Song 1 – Come Behold the Wondrous Mystery

Hear God call you to worship, as we call each other to worship:

The earth is the Lord’s, for he made it: 
Come, let us adore him.
Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness: 
Come, let us adore him.
The mercy of the Lord is everlasting:
Come, let us adore him.
Lord, open our lips.
And our mouths shall proclaim your praise.*

Let us worship the Lord!

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.

Praise God for all that he has done
Praise him for he has overcome
The grave is beaten, love has won
Praise God our Saviour, Christ the Son

Amen

With one voice, as one people, one body, one church, we profess our faith with words from the Heidelberg Catechism (1563). The first question of the Heidelberg Catechism is: “What is your only comfort in life and in death?” We answer with the following statement of faith:

Heidelberg Catechism, Q&A 1

My only comfort in life and in death 
Is that I am not my own,
but belong—
body and soul,
in life and in death—
to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood,
and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil.
He also watches over me in such a way
that not a hair can fall from my head
without the will of my Father in heaven:
in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.
Because I belong to him,
Christ, by his Holy Spirit,
assures me of eternal life
and makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready
from now on to live for him.

Let’s pray.

Our Father in heaven, 
hallowed be your name;

on earth as it is in heaven. 
Give us this day our daily bread. 
And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who have sinned against us.
And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. 
For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever.
Amen.
