2 Order of Worship God's Light All Glory, Laud, and Honor God s Light Prelude Welcome and Announcements Call to Worship Psalm 119: Your testimonies are wonderful; therefore my soul keeps them. 130 The unfolding of your words gives light; it imparts understanding to the simple. 131 I open my mouth and pant, because I long for your commandments. 132 Turn to me and be gracious to me, as is your way with those who love your name. 133 Keep steady my steps according to your promise, and let no iniquity get dominion over me. 134 Redeem me from man s oppression, that I may keep your precepts. 135 Make your face shine upon your servant, and teach me your statutes. 136 My eyes shed streams of tears, because people do not keep your law. 2 3

3 All Hail the Power of Jesus Name Scripture Reading Exodus 20:1-17 God's Light 1 And God spoke all these words, saying, 2 I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 You shall have no other gods before me. 4 You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. 5 You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing steadfast love to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments. 7 You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain, for the Lord will not hold him guiltless who takes his name in vain. 8 Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. 9 Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, 10 but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the Lord your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. 11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the Lord blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy. 12 Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you. 13 You shall not murder. 14 You shall not commit adultery. 15 You shall not steal. 16 You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor. 17 You shall not covet your neighbor s house; you shall not covet your neighbor s wife, or his male servant, or his female servant, or his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor s.

4 God's Light Matthew 22: But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. 35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him. 36 Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law? 37 And he said to him, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. 40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets. Prayer of Confession Here I Am to Worship Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness, Opened my eyes, let me see Beauty that made This heart adore You, Hope of a life spent with You. Chorus Here I am to worship, Here I am to bow down, Here I am to say that You re my God. You re altogether lovely, Altogether worthy, Altogether wonderful to me. King of all days, Oh so highly exalted, Glorious in heaven above. Humbly You came To the earth You created, All for love s sake became poor. (Chorus) Bridge I ll never know how much it cost To see my sin upon that cross. I ll never know how much it cost To see my sin upon that cross.

5 Victory in the Lamb He will clothe the poor with crowns In the kingdom He calls theirs He will raise them to the halls of heaven And release their earthly cares And the hard times they will come The black clouds they will break But His riches come with the morning sun And they grow green fields of grace Chorus So let all condemnation cease Let guilt have no more claim Let the devil lose all dominion The Lamb of God He came! The Lamb of God was slain! The Lamb of God was raised! Sermon God's Light Offering John 1:1-5 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Pastoral Prayer Romans 13:8-14 (p. 948) We will fix our wandering eyes On the wonders of our Lord By His sacred stripes we have been healed Through His wounds our joys supplied (Chorus) The strong ones and the weak Are the same under His blood For empty handed all must come To receive His endless love (Chorus twice) Words and music by Wesley Randolph Eader,

6 God's Light All I Have Is Christ I once was lost in darkest night, Yet thought I knew the way; The sin that promised joy and life Had led me to the grave. I had no hope that You would own A rebel to Your will, And if You had not loved me first I would refuse You still. But as I ran my hell-bound race, Indifferent to the cost, You looked upon my helpless state And led me to the cross. And I beheld God s love displayed: You suffered in my place; You bore the wrath reserved for me, Now all I know is grace. Chorus Hallelujah! All I have is Christ! Hallelujah! Jesus is my life! Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone, And live so all might see The strength to follow Your commands Could never come from me. O, Father, use my ransomed life In any way You choose, And let my song forever be, My only boast is You.
