Call to Worship - Psalm 78:1-7
Hymn of Praise - “Thrive”
Intro
Oh oh
Verse 1
Here in this worn and weary land
Where many a dream has died
Like a tree planted by the water
We never will run dry
Pre-Chorus
So living water flowing through
God we thirst for more of You
Fill our hearts and flood our souls
With one desire
Chorus
Just to know You and to make You known
We lift Your name on high
Shine like the sun make darkness run and hide
We know we were made for so much more
Than ordinary lives
It's time for us to more than just survive
We were made to thrive
Verse 2
Into Your Word we're digging deep
To know our Father's heart
Into the world we're reaching out
To show them who You are
Bridge
Joy unspeakable
Faith unsinkable
Love unstoppable
Anything is possible
(REPEAT 3X)
Interlude
Oh oh
Oh oh
Ending
We were made to thrive

Hymn of Invitation - #486 “Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy”
Verse 1
Come ye sinners poor and needy
Weak and wounded sick and sore
Jesus ready stands to save you
Full of pity love and power
Chorus
I will arise and go to Jesus
He will embrace me in His arms
In the arms of my dear Savior
O there are ten thousand charms
Verse 2
Come ye thirsty come and welcome
God's free bounty glorify
True belief and true repentance
Every grace that brings you nigh
Verse 3
Let not conscience make you linger
Nor of fitness fondly dream
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him
Verse 4
Come ye weary heavy laden
Lost and ruined by the fall
If you tarry till you're better
You will never come at all
