Praise God, from whom all blessings flow
Praise Him, all creatures here below
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
Amen
Hosanna to the Lord!
With one breath, “Hosanna” we cry
With the next one we say, “Crucify!”
With one voice we praise your name
With the same voice we condemn you to shame
Hosanna to the Lord
With palm leaves we welcome your reign
With twisted thorns we crown you with pain
You wash our feet to show us your love
We wash our hands of your innocent blood
Hosanna to the Lord
We claim you when you come in power
But we leave you in your terrible hour
We hail you for victory won
But we mock you as you say “It is done”
Hosanna;
Hosanna;
Hosanna to the Lord.

Our Scripture reading today is 2 Corinthians 6:14 – 7:1 (ESV). Hear the Word of God:
14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 15 What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,
“I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
17 Therefore go out from their midst,
and be separate from them, says the Lord,
and touch no unclean thing;
then I will welcome you,
18 and I will be a father to you,
and you shall be sons and daughters to me,
says the Lord Almighty.”
7:1 Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.
This is the Word of the Lord.
A Life Set Apart
– 2 Corinthians 6:14–7:1
Because we belong to Christ, we are called to live with undivided hearts, set apart from the world and set apart for Him.
I. A Different Loyalty vv 14-16a
II. A Deeper Identity vv 16b-18
III. A Holy Response 7:1
Song 5 – When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
