Psalm 95
 

PASTOR: Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song.

PEOPLE: For the LORD is the great God, the great King above all gods. In his hand are the depths of the earth, and the mountain peaks belong to him. The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.

ALL: Come, let us bow down in worship, let us kneel before the LORD our Maker; for he is our God and we are the people of his pasture, the flock under his care .

PASTOR: The Lord be with you!

ASSURANCE OF PARDON

LEADER:Hear the promises of God to those who truly repent of their sins and trust in Christ: If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, pu rifies us from all sin. Now, lift up your hearts!

PEOPLE: We lift them up to the Lord!"

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands
Come before His presence with joyful singing
Know ye the Lord is God; He hath made us
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture
Enter His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise
Be thankful unto Him and bless His name
For the Lord is good, His mercy everlasting
His truth endureth to all generations

Amen.
