1 1 WELCOME TO PIONEER EVANGELICAL CHURCH Sunday, October 9, 2016 Smile, you're on church video! Services are broadcast live and recorded Hymn # 25 JOYFUL, JOYFUL, WE ADORE THEE Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee, God of Glory, Lord of love; Hearts unfold like flow rs before Thee, Opening to the sun above. Melt the clouds of sin and sadness, Drive the dark of doubt away; Giver of immortal gladness, fill us with the light of day! All Thy works with joy surround Thee, Earth and heav n reflect Thy rays, Stars and angels sing around Thee, Center of unbroken praise, Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Call us to rejoice in Thee. Thou art giving and forgiving, ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, 1

2 Well-spring of the joy of living, ocean-depth of happy rest! Thou our Father, Christ our Brother, all who live in love are Thine; teach us how to love each other, lift us to the joy divine. Verse 4 Mortals join the mighty chorus, which the morning stars began; Father love is reigning o er us, Brother love binds man to man. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music leads us sunward, In the triumph song of life.

4 One thing Remains Your love never fails, It never gives up It never runs out on me [3x] And on and on and on and on it goes For it overwhelms and satisfies my soul And I never, ever, have to be afraid One thing remains, one thing remains Your love never fails, It never gives up It never runs out on me [3x] Your Love Bridge In death, In life, I m confident and covered by the power Of Your great love, My debt is paid, There s nothing that can separate my heart From Your great love...

Happiness is to be forgiven Living the life that worth the living Taking a trip that leads to heaven Happiness is the Lord, Happiness is the Lord Happiness is the Lord! Hymn # 295 I KNOW NOT WHY GOD'S WONDROUS GRACE I know not why God s wondrous grace To me He hath made known, Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love, Redeemed me for His own. 5

6 To keep that which I ve committed, Unto Him against that day I know not how this saving faith To me He did impart, Nor how believing in His Word, Wrought peace within my heart. To keep that which I ve committed, Unto Him against that day I know not how the Spirit moves, Convincing men of sin, Revealing Jesus through the Word, Creating faith in Him. To keep that which I ve committed, Unto Him against that day Verse 4 I know not when my Lord may come, At night or noonday fair, Nor if I ll walk the vale with Him, Or meet Him in the air. 6

7 To keep that which I ve committed, Unto Him against that day ,000 REASONS Oh my soul, worship His holy name, Sing like never before, oh my soul, I worship Your holy name. Verse 1 The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning, It time to sing Your song again. Whatever may pass and Whatever lies before me, Let me be singing when the ev'ning comes Oh my soul, worship His holy name, Sing like never before, oh my soul, I worship Your holy name. You're rich in love and You're slow to anger, Your name is great and Your heart is kind. For all Your goodness I will keep on singing, Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find. 7

8 Oh my soul, worship His holy name, Sing like never before, oh my soul, I worship Your holy name And on that day when my strength is failing, The end draws near and my time has come. Still my soul will sing Your praise unending, Ten thousand years and then for-ev-er more. Oh my soul, worship His holy name, Sing like never before, oh my soul, I worship Your holy name. OFFERING SHINE ON US Lord, let your light, light of your face, shine on us (X2) That we, may be saved, that we, may have life To find our way in the darkest night Let your light, Shine on us Lord, let your grace, grace from your hand, fall on us (X2) That we, may be saved, that we, may have life To find our way in the darkest night 8
