SPECIAL SONG SERVICE

WORSHIP NOTES

Welcome to Grace!

Our mission at Grace is to teach the inspired and inerrant Word of God, to proclaim that Jesus Christ is the crucified and risen Savior of the world, and to nurture believers for lives of Christian service.

Check out the GRACE WEBSITE at GraceLutheranSAZ.org

We are very pleased that you have joined us for worship today! We pray that this time will be a blessing for you as God comes to you with his Word and promises and as you offer him your thanks and praise.

The order of worship we will follow is printed in this worship folder for you to follow along and participate. You’ll notice that the service is a dialogue between God and us, his people. The pastor speaks to God along with the congregation and also speaks the Word of God to the people. LARGE PRINT worship folders are available at the entrances for those who desire them.

Today we are using elements from the Christian Worship (2021) hymnal. You will find these blue worship books in the hymnal racks in each pew. You will be asked to open the hymnal to participate in parts of the service today.

There is no cost to park in our parking lot during Sunday morning worship services. If you receive a citation by mistake, please let our office staff know so it can be cleared.

GUEST MUSICIAN—STEPHEN BAUTISTA

We thank WELS musician Stephen Bautista and his daughter Marissa Renée for leading our worship music today. Stephen travels the country with his Christian music ministry and seeks to enlighten the lost and encourage the found with original, Christ-centered music. Marissa is Stephen’s second oldest daughter and has been singing with him since she was 16 years old. She is not only a talented singer, but also a gifted artist. Baskets are available at each exit if you are able to give a donation in support of their ministry. You are also encouraged to stop at the table in the narthex to purchase CDs of Stephen’s music. You can also visit stephenbautistamusic.com to donate, purchase digital downloads of his albums, and learn more about his music ministry.

PRAYER BEFORE WORSHIP

Praise to you, O God, maker of all things. You gave me life and breath. You sent your Son to cleanse me from sin and your Spirit to make me glad. Thank you for providing me with all that I need to live. To you be honor and glory and praise now and forever. Amen.

Worship the L with gladness; come before him with joyful songs!

WELCOME

OPENING SONG—The Most Beautiful Thing

The warm subtle hues of a delicate bloom

And a song bird that greets the new morning

A cascading stream flowing through fields of green

And the mountains that rise up before them

In oh so many ways

The beauty of life has shined on my face

And yet I know of one thing

That surpasses by far the beauty I’ve seen

(Chorus) The most beautiful thing I know

Is the cross with a Savior who died for us all

And the blood that flowed

From His hands and feet

And the wounds He bore

So that we’d be redeemed

This is the most beautiful thing

I’ve stood on the edge of a grand precipice

Overwhelmed by the span of creation

Then sat teary eyed while the sun paints the sky

As it settles beyond the horizon

And I’m still so amazed

At the beauty that life has shined on my face

But one thing stands alone

Unrivaled and incomparable (Chorus)

And I’m still so amazed

At the beauty that life has shined on my face

But one thing stands alone

Unrivaled and incomparable

Bautista.

As baptized children of God, we are invited to approach him in worship in the name of the triune God.

INVOCATION

Minister: In the name of the Father and of the Son (+) and of the Holy Spirit.

CONGREGATIONAL HYMN How Great Thou Art Christian Worship 612

Please stand

CONFESSION OF SINS

We have come into the presence of God, who created us to love and serve him as his dear children. But we have disobeyed him and deserve only his wrath and punishment. Therefore, let us confess our sins to him and plead for his mercy.

Merciful Father in heaven, I am altogether sinful from birth. In countless ways I have sinned against you and do not deserve to be called your child. But trusting in Jesus, my Savior, I pray: Have mercy on me according to your unfailing love. Cleanse me from my sin, and take away my guilt.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF FORGIVENESS

God, our heavenly Father, has forgiven all your sins. By the perfect life and innocent death of our Lord Jesus Christ, he has removed your guilt forever. You are his own dear child. May God give you strength to live according to his will.

Amen.

“Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” James 5:16

Christ gave the authority to forgive the sins of penitent sinners to his church: “Whenever you forgive people’s sins, they are forgiven.” (John 20:23) This is often referred to as the public use of the keys.

SONG OF PRAISE—At Jesus’ Feet

Sometimes I feel so heavy laden

From a lifetime of sin and regret

And all the guilt that I’ve been dragging Only adds more weight to every step Yearning for a refuge and shelter from the storm

There’s just one place I know that I can go

(Chorus) There is peace beyond my understanding

There is hope that washes over me

And when I turn to the cross and fall on my knees I will find it there at Jesus’ feet

There, I hear my Savior calling Come just as you are with no regrets Take the burdens you have carried Lay them down and I will give you rest I will be your refuge and shelter from the storm And my grace will hold you close for evermore (Chorus)

And I will rest in the refuge of my God and King

And I will sing songs of praises to the one who set me free (Chorus)

Text and music: Stephen Bautista. Used by permission.

For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.

SONG—You Thought of Me

When you made the universe Formed the heavens and the earth When you planned eternity Did you really think of me?

When you breathed that living breath Made us into your likeness When you said that you were pleased Did you really think of me?

And on the day That we rebelled Was I in your thoughts As your tears fell

When you left your mighty throne To fix the damage we had done When you became the least of these Did you really think of me?

When you were betrayed by a kiss And felt the nails go through your wrist When you suffered agony Did you really think of me?

And the moment when You left the grave Was I on your mind As the debt was paid You wrote your word upon my heart To say you knew me from the start And that you planned out everything All because you thought of me

This is how God showed His love among us: He sent His one and only Son into the world that we might live through Him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

SONG You Never Did

I never fully understood Why you agreed to save us When you knew the price you had to pay Was pain beyond endurance

I know if I were in your shoes I wouldn’t hesitate To leave this world of fools

Chorus: But you never did You never budged an inch You never did You never even flinched You could’ve left us all And wrote us off as a lost cause But you never did

You freely took that heavy cross When you could’ve easily left it You let them pierce your mighty hands When you had the power to stop them You could’ve flown at lightning speed When they challenged you To come down off that tree (Chorus)

You stuck through all the pain And endured our guilt and shame When you really could have left us You really could have left us (Chorus)

You really could have left us But you never did

And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit.

SONG—A Sweet, Sweet Sound

There’s a sound rising up through the air

Drowning out the bitter cry of despair

Bellowing over the voice of fear

It’s the sound of hope

Resonating out where the hurting are It echoes through the walls a broken heart Penetrating down through the deepest scar

It’s the sound of hope

Chorus: It’s the sweet sweet sound of a sinner’s praise When their wayward soul is found As they sing a song of amazing grace

All their voices rise In a sweet sweet sound

It wells up to the tops of cathedral halls

Reverberating out through chapel walls Ringing in the streets like a distant call

It’s the sound of hope

It beckons to the hearts of a world in need Telling them the story of the redeemed Proclaiming that Jesus has set them free It’s the sound of hope (Chorus)

A sweet sweet sound

A sweet sweet sound

It’s a sweet sweet sound

When we sing our praises

In the name of Jesus And our hallelujahs ring

In a sweet sweet sound

A sweet sweet sound (Chorus twice)

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

OFFERING

Members of Grace respond to their Savior’s love with offerings that are given joyfully, generously, regularly, and in a way that is proportionate to how the Lord has blessed them. Their cheerful gifts support the mission and ministry of our congregation. If you are a guest today, please know that we do not expect you to contribute to our congregation’s work. However, if you would like to give an offering to the Lord in response to his love to you, we are happy to receive it and put it to work in God’s kingdom. If you prefer, use your smart phone to give online by scanning this QR code:

Please fill out the Friendship Register located in the red folder at the end of the row and pass it along. Thank you!

OFFERTORY SONG—Joy in the Journey

He said lay down your nets and “come follow me”

Without regard for what lies ahead

And we should never look back, just trust and believe

That he’ll lead us to the promise land

And as we take his hand and go

On the path to heaven’s home

We may venture out into the unknown

Chorus: But there is joy in the journey an amazing life to live

When we’re called by the Savior to come and follow him

Though we hope for the future and the glory that awaits

Let us live in this moment and embrace each step we take

When we follow in His footsteps there is joy in the journey

And there’ll be days when we find that we’re too tired and worn

To carry on and take one more step

But our strength is in Christ and we cling to the hope

That soon we will be at heaven’s gate

And what a glorious day when

We’ll be at our journey’s end

And our own eyes will finally see heaven (Chorus)

When we live a life of gratitude for the new life that He gave

When we fill our voice in thankfulness for the price he had to pay

When we join our hearts to worship him and praise the Holy One

When we lift Him up to all the world and tell what he has done (Chorus)

Brief intercessory prayers may be added in a fitting place.

PRAYER OF THE CHURCH

Almighty God and Father, we thank you for all your mercies, especially for the gift of your Son, through whom you have revealed your gracious will. We praise you for the Holy Spirit and his working through the means of grace.

Plant your Word in our hearts, and cause it to produce fruit in our lives.

Strengthen and defend your Church, that by your Word and sacraments faith may grow and love toward all may increase.

Support all who spread the light of your truth throughout the world.

Keep our children in the grace of their baptisms. Enable their parents to train them in lives of faith.

Raise up Christians to serve you in the ministry of the Word and in all godly walks of life.

Preserve our nation in justice and honor. Guide and bless all who make, administer, and judge our laws. Give them wisdom that they may promote justice and hinder evil.

Let your blessing rest on planting and harvest, commerce and industry, medicine and science, the arts and culture. Protect all who travel, and care for those whose work is difficult or dangerous.

Be with all who devote themselves to any useful task.

Comfort all who are in sorrow or need, sickness or adversity. Remember those who suffer persecution for the faith. Have mercy on those for whom death draws near. Grant them your love, and take them into your tender care.

Hear us, Lord, as we pray in silence.

Silent prayer

We remember with thanksgiving those who have loved and served you, who now rest from their labors. Console those who are mourning or living with sadness.

Keep us in the true faith, and bring us at last to the joys of heaven.

Grant us these things, Father, for the sake of Jesus, who died and rose again. Amen.

LORD’S PRAYER

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.

Matthew 6 and Luke 11 record how Jesus taught his disciples to pray. We use his example prayer as part of our public worship, trusting that he will hear and answer our prayers.

CLOSING PRAYER

We pray together:

Almighty God, I am humbled and amazed that you loved me so much that you chose me from eternity, sent your Son to pay the price for my sins, and found me while I was a lost and wayward sinner. Help me now to live a life of gratitude for all you have done for me. Give me a caring heart to love and seek the lost, and share my hope of salvation with those who have no hope. Make me faithful in my daily life so that all I say and do may glorify you. Amen.

BLESSING

Brothers and sisters, go in peace. Live in harmony with one another. Serve the Lord with gladness.

The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you. The Lord look on you with favor and (+) give you peace. Amen. Please be seated

Sunday Morning Bible Study

Join us on Sundays for a look at Prayer and the Lord’s Prayer. We are working through a section of our Grow in Grace Class, which will give us an opportunity to learn and discuss much about what God has to say regarding prayer. If you have not made Sunday morning Bible study a part of your routine, this would be a great time to start! We meet at 9:00 AM in the Grace-Tucson Fellowship Hall.

WELS Tucson Campus Ministry (TCM)

TCM Bible study is tonight! All college students and college-age individuals are welcome at 7:00 PM in the Student Center located in the basement here at Grace-Tucson. They will be covering many topics under the theme “How to Practice My Faith.”

Vicar in Mission Setting

Grace has been approved to participate in the Vicar in Missions program! This means that a vicar (pastor intern) will be assigned to continue his education while helping with the work at Grace, primarily at Sahuarita under Pastor Heiman. The synod subsidizes the total cost of this vicar year, with Grace contributing $20,000 to the effort. You may recall that an early donation covered half of the congregational cost. We have since raised $4,285 toward the goal of covering the rest. Thank you for your generous gifts! A member has offered to match the next $1,000 in donations. Can we meet the challenge of raising the full amount by Sunday, May 5? Envelopes are available for this special offering on the table in the Fellowship Hall.
