THE GATHERING Robert Gray
Leader: The Lord be with you.
People: And also with you.
THE PRELUDE Walter Huff, organist
THE CALL TO WORSHIP
Leader: Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness.
Come into God’s presence with singing!
People: For the Lord is a gracious God, whose mercy is everlasting, and
whose faithfulness endures to all generations.
Leader: Praise the Lord!
People: Let us worship God: Father, Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.
- Psalm 100: 1-2, 5
* THE PROCESSIONAL HYMN 476 O Worship the King, All Glorious Above!
(verses 1, 2, 3, and 5)
THE CALL TO CONFESSION
THE PRAYER OF CONFESSION
Merciful God, we confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word and
deed, by what we have done, and by what we have left undone. We have not
loved you with our whole heart and mind and strength. We have not loved our
neighbors as ourselves. In your mercy, forgive what we have been, help us amend
what we are, and direct what we shall be, so that we may delight in your will and
walk in your ways, to the glory of your holy name. Amen.
A MOMENT OF SILENCE (for examination of conscience and personal prayers of confession)
THE ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Leader: Hear the Good News! The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ
Jesus came into the world to save sinners.
People: He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, that we might be dead
to sin and alive to all that is good.
Leader: Believe the promise of the Gospel:
People: In Jesus Christ, our sins are forgiven.
- 1 Timothy 1:15; 1 Peter 2:24
*THE CONGREGATIONAL RESPONSE (Hymn 341)
This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song, praising my Savior all the day long.

THE CONCERNS OF THE CHURCH

THE FIRST LESSON Ecclesiastes 5:1-6 (page 582 in the pew Bible, OT)
THE ANTHEM Lord, I Cry to You Stone/Cox, arr. Hill
May my prayer be as incense, a sweet and fragrant offering. Lifted to your throne, raised
to you alone. Lord, I cry to you. Come quickly unto me, listen to my voice. May my hands
that are uplifted be my evening sacrifice, my morning supplication, my noontime plea.
May the day I know your answer show a truth I then behold; your loving and your kindness,
my strength from days of old. Hear me, Lord, I cry to you.
THE SECOND LESSON Matthew 8:18-28 (page 8 in the pew Bible, NT)
THE SERMON “Killed by An Illusion” Glenn Small
* THE HYMN 286 Give to the Winds Thy Fears
* THE 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 hell; the third day he rose again from the dead; he ascended into
heaven, and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he
shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Ghost; the holy
catholic church; the communion of saints; the forgiveness of sins; the resurrection
of the body; and the life everlasting. Amen.
THE PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE AND THE LORD’S PRAYER
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 debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but
deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever.
Amen.
THE OFFERTORY Bourrée 1 and 2 (English Suite #2) J.S. Bach
* THE DOXOLOGY AND PRAYER OF DEDICATION (Hymn 592)
* THE HYMN 332 Live Into Hope
* THE CHARGE AND BENEDICTION
* THE CHORAL RESPONSE God Is My Strong Salvation Austin Lovelace
(based on a Southern folk hymn from "The Sacred Harp"-1844)
God is my strong salvation. What foe have I to fear? In darkness and temptation, my light, my help is
near. Though hosts encamp around me, firm in the fight I stand. What terror can confound me, with
God at my right hand?
