Hymn: “Savior Like A Shepherd Lead Us”

Verse 1

Savior, like a shepherd lead us, Much we need thy tender care; In thy pleasant pastures feed us, For our use thy folds prepare. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! Thou hast bought us, thine we are. Blesses Jesus, Blessed Jesus! Thou has bought us, thine we are. Verse 2

We are thine, thou dost befriend us, Be the guardian of our way;

Keep thy flock, from sin defend us, Seek us when we go astray.

Blesses Jesus, blessed Jesus! Hear, O hear us when we pray. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! Hear, O hear us when we pray!

Verse 3

Thou has promised to receive us, Poor and sinful though we be; Thou hast mercy to relieve us, Grace to cleanse and power to free. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus!

We will early turn to thee. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! We will early turn to thee. Verse 4

Early let us seek thy favor, Early let us do thy will; Blessed Lord and only Savior, Wit thy love our bosoms fill. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! Thou has loved us, love us still. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! Thou has loved us, love us still. Words: Attr. To Dorothy A. Thrupp, 1836 (Jn. 10:1-29)

Pastoral Prayer

Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 5:14-18, John 3:1-8

2 Corinthians 5:14-18 (NIV) 14

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15 And he died for all, that those who live

should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

16

So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded

(3)

Christ in this way, we do so no longer. 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has

come: The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this

is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation.

John 3:1-8 (NIV)

3 Now there was a Pharisee, a man named

Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. 2 He came to Jesus at night and said,

“Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.” 3

Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” 4

“How can someone be born when they are old?” Nicodemus asked. “Surely they cannot enter a second time into their mother’s womb to be born!”

5

Jesus answered, “Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. 6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. 7 You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born

again.’ 8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

Hymn:

“Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me”

Verse 1

What gift of grace is Jesus my Redeemer There is no more for heaven now to give He is my joy my righteousness and freedom My steadfast love my deep and boundless peace

To this I hold my hope is only Jesus For my life is wholly bound to His Oh how strange and divine I can sing all is mine

The night is dark but I am not forsaken For by my side the Savior He will stay I labor on in weakness and rejoicing For in my need His power is displayed To this I hold my Shepherd will defend me Through the deepest valley He will lead Oh the night has been won

and I shall overcome

Yet not I but through Christ in me Verse 3

No fate I dread I know I am forgiven The future sure the price it has been paid

For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon And He was raised to overthrow the grave To this I hold my sin has been defeated Jesus now and ever is my plea

Oh the chains are released I can sing I am free

Yet not I but through Christ in me Verse 4

With every breath I long to follow Jesus For He has said that He will bring me home And day by day I know He will renew me Until I stand with joy before the throne To this I hold my hope is only Jesus All the glory evermore to Him When the race is complete still my lips shall repeat

Yet not I but through Christ in me Ending

When the race is complete still my lips shall repeat

Yet not I but through Christ in me Yet not I but through Christ in me
