
Open our eyes, Lord,
we want to see Jesus
PRAYER FOR ILLUMINATION:....
Gracious God, give us humble, teachable, and obedient hearts, that we may receive what you have revealed, and do what you have commanded. Since we do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from your mouth, make us hunger for this heavenly food, that it may nourish us today in the ways of eternal life; through Jesus Christ, the bread of heaven. Amen.

HYMN 2:.. "Every Time I Feel The Spirit" #315
[Refrain]
Every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
Yes, every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
1. Upon the mountain, when my Lord spoke,
Out of God's mouth came fire and smoke.
Looked all around me, it looked so fine,
Till I asked my Lord if all was mine.
Every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
Yes, every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
2. Jordan river, chilly and cold,
It chills the body but not the soul.
There is but one train upon this track;
It runs to heaven and then right back.
Every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
Yes, every time I feel the Spirit moving in my heart I will pray.
