Leaning on the Everlasting Arms Red Hymnal #560
What a fellowship, what a joy divine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
What a blessedness, what a peace is mine,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
(chorus)
Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms,
Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms
O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,
Leaning on the everlasting arms;
O how bright the path grows from day to day,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
(chorus)
What have I to dread, what I have to fear,
Leaning on the everlasting arms?
I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,
Leaning on the everlasting arms.
(chorus twice)

How Great Is Our God
The splendor of a King
Clothed in majesty
Let all the Earth rejoice
All the Earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
Trembles at His voice
(chorus)
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see how great,
How great is our God
Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end,
Beginning and the end
The Godhead Three in One
Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb,
The Lion and the Lamb
(chorus)
(Bridge twice)
Name above all names
Worthy of our praise
My heart will sing
How great is our God
(chorus twice)

The Lord's Prayer
(we invite you to recite whatever version you have learned)
Our God in heaven,
Holy be your name,
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins,
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Save us in the time of trial,
And deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever.
Amen.

Scripture Reading
Scripture Reading: Romans 12:9-19 (New Revised Standard Version)
(You may read whatever version you wish)
Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.
Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.
Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly; do not claim to be wiser than you are. Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.
If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all. Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave room for the wrath of God; for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

Closing Hymn
Marching to Zion Red Hymnal #707
Come, we that love the Lord,
And let our joys be known;
Join in a song with sweet accord,
Join in a song with sweet accord,
And thus surround the throne,
And thus surround the throne.
(Chorus)
We're marching to Zion
Beautiful, beautiful Zion;
We're marching upward to Zion,
The beautiful city of God.
Let those refuse to sing
Who never knew our God;
But children of the heavenly King,
But children of the heavenly King,
May speak their joys abroad,
May speak their joys abroad.
(Chorus)
The hill of Zion yields
A thousand sacred sweets
Before we reach the heavenly fields,
Before we reach the heavenly fields,
Or walk the golden streets,
Or walk the golden streets.
(Chorus)
Then let our songs abound,
And every tear be dry;
We're marching through Emmanuel's ground,
We're marching through Emmanuel's ground
To fairer worlds on high,
To fairer worlds on high.
(Chorus)
