Order of Worship
March 1, 2015
CALL TO WORSHIP
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
born of the virgin Mary.
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
he descended to hell.
The third day he rose again from the dead.
He ascended to heaven
and is seated at the right hand of God the Father
almighty.
From there he will come to judge the living and the
dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic* church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
ALL: Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the
only wise God, be honor and glory forever and
ever. Amen. (I Timothy 1:17)
*that is, the true Christian church of all times and all places

SONGS OF PRAISE
IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE, GOD ONLY WISE,
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
thy justice like mountains high soaring above
thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
To all, life thou givest, to both great and small;
in all life thou livest, the true life of all;
we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
and wither and perish, but naught changeth thee.
SHOUT TO THE NORTH
Men of faith, rise up and sing of the great and glorious King.
You are strong when you feel weak, In your brokenness
complete.
Shout to the north and the south,
Sing to the east and the west:
Jesus is Savior to all,
Lord of heaven and earth.
Rise up women of the truth, Stand and sing to broken hearts,
Who can know the healing pow’r of our glorious King of
love? (chorus)
Rise up church with broken wings; Fill this place with songs
again, Of our God who reigns on high: By His grace again
we’ll fly. (chorus)

HIGHLY EXALTED
You were despised, you were rejected, Lord,
those who passed by
even averted their gaze from the sight,
such was the suffering you bore for us
Led like a lamb, a lamb to the slaughter
you spoke not a word
but chose to be silent, Lord, you did no wrong
nor was deceitfulness found in you
Yet by your wounds our salvation has come,
Yet by your suffering our freedom is won
For God has highly exalted your name,
He has enthroned you on high,
Jesus, the name above all names
PRAYER OF CONFESSION
WORDS OF ASSURANCE
from Psalm 36:5-10
Your lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens,
Your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Your righteousness is like the mountains of God;
Your judgments are like a great deep.
O LORD, You preserve man and beast.
How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God!
And the children of men take refuge
in the shadow of Your wings.
They drink their fill of the abundance of Your house;
And You give them to drink
of the river of Your delights.
For with You is the fountain of life;
In Your light we see light.
O continue Your lovingkindness to those who know You,
And Your righteousness to the upright in heart.

THERE IS A FOUNTAIN FILLED WITH BLOOD
There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from
Immanuel’s veins, And sinners plunged beneath that flood
Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains
Lose all their guilty stains, And sinners plunged beneath that
flood, Lose all their guilty stains
The dying thief rejoiced to see, That fountain in his day
And there may I though vile as he
Wash all my sins away, Wash all my sins away
Wash all my sins away, And there may I though vile as he
Wash all my sins away
Dear dying Lamb Thy precious blood, Shall never lose its
pow’r, Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more, Be saved to sin no more
Be saved to sin no more, Till all the ransomed Church of
God, Be saved to sin no more
E’er since by faith I saw the stream, Thy flowing wounds
supply, Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die, And shall be till I die
And shall be till I die, Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be till I die
OFFERTORY
Parents, if you’d like for your children (3K-Kindergarten) to participate
in Children’s Church, please dismiss them after the offering is collected.

Where in the World
Our missionary Sherry
Bohn works with Entrust,
an organization that assists
churches in responding to
the global cry for servantleaders through accessible,
transformational, Biblical
training. We at Redeemer
use the Entrust method to
train our teachers.
Sherry has helped write
and revise curriculum for
women that includes
facilitator training, child
rearing, and methods for
Bible study and women’s
ministering to women. She
teaches these and other
courses to women
throughout the world.
She’s working on teaching
curriculum tailored for
training children, also.
Praise that women
across Eastern Europe
have gained a deeper
knowledge of the Word
and can confidently speak
from it and teach its truths;
they attribute this ability to
Entrust training.
Pray that God grants
them wisdom and Biblical
discernment as they seek to
make this training available
in many cultural contexts,
as Entrust will be revising
its facilitator training soon.
Send Sherry an email to
encourage her at
sbohn@entrust4.org.
