Call to Worship

L: O give thanks to the Lord, call on God's name, Make known God's deeds among the peoples!

ALL: Sing to the Lord, sing praises! Tell of all God's wonderful works!

L: Glory in God's holy name; Let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!

ALL: Seek the Lord and his strength; Seek the Lord's presence continually!

L: Remember the wonderful works of God has done, The miracles and judgments God has uttered,

ALL:O offspring of Abraham, God's servant, Children of Jacob, God's chosen ones.

2nd Chorus                                           Lift Up Every Voice and Sing

1. Lift every voice and sing, till earth and heaven ring, ring with the harmonies of liberty; let our rejoicing rise high as the listening skies, let it resound loud as the rolling sea. Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us; sing a song full of hope that the present has brought us; facing the rising sun of our new day begun, let us march on till victory is won.

2. Stony the road we trod, bitter the chastening rod, felt in the days when hope unborn had died; yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet come to the place for which our fathers sighed? We have come over a way that with tears has been watered; we have come, treading our path thru the blood of the slaughtered, out from the gloomy past, till now we stand at last where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.

3. God of our weary years, God of our silent tears, thou who hast brought us thus far on the way; thou who hast by thy might led us into the light, keep us forever in the path, we pray. Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met thee; lest our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget thee; shadowed beneath thy hand, may we forever stand, true to our God, true to our native land.

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,

and lead us not into temptation,

 but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,

 for ever and ever.

 Amen.

Scripture Lesson                                 Acts 2: 14-21

14 But Peter, standing with the eleven, raised his voice and addressed them, “Fellow Jews and all who live in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen to what I say. 15 Indeed, these are not drunk, as you suppose, for it is only nine o’clock in the morning. 16 No, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:

17 ‘In the last days it will be, God declares,
that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh,
    and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
and your young men shall see visions,
    and your old men shall dream dreams.
18 Even upon my slaves, both men and women,
    in those days I will pour out my Spirit,
        and they shall prophesy.
19 And I will show portents in the heaven above
    and signs on the earth below,
        blood, and fire, and smoky mist.
20 The sun shall be turned to darkness
    and the moon to blood,
        before the coming of the Lord’s great and glorious day.
21 Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’

Closing Chorus        Give Thanks        TFWS 2036

Give thanks with a grateful heart, 

give thanks to the Holy One, 

give thanks because he's given Jesus Christ his Son. 

And now let the weak say, "I am strong"; 

let the poor say, "I am rich 

because of what the Lord has done for us."

Give thanks with a grateful heart, 

give thanks to the Holy One, 

give thanks because he's given Jesus Christ his Son. 

And now let the weak say, "I am strong"; 

let the poor say, "I am rich 

because of what the Lord has done for us."

Give thanks!
