Call to Worship: Habakkuk 2:20, 3:18-19
Minister: But the Lord is in his holy
temple; let all the earth keep silence
before him.
People: Yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will
take joy in the God of my salvation.
Minster: God, the Lord, is my strength;
People: He makes my feet like the
deer's; he makes me tread on my high
places.
All: Praise be to God!

Hymnal #296: “All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name”
All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!
Let angels prostrate fall;
bring forth the royal diadem,
and crown him Lord of all;
bring forth the royal diadem,
and crown him Lord of all.

Crown him, ye martyrs of your God,
who from his altar call;
extol the Stem of Jesse's rod,
and crown him Lord of all;
extol the Stem of Jesse's rod,
and crown him Lord of all.

Ye seed of Israel's chosen race,
ye ransomed of the fall,
hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all;
hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all.

Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget
the wormwood and the gall,
go, spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him Lord of all;
go, spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him Lord of all.

Let ev'ry kindred, ev'ry tribe,
on this terrestrial ball,
to him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all;
to him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all.

O that with yonder sacred throng
we at his feet may fall;
we'll join the everlasting song,
and crown him Lord of all;
we'll join the everlasting song,
and crown him Lord of all.

Prayer for Pardon
All: Almighty God and heavenly Father,
we admit that we have fallen short of
what you require. We acknowledge and
confess our sins to you, and rest upon
the finished work of Jesus Christ who
alone can atone for our sin. We pray that
the Holy Spirit would work in us that we
might grow more and more into the
image of Christ. We thank you for the
gift of your free grace as we come to you
through Jesus Christ our Mediator.
Amen.
Assurance of Grace: 1 Peter 1:3

Prayer of the Church: Pastor M. Connor Underseth
Scripture Reading: Nehemiah 12:44-47

Hymnal: 494 “Forgive Our Sins As We Forgive”
Forgive our sins as we forgive
You taught us Lord to pray
But You alone can grant us grace
To live the words we say

How can Your pardon reach and bless
The unforgiving heart
That broods on wrongs and will not let
Old bitterness depart

In blazing light Your cross reveals
The truth we dimly knew
How small the debts men owe to us
How great our debt to You

Lord cleanse the depths within our souls
And bid resentment cease
Then reconciled to God and man
Our lives will spread Your peace

Sermon Scripture: Matthew 6:9-13
Sermon: “Forgive Our Debts ” by Pastor Joel E. Wood

Hymnal #252: “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross”
When I survey the wondrous cross
on which the Prince of glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss,
and pour contempt on all my pride.

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
save in the death of Christ my God:
all the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to his blood.

See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down:
did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
that were a present far too small;
love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all.
