Invitation to Worship
Gathering Music - Crying Holy Unto the Lord
[Verse 1]
Crying holy unto the Lord
Crying holy unto the Lord
If I could I surely would
Stand on the rock where Moses stood
[Verse 2]
Lord I ain’t no stranger now
Lord I ain’t no stranger now
I’ve been introduced to the Father and the Son
Lord I ain’t no stranger now
[Verse 3]
Sinners run hide your face
Sinners run hide your face
Sinners run to the Lord and hide your face
Lord cried out “No hiding place”
Opening Prayer
Invitation to Worship through Praise - I Saw the Light
[Verse 1]
I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear savior in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
[Chorus]
I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
[Verse 2]
Just like a blind man I wandered along
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
[Chorus]
I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
[Verse 3]
I was a fool to wander and a-stray
Straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord I saw the light.
[Chorus]
I saw the light I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord I saw the light.

Welcome to Community - Tiffany Keith
We are radically, intentionally, connectional. Connection is fundamental to our gatherings. So, will you take a moment to say “hi” or send a wave? Say good morning to one another by commenting, texting, calling, give your loved ones a hug if you are sitting by them, somehow connect during this time of greeting. We want people to know that their church family is thinking about them.

Heart of Worship
Time of Offering - I Am Using My Bible for a Road Map
[Chorus]
There'll be no detours in heaven
No rough roads along the way
I'm using my Bible for a roadmap
My last stop is heaven some sweet day
[Verse 1]
I'm using my Bible for a roadmap
The Ten Commandments they tell me what to do
The twelve disciples are my road signs
And Jesus will take me safely through
[Chorus]
There'll be no detours in heaven
No rough roads along the way
I'm using my Bible for a roadmap
My last stop is heaven some sweet day
[Verse 2]
I'm using my Bible for a roadmap
The children of Israel used it too
They crossed the Red Sea of destruction
For God was there to see them through
[Chorus]
There'll be no detours in heaven
No rough roads along the way
I'm using my Bible for a roadmap
Pastoral Prayer - Laura Whitmore
Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed by 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 forever. Amen.
Worship Song - Leave it There (UMH 522)
[Verse 1]
If the world from you withhold of its silver and its gold
And you have to get along with meager fare
Just remember in His Word how He feeds the little bird
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Chorus]
Leave it there leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
If you trust and never doubt He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Verse 2]
If your body suffers pain and your health you can’t regain
And your soul is almost sinking in despair
Jesus knows the pain you feel He can save and He can heal
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Chorus]
Leave it there leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
If you trust and never doubt He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Verse 3]
When your enemies assail and your heart begins to fail
Don’t forget that God in heaven answers prayer;
He will make a way for you and will lead you safely through
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Chorus]
Leave it there leave it there
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
If you trust and never doubt He will surely bring you out
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
[Verse 4]
When your youthful days are gone and old age is stealing on
And your body bends beneath the weight of care
He will never leave you then He’ll go with you to the end
Take your burden to the Lord and leave it there.
Take Your burden to the Lord and leave it there

Prayer After Receiving
Invitation to Christian Discipleship - I'll Fly Away
[Verse 1]
Some glad morning when this life is o'er
I'll fly away
To a home on God's celestial shore
I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory I'll fly away when I die
Hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
[Verse 2]
When the shadows of this life have flown
I'll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown
I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory I'll fly away when I die
Hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
[Verse 3]
Just a few more weary days and then
I'll fly away
To a land where joy shall never end
I'll fly away
I'll fly away oh Glory yes I'll fly away when I die
Hallelujah by and by I'll fly away
Benediction - Tiffany Keith
Go with God as your strength and shield; May your hearts trust in the one who created you, go with courage; may your wild hearts continue to dance for joy, and in the song of your life, praise your God. Now and Forever, Amen.
Sending Music - Traveling the Highway Home
[Chorus]
Traveling the highway home
I'm traveling the highway home
Oh narrow's the way thank God I can say
I'm traveling the highway home
[Verse 1]
Going toward the sunset of time
Traveling the highway home
Rid this world of sin far behind
Traveling the highway home
[Chorus]
I'm traveling the highway home
I'm traveling the highway home
Oh narrow's the way thank God I can say
I'm traveling the highway home
[Verse 2]
Well ol' Satan said I'd never be
Traveling the highway home
When I resisted he had to flee
Traveling the highway home
[Chorus]
I'm traveling the highway home
I'm traveling the highway home
Oh narrow's the way thank God I can say
I'm traveling the highway home
[Verse 3]
Sometimes the road seems weary and long
Traveling the highway home
But in my heart there's always a song
Traveling the highway home
[Chorus]
I'm traveling the highway home
I'm traveling the highway home
Oh narrow's the way thank God I can say
I'm traveling the highway home
Oh narrow's the way thank God I can say
I'm traveling the highway home
