Genesis 17:1-7, 15-16
1 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, “I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless. 2 And I will make my covenant between me and you, and will make you exceedingly numerous.” 3 Then Abram fell on his face; and God said to him, 4 “As for me, this is my covenant with you: You shall be the ancestor of a multitude of nations. 5 No longer shall your name be Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you the ancestor of a multitude of nations. 6 I will make you exceedingly fruitful; and I will make nations of you, and kings shall come from you. 7 I will establish my covenant between me and you, and your offspring after you throughout their generations, for an everlasting covenant, to be God to you and to your offspring after you.
15 God said to Abraham, “As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her Sarai, but Sarah shall be her name. 16 I will bless her, and moreover I will give you a son by her. I will bless her, and she shall give rise to nations; kings of peoples shall come from her.”
Apostles’ Creed
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 Ghost, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into the dead. The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God the Father almighty; From thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
We believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy Church universal, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
Find Us Faithful
O may all who come behind us
find us faithful;
May the fire of our devotion
light their way.
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe,
And the lives we live
inspire them to obey.
O may all who come behind us
find us faithful.
Holy, Holy, Holy
Holy, holy, holy!
Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning
our song shall rise to Thee.
Holy, holy, holy!
merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons,
blessed Trinity!
Holy, holy, holy!
all the saints adore Thee,
Casting down their golden crowns
around the glassy sea;
Cherubim and seraphim
falling down before Thee,
Which wert, and art, and
evermore shalt be.
Holy, holy, holy!
tho’ the darkness hide Thee,
Tho’ the eye of sinful man
Thy glory may not see;
Only Thou art holy-
There is none beside Thee
Perfect in pow’r,
in love, in purity.
Holy, holy, holy!
Lord God Almighty!
All Thy works shall praise Thy name
in earth, and sky, and sea.
Holy, holy, holy!
merciful and mighty!
God in three Persons,
blessed Trinity!
Romans 4:13-25
13 For the promise that he would inherit the world did not come to Abraham or to his descendants through the law but through the righteousness of faith. 14 If it is the adherents of the law who are to be the heirs, faith is null and the promise is void. 15 For the law brings wrath; but where there is no law, neither is there violation.
16 For this reason it depends on faith, in order that the promise may rest on grace and be guaranteed to all his descendants, not only to the adherents of the law but also to those who share the faith of Abraham (for he is the father of all of us, 17 as it is written, “I have made you the father of many nations”)—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist. 18 Hoping against hope, he believed that he would become “the father of many nations,” according to what was said, “So numerous shall your descendants be.” 19 He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was already as good as dead (for he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness of Sarah's womb. 20 No distrust made him waver concerning the promise of God, but he grew strong in his faith as he gave glory to God, 21 being fully convinced that God was able to do what he had promised.
22 Therefore his faith “was reckoned to him as righteousness.” 23 Now the words, “it was reckoned to him,” were written not for his sake alone, 24 but for ours also. It will be reckoned to us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead, 25 who was handed over to death for our trespasses and was raised for our justification.
Prayer Mark 8:31-38
31 Then he began to teach them that the Son of Man must undergo great suffering, and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. 32 He said all this quite openly. And Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 33 But turning and looking at his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.” 34 He called the crowd with his disciples, and said to them, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 35 For those who want to save their life will lose it, and those who lose their life for my sake, and for the sake of the gospel, will save it. 36 For what will it profit them to gain the whole world and forfeit their life? 37 Indeed, what can they give in return for their life? 38 Those who are ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of them the Son of Man will also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”
How Firm a Foundation
How firm a foundation,
ye saints of the Lord
Is laid for your faith
in His excellent Word!
What more can He say
than to you He hath said,
To you who for refuge
to Jesus have fled?
“Fear not; I am with thee.
O be not dismayed,
For I am thy God,
I will still give thee aid.
I’ll strengthen thee, help thee,
and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My gracious,
omnipotent hand.”
“When thro’ the deep waters
I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow
shall not overflow;
For I will be with thee
thy trials to bless,
And sanctify to thee
Thy deepest distress.”
“When thro’ fi’ry trials
thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all sufficient,
shall be thy supply.
The flames shall not hurt thee;
I only design
Thy dross to consume
and thy gold to refine.”
“E’en down to old age
all My people shall prove
My sov’reign, eternal,
unchangeable love;
And when silver hair
shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still
in My bosom be borne.”
“The soul that on Jesus
hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not
desert to his foes;
That soul, tho’ all hell
should endeavor to shake,
I’ll never, no never,
no never forsake.”
Great is Thy Faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness,
O God, my Father;
There is no shadow of turning with Thee.
Thou changest not;
Thy compassions, they fail not.
As Thou has been
Thou forever wilt be.
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
New mercies I see.
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided.
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me!
Summer and winter,
and spring-time and harvest,
Sun, moon, and stars
in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness,
mercy, and love.
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
New mercies I see.
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided.
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me!
Pardon for sin
And a peace that endureth,
Thy own dear presence
To cheer and to guide,
Strength for today
And bright hope for tomorrow-
Blessings all mine,
With ten thousand beside!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning
New mercies I see.
All I have needed
Thy hand hath provided.
Great is Thy faithfulness,
Lord unto me!
Psalm 22:23-31
23 You who fear the Lord, praise him!
All you offspring of Jacob, glorify him;
stand in awe of him, all you offspring of Israel!
24 For he did not despise or abhor
the affliction of the afflicted;
he did not hide his face from me,
but heard when I cried to him.
25 From you comes my praise in the great congregation;
my vows I will pay before those who fear him.
26 The poor shall eat and be satisfied;
those who seek him shall praise the Lord.
May your hearts live forever!
27 All the ends of the earth shall remember
and turn to the Lord;
and all the families of the nations
shall worship before him.
28 For dominion belongs to the Lord,
and he rules over the nations.
29 To him, indeed, shall all who sleep in the earth bow down;
before him shall bow all who go down to the dust,
and I shall live for him.
30 Posterity will serve him;
future generations will be told about the Lord,
31 and proclaim his deliverance to a people yet unborn,
saying that he has done it.
