Congregational Response Jesus Loves Me Life of the Congregation Pastoral Prayer & The Lord’s Prayer Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Master, Thou callest, I gladly obey; Only direct me, and I’ll find Thy way. Teach me the mission appointed for me, What is my labor, and where it shall be. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.”
Invitation and Benediction† Postlude Be Still, My Soul arr. Andy Bayles
Willing, my Savior, to take up the cross; Willing to suffer reproaches and loss; Willing to follow, if Thou will but lead; Only support me with grace in my need. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.” Living or dying, I still would be Thine, Yet I am mortal while Thou art divine. Pardon, whenever I turn from the right; Pity, and bring me again to the light. Master, Thou callest, and this I reply, “Ready and willing, Lord, here am I.” Doxology† Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow #544

You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven. —Matthew 5:14–16
