September 27 Livestream – Stewardship Week 2

Thank you for joining us on our continuing exploration of generosity and love, as we make our journey through this year’s stewardship campaign.

This week’s order for worship:

Prelude/ Anna DiVesta

Invocation (Call to Worship; Prayer) / Pastor Dan

Hymn/ “O Love That Will Not Let Me Go” #439

O Love That Will Not Let Me Go

1. O Love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee;
   I give Thee back the life I owe, That in Thine ocean depths its flow
   May richer, fuller be.
2. O Light that foll’west all my way, I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
   My heart restores its borrowed ray, That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day
   May brighter, fairer be.
3. O Joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to Thee;
   I trace the rainbow through the rain, And feel the promise is not vain
   That morn shall tearless be.
4. O Cross that lightest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee;
   I lay in dust life’s glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red
   Life that shall endless be.

Hymn/ “Love Lifted Me” #317

Love Lifted Me

1. I was sinking deep in sin, Far from the peaceful shore,
   Very deeply stained within, Sinking to rise no more;
   But the Master of the sea Heard my despairing cry,
   From the waters lifted me, Now safe am I.

CHORUS
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.
Love lifted me! Love lifted me!
When nothing else could help, Love lifted me.

2. All my heart to Him I give, Ever to Him I’ll cling,
   In His blessed presence live, Ever His praises sing.
   Love so mighty and so true Merits my soul’s best songs;
   Faithful, loving service too To Him belongs.

CHORUS

3. Souls in danger, look above, Jesus completely saves;;
   He will lift you by His love Out of the angry waves.
   He’s the Master of the sea, Billows His will obey;
   He our Savior wants to be – Be saved today.

Benediction / Pastor Dan

Think About His Love

Think about His love, think about His goodness. Think about His grace that’s bro’t us through.
For as high as the heavens above, so great is the measure of our Father’s love.
Great is the measure of our Father’s love.

Hymn/ “I Then Shall Live” (#133)

I Then Shall Live

1. I then shall live as one who’s been forgiven; I’ll walk with joy to know my debts are paid.
   I know my name is clear before my Father; I am His child, and I am not afraid.
   So greatly pardoned, I’ll forgive my brother; The law of lover I gladly will obey.
2. I then shall live as one who’s learned compassion; I’ve been so loved that I’ll risk loving, too.
   I know how fear builds walls instead of bridges; I dare to see another’s poinot of view.
   And when relationships demand commitment, Then I’ll be there to care and follow through.
3. Your kingdom come around and thru and in me, Your pow’r and glory, let them shine thru me;
   Your pow’r and glory, let them shine thru me; Your Hallowed Name, O may I bear with honor,
   And may Your living Kingdom come in me.
   The Bread of Life, O may I share with honor, And may you fee a hungry world thru me.

Benediction/ Dan

Gospel Reading: Matthew 18:15-20

Sermon/Prayer/ Dan

Hymn/ “To God Be the Glory” (# 79)

To God be the glory, great things He hath done,
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the Lifegate that all may go in.

REFRAIN
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father thro’ Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He hath done.

2. O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
   To every believer the promise of God;
   The vilest offender who truly believes,
   That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

REFRAIN

3. Great things He hath taught us, great things He hath done,
   And great our rejoicing thro’ Jesus the Son;
   But purer, and higher, and greater will be
   Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.

Benediction/ Dan
