Repent, the Kingdom Draweth Nigh Ambassador Hymnal #6

‘Repent, the kingdom draweth nigh,’ The herald of the Lord doth cry. Ye sinners, lost through Adam’s fall, Will ye not harken to the call?

Repent, the gracious call believe; Haste, His forgiveness to receive. The Prince of Life, incarnate Word, Life and salvation can afford.

Divine Redeemer, glorious King, Repentant heart to Thee we bring. Thy holy blood for us was spilt, Cleanse us from all the stains of guilt.

Drawn by Thy Spirit, through Thy word, Thy invitation we have heard. In answer to Thy sweet request We come to Thee, O Christ, for rest.

Confession of Sin Ambassador Hymnal Pg. 48 #3 Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You to confess to You that we have grievously sinned and fallen short of Your glory. We have not loved You above all things or our neighbor as ourselves.

Confession of Sin Ambassador Hymnal Pg. 48 #3 We confess these and other sins to You in order to receive Your forgiveness and cleansing. Grant to us Your mercy and grace, and help us to live our lives in the way that honors You the most. We pray this in the Name of Jesus, Amen.

Zechariah 13:1-9

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth; And 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, dead and buried; He descended into hell; the third day He rose again from the dead;…

Apostles’ Creed p. 4 in Ambassador Hymnal …He ascended into heaven; And is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; From where He shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit; The holy Christian Church, the Communion of Saints; the Forgiveness of sins; The Resurrection of the body, and the Life everlasting, Amen.

Were You There? Ambassador Hymnal #83

Were you there when they crucified my Lord? Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they crucified my Lord?

Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree? Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they nailed Him to the tree?

Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb? Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when they laid Him in the tomb?

Were you there when God rose up from the grave? Oh, sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble. Were you there when God rose up from the grave?

The LORD’s Prayer Our Father, Who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth, as it is in heaven; Give us this day our daily bread: And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us,

The LORD’s Prayer And lead us not into temptation; But deliver us from evil; For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, And the glory, forever and ever. AMEN.

Doxology Your perfect Law exposes me I feel my sin and desperate need My best good works are powerless To satisfy my righteousness

Doxology But there is One who lived for me His life, my only victory His death forever sealed in time That I am His and He is mine

Doxology Praise God from Whom all blessings flow! Praise Him all creatures Here below! Praise Him above, ye heavenly hosts! Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! AMEN.

Have a wonderful day!
