Invocation / Call to Worship

Daniel 7:9-10 ESV

9 “As I looked, thrones were placed, and the Ancient of Days took his seat; his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames; its wheels were burning fire.
--
10 A stream of fire issued and came out from before him; a thousand thousands served him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him; the court sat in judgment, and the books were opened.

"Higher Ground" #532

Verse 1
I'm pressing on
the upward way
New heights I'm
gaining ev'ry day

Still praying as
I'm onward bound
Lord plant my feet
on higher ground

Chorus 1
Lord lift me up
and let me stand
By faith on
heaven's tableland

A higher plane
than I have found
Lord plant my feet
on higher ground

Verse 2
My heart has no
desire to stay
Where doubts arise
and fears dismay

Tho' some may dwell
where these abound
My pray'r my aim
is higher ground

Verse 3
I want to live
above the world
Tho' Satan's darts
at me are hurled

For faith has caught
the joyful sound
The song of saints
on higher ground

Verse 4
I want to scale
the utmost height
And catch a gleam
of glory bright

But still I'll pray
till heav'n I've found
Lord lead me on
to higher ground

Scripture Reading

Hebrews 8:6-13

6 But as it is, Christ has obtained a ministry that is as much more excellent than the old as the covenant he mediates is better, since it is enacted on better promises.
--
7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no occasion to look for a second.
--
8 For he finds fault with them when he says: “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah,
--
9 not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt. For they did not continue in my covenant, and so I showed no concern for them, declares the Lord.
--
10 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
--
11 And they shall not teach, each one his neighbor and each one his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest.
--
12 For I will be merciful toward their iniquities, and I will remember their sins no more.”
--
13 In speaking of a new covenant, he makes the first one obsolete. And what is becoming obsolete and growing old is ready to vanish away.

"The Old Rugged Cross" #230

VERSE 1
On a hill far away
stood an old
rugged cross

The emblem of
suff’ring and shame

And I love
that old cross
where the dearest
and best

For a world
of lost sinners
was slain


CHORUS
So I’ll cherish
the old rugged cross
Till my trophies
at last I lay down

I will cling to
the old rugged cross
And exchange it
some day for a crown


VERSE 2
Oh that old
rugged cross
so despised
by the world

Has a wondrous
attraction for me

For the dear
Lamb of God
left His glory above

To bear it to
dark Calvary

CHORUS
So I’ll cherish
the old rugged cross
Till my trophies
at last I lay down

I will cling to
the old rugged cross
And exchange it
some day for a crown

VERSE 3
In the old
rugged cross
stained with blood
so divine

A wondrous
beauty I see

For ’twas on
that old cross
Jesus suffered
and died

To pardon
and sanctify me

CHORUS
So I’ll cherish
the old rugged cross
Till my trophies
at last I lay down

I will cling to
the old rugged cross
And exchange it
some day for a crown

VERSE 4
To the old
rugged cross
I will ever
be true

Its shame
and reproach
gladly bear

Then He’ll call
me some day
to my home
far away

Where His glory
forever I’ll share

CHORUS
So I’ll cherish
the old rugged cross
Till my trophies
at last I lay down

I will cling to
the old rugged cross
And exchange it
some day for a crown
