Call to Worship            

Psalm 95:1-6               

Oh come, let us sing to the LORD; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!

Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!

For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also.

The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the LORD, our Maker!

Corporate Confession of Sin

The Valley of Vision            

Thou righteous and holy Sovereign, in whose hand is our life and whose are all our ways; Keep us from fluttering about religion; fix us firm in it, for we are irresolute; our decisions are smoke and vapor, and we do not glorify Thee, or behave according to Thy will; O Thou Father of our spirits, Thou King of life, drive us not from Thy presence, but wound our hearts that they may be healed; break our hearts that Thine own hand may make them whole. In the name of Jesus Christ our Savior we pray. Amen.

selected verses  Psalm 119

Blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the LORD!

Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with their whole heart, who do no wrong but walk in his ways!

You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently.

I will praise you with an upright heart, when I learn your righteous rules. I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.

I will mediate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways.

I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.
