seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living

in an age of change and doubt
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.

we adore you! We believe!

Guide me, O thou great Jehovah,
Pilgrim through this barren land,
I am weak, but thou art mighty;
Hold me with thy powerful hand.
Open now the crystal fountains
Whence the living waters flow;
Let the fiery, cloudy pillar
Lead me all my journey through.
Feed me with the heavenly manna
In this barren wilderness;
Be my sword, and shield, and banner,
Be the Lord my Righteousness.
When I tread the verge of Jordan,
Bid my anxious fears subside;
Death of death, and hell's destruction,
Land me safe on Canaan's side.
Amen.

Glorious Things Are Sung of Zion
Author: William W. Phelps, 1792–1872 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Glorious things are sung of Zion,
Enoch’s city seen of old,
Where the righteous, being perfect,
Walked with God in streets of gold.
Love and virtue, faith and wisdom,
Grace and gifts were all combined.
As himself each loved his neighbor;
All were one in heart and mind.
2. There they shunn’d the pow’r of Satan
And observed celestial laws;
For in Adam-ondi-Ahman
Zion rose where Eden was.
When beyond the pow’r of evil,
So that none could covet wealth,
One continual feast of blessings
Crown’d their days with peace and health.
3. Then the tow’rs of Zion glittered
Like the sun in yonder skies,
And the wicked stood and trembled,
Filled with wonder and surprise.
Then their faith and works were perfect;
Lo, they followed their great Head!
So the city went to heaven,
And the world said, “Zion’s fled!”
4. When the Lord returns with Zion,
And we hear the watchman cry,
Then we’ll surely be united,
And we’ll all see eye to eye.
Then we’ll mingle with the angels,
And the Lord will bless his own.
Then the earth will be as Eden,
And we’ll know as we are known. Topics: Jesus Christ Second Coming; Millennium; Restoration; Unity; Zion Scripture: Isaiah 52:8 Used With Tune: IN BABILONE

oversee her life steadfastly
yet not overlook her faults.

greater than our creeds rehearse:

that our ministries uniting
may give glory to your name.

sin afflicts the souls of men,

God Has Chosen What Is Foolish
Author: Richard Leach Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 God has chosen what is foolish,
what is easy to despise,
to save us from our own wisdom
and to shame what we call wise.
God has chosen what is weakest,
what cannot be counted on,
to save us from our own power
and to shame what we call strong.
2 What is strong by human measure?
War and wealth seem strong and real.
What is weak? A human body,
met by fists and wood and steel.
Yet the body of our Jesus
has defied the cross and grave.
God has cherished what is fragile,
come in Christ to mend and save.
3 God has chosen what is nothing
to be something in his sight,
and to send into the shadows
those who seem to own the light.
Some things seeming now the greatest
will be dream-like, fading fast.
God has chosen what is empty
to be filled with joy at last. Topics: Ash Wednesday; God Nature of Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:27-28 Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA

We awake among the blest.
