Opening Prayer
Passing the Peace (Internet Edition)
Hymn 640 “Sweet Hour of Prayer”
Verse 1
Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
That calls me from a world of care
And bids me at my Father's throne
Make all my wants and wishes known
In seasons of distress and grief
My soul has often found relief
And oft escaped the tempter's snare
By thy return sweet hour of prayer
Verse 2
Sweet hour of prayer
Sweet hour of prayer
Thy wings shall my petition bear
To Him whose truth and faithfulness
Engage the waiting soul to bless
And since He bids me seek His face
Believe His Word and trust His grace
I'll cast on Him my every care
And wait for thee sweet hour of prayer
New Testament 1 Timothy 2:1-6
Prayer Time
Gospel Reading Matthew 6:5-13
Prayer of Thanksgiving
Hymn #348 "My Savior’s Love"
Verse 1
I stand amazed in the presence
Of Jesus the Nazarene
And wonder how He could love me
A sinner condemned unclean
Chorus
How marvelous how wonderful
And my song shall ever be
How marvelous how wonderful
Is my Saviour's love for me
Verse 2
For me it was in the garden
He prayed not My will but Thine
He had no tears for His own griefs
But sweat drops of blood for mine
Verse 3
In pity angels beheld Him
And came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows
He bore for my soul that night
Verse 4
He took my sins and my sorrows
He made them His very own
He bore the burden to Calvary
And suffered and died alone
Verse 5
When with the ransomed in glory
His face I at last shall see
'Twill be my joy through the ages
To sing of His love for me
Meditation
Worship Song “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”
Verse 1
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer
Verse 2
Have we trials and temptations
Is there trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Verse 3
Are we weak and heavy laden
Cumbered with a load of care
Precious Savior still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Do thy friends despise forsake thee
Take it to the Lord in prayer
In His arms He'll take and shield thee
Thou wilt find a solace there
Benediction
