An Invitation to Worship
Hymnal: The Psalter #254 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Backsliding First Line: O come before the Lord, our King Lyrics: 1 O come before the Lord, our King,
And in His presence let us sing;
Let us in glad and joyful lays
The Rock of our salvation praise;
Before Him come with thankful song
In joyful psalms His praise prolong.
2 Almighty pow'r the Lord maintains,
Exalted over all He reigns;
He holds the valleys in His hand,
He makes the mighty mountains stand;
To Him belong both land and sea,
Creator of the world is He.
3 O come and let us worship now,
Before our maker let us bow;
We are His sheep and He our God,
He feeds our souls in pastures broad;
He safely leads us in the way;
O come and heed His voice today.
4 Take heed and harden not your heart
As did our fathers, nor depart
From God to follow in their ways;
For with complaints instead of praise,
With doubt instead of faith confessed,
They put His mercy to the test.
5 Take heed that ye provoke Him not
As did your fathers, who forgot,
With erring heart, God's holy ways
And grieved Him all their sinful days;
To whom in wrath Jehovah sware,
My promised rest they shall not share. Scripture: Psalm 95 Languages: English Tune Title: SALOME
An Invitation to Worship
Adoration and Submission
Hymnal: The Psalter #255 (1912) Topics: Backsliding First Line: Now with joyful exultation Lyrics: 1 Now with joyful exultation
Let us sing Jehovah's praise;
To the Rock of our salvation
Loud hosannas let us raise;
Thankful tribute gladly bringing,
Let us come before Him now,
And, with psalms His praises singing,
Joyful in His presence bow.
2 For, how great a God, and glorious,
Is Jehovah Whom we sing;
Over idol-gods victorious,
Great is He, our God and King.
In His hand are earth's deep places,
His the strength of all the hills;
His the sea whose bounds He traces,
His the land His bounty fills.
3 To the Lord, such might revealing,
Let us come with rev'rence meet,
And, before our Maker kneeling,
Let us worship at His feet.
He is our own God who leads us,
We the people of His care;
With a shepherd's hand He feeds us
As His flock in pastures fair.
4 While He proffers peace and pardon
Let us hear His voice today,
Lest, if we our hearts should harden,
We should perish in the way;
Lest to us, so unbelieving,
He in judgment should declare:
Ye, so long my Spirit grieving,
Never in My rest can share. Scripture: Psalm 95 Languages: English Tune Title: LOVE DIVINE

Faith is the brightest evidence
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #286 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Backsliding soul restored Lyrics:
Faith is the brightest evidence
Of things beyond our sight,
Breaks through the clouds of flesh and sense,
And dwells in heav'nly light.
It sets times past in present view,
Brings distant prospects home,
Of things a thousand years ago,
Or thousand years to come.
By faith we know the worlds were made
By God's almighty word;
Abram, to unknown countries led,
By faith obeyed the Lord.
He sought a city fair and high,
Built by th' eternal hands,
And faith assures us, though we die,
That heav'nly building stands.
Scripture: Hebrews 11 Languages: English
Faith is the brightest evidence
Praise and Confession
Hymnal: The Psalter #290 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Backsliding First Line: Praise ye the Lord, for He is good Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord, for He is good;
Give thanks and bless His Name;
His loving-kindness changes not,
From age to age the same.
2 What tongue can tell His mighty deeds,
His wondrous works and ways?
O who can show His glory forth,
Or utter all His praise?
3 The Lord will bless and prosper those,
Yea, blest indeed are they,
Whose ways are just, who constantly
His righteous law obey.
4 O Lord, remember me in grace,
Let me salvation see;
The grace Thou showest to Thy saints,
That grace reveal to me.
5 Let me behold Thy people's good
And in their joy rejoice;
With Thy triumphant heritage
Let me lift up my voice.
6 In evil we have gone astray,
And sinful is our race;
Rebelliously our fathers walked,
Forgetful of Thy grace.
7 Though they rebelled, yet for their help
In saving strength he came
To make His power almighty known
And glorify His Name.
8 He brought them safely through the sea
And overwhelmed their foes;
Their faith was stirred, and for the time
Their songs of praise arose.
9 Forgetful soon, they tempted God,
Nor for His counsel cared;
He sent them leanness in their souls,
Whilst they earth's bounties shared.
10 With envy they regarded those
Whom God to them had sent;
The opening earth, the kindling flame,
Brought awful punishment.
11 A golden image they adored,
And worshiped at its shrine;
Thus they despised the living God
And scorned His love divine.
Scripture: Psalm 106 Languages: English Tune Title: BARKE
Praise and Confession
Sin and Divine Patience
Hymnal: The Psalter #291 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Backsliding First Line: Their God and Saviour they forgot Lyrics: 1 Their God and Saviour they forgot,
Their helper and their stay,
But Moses plead the promised grace
And turned God's wrath away.
2 Yea, they despised the pleasant land,
The promised land of God,
And tempted Him to make them fall
And scatter them abroad.
3 They sacrificed to heathen gods,
And God their sin repaid;
Then holy wrath avenged the wrong,
And so the plague was stayed.
4 The Lord approved the righteous act
Of him who sin abhorred,
And honored him for evermore
With just and great reward.
5 By wicked strife they angered God,
His wrath they did provoke;
And, stirred by their rebellious cries,
Their leader rashly spoke.
6 Ensnared, they served the heathen gods,
And by them were beguiled;
The blood of children sacrificed
The very land defiled.
7 Against His own inheritance
Jehovah's wrath arose,
His chosen people He condemned
To serve their heathen foes.
8 Though from their harsh oppressors' hand
Ofttimes He set them free,
Rebellious still, they were brought low
In their iniquity.
9 When unto God they cried, he heard
And turned again His face,
In boundless love remembering
The covenant of His grace.
10 He even touched their captors' hearts,
And made their very foes
Compassionate and pitiful
To feel his people's woes.
11 Save us, O Lord, our gracious God,
From alien lands reclaim
That we may triumph in Thy praise
And bless Thy holy Name.
12 Blessed be the Lord our covenant God,
All praise to Him accord;
Let all the people say, Amen.
Praise ye, praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 106 Languages: English Tune Title: NOTTINGHAM

Emancipation from Spiritual Slavery
Hymnal: The Psalter #293 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Backsliding First Line: Rebels, who had dared to show Lyrics: 1 Rebels, who had dared to show
Proud contempt of God Most High,
Bound in iron and in woe,
Shades of death and darkness night,
Humbled low with toil and pain,
Fell, and looked for help in vain.
2 To Jehovah then they cried
In their trouble, and He saved,
Threw the prison open wide
Where they lay to death enslaved,
Bade the gloomy shadows flee,
Broke their bonds and set them free.
3 Sons of men, awake to praise
God the Lord Who reigns above,
Gracious in His works and ways,
Wondrous in redeeming love;
Iron bars He breaks like clay,
And the brazen gates give way.
Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English Tune Title: DIX
