It sounds like music in my ear,
the sweetest name on earth.

10. O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because He first loved me!

who died to set me free;
It tells me of his precious blood,
the sinner’s perfect plea.

12. O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because He first loved me!

13. It tells of one whose loving heart
can feel my deepest woe;
Who in each sorrow bears a part
that none can bear below.

O how I love Jesus,
O how I love Jesus,
because He first loved me!

15. Call To
Worship

16. Leader:
God opposes the proud,
but gives grace to the humble.

17. People:
Submit yourselves therefore to
God. Resist the devil,
and he will flee from you.

18. Leader:
For all who exalt themselves will be
humbled, and those who humble
themselves will be exalted.
Humble yourselves before the Lord, and
he will exalt you.

19. People:
Do nothing from selfish ambition
or conceit, but in humility regard
others as better than yourselves.

20. Leader:
Whoever becomes humble like this
child is the greatest in the kingdom of
heaven.

21. People:
He has told you, O mortal, what
is good; and what does the Lord
require of you but to do justice,
and to love kindness, and to walk
humbly with your God.

25. Call To Prayer
“Touch Through Me Holy
Spirit”
Solo by Sharon Lawrence

26. Touch through me, Holy Spirit,
touch through me,
Let my hands reach out to others,
touch through me;
There's a lonely soul somewhere
needing just one friend to care,
Touch through me, Holy Spirit,
touch through me.

27. Love through me, Holy Spirit,
love through me,
I will be my brother's keeper,
love through me;
Hearts are bleeding deep inside,
love can dry the weeping eye,
Love through me, Holy Spirit,
love through me.

28. Flow through me, Holy Spirit,
flow through me,
Like a river in the desert,
flow through me;
Springing power and healing
strength, living water pure and
clean,
Flow through me, Holy Spirit,

29. My hands will be your hands
reaching out to others,
My lips will not be slothful,
Lord, to speak;
I will be that good Samaritan to
someone else in need,
I will be your house to dwell in,
live through me.

30. Flow through me,
Holy Spirit, flow through me,
Holy Spirit, touch through me,
Holy Spirit, touch through me.

42. Scripture
Reading

43. Judges 4:4-9 (NIV)
4 Now Deborah, a prophet, the wife of
Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that
time. 5 She held court under the Palm
of Deborah between Ramah and
Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim,

44. and the Israelites went up to her to have
their disputes decided. 6 She sent for
Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in
Naphtali and said to him, “The Lord,
the God of Israel, commands you: ‘Go,
take with you ten thousand men of
Naphtali and Zebulun and lead them up
to Mount Tabor.

45. 7 I will lead Sisera, the commander of
Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his
troops to the Kishon River and give
him into your hands.’”
8 Barak said to her, “If you go with me,
I will go; but if you don’t go with me, I
won’t go.”

46. 9 “Certainly I will go with you,” said
Deborah. “But because of the course
you are taking, the honor will not be
yours, for the Lord will deliver Sisera
into the hands of a woman.” So
Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.

47. Luke 8:1-3 (NIV)
The Parable of the Sower
8 After this, Jesus traveled about from
one town and village to another,
proclaiming the good news of the
kingdom of God.

48. The Twelve were with him, 2 and also
some women who had been cured of
evil spirits and diseases: Mary (called
Magdalene) from whom seven demons
had come out; 3 Joanna the wife of
Chuza, the manager of
Herod’s household;

49.
Susanna; and many others.
These women were helping
to support them out of
their own means.

50. Leader:
The Word of God for the
People of God.
People:
Thanks be to God.

“If it had Not Been for
the Lord”
#2053 black hymnal

61. If it had not been for the Lord,
on my side;
Tell me where would I be,
where would I be.

62. He kept my enemies a way,
He let the sunshine through
a cloudy day.
He rocked me in the cradle of his
arm.
When he knew I had been
battered and scorned.

63. If it had not been for the Lord,
on my side;
Tell me where would I be,
where would I be.

64. He never left me all alone;
He gave the peace and joy I'd never
known.
He answered when I knelt to really
pray,
And in victory,
the Lord showed me His way.

65. If it had not been for the Lord,
on my side;
Tell me where would I be,
where would I be.

hand, meeting the needs of body,
mind, and soul. Amen.
