Praise Service
Psalm 34:1-3
L: I will bless my God at all times;
R: Praise will be continually in my mouth.
L: My soul makes its boast in my God;
R: Let the afflicted hear and be glad.
L: O magnify our God with me,
R: Let us exalt that name together.
suggested hymn:
"This is My Father's World"
suggested Bible verses:
Romans 8:35-39
John 1:1-5
Possibly a praise poem or song here.
Hymn:
"O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing"
Comment:
A thousand tongues are not enough to tell of the glory and
majesty of God. And with love and mercy so great that God
came down to be as one of us, die, then live again to bring
us wholly to God. We have but to accept this freely given
gift of love to find true life that never dies.
Hymn:
"Because He Lives"
Comment:
Because Jesus died, but rose again and lives now, we can face
all our tomorrows. We have but to reach out and take hold of
the hand that He holds out to us. Jesus is always there for
us if we will let Him into our lives.
Special Music:
"Child of God" by Jerry Browning
Comment:
We are all of us children of God. No one is ever turned way
from that love. Jesus did not just die for some people, He
died for all people, then rose again, making ALL of us
children of God.
Offering:
We are given so much love and mercy by God. Do we dare not
give back a return on that love? For it is in the giving
that we show God's love for all. And not just in the giving
of money, but in time and energy. We need to learn to be
active in our showing people about God's love. How else will
they believe us?
confession:
Lord, we say we love you, and worship you, but so many times
we try to break free and follow our own paths instead of
traveling the way you try to lead us. We turn our backs on
the love and mercy you would give us and so many times refuse
others access.
communion Hymn:
"Here, O My Lord"
(if only 1 verse, use verse 4)
invitation:
All are free to come and partake. For God turns no one away
from the love and mercy that is evident in Jesus Christ. Just
accept that love and mercy and come here to the table to
partake with us all. ALL are welcome here.
end with a song of praise, leave the service singing.
