Prayer of Intercession
Prayer of Confession
Gracious God, we are humbled by your love and thankful for the abundant blessings you place in our lives. We know and affirm that all good things come from you. Yet we struggle, Lord, to desire your Son above all other things. Forgive us for the times we seek the good things you provide over an abiding relationship with you. Remind us through the successes and struggles of daily life that the greatest blessing is intimate relationship with you: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. May that reminder shape our lives such that your blessings are extended, to our community and our world. In Christ’s name we pray. Amen.

10,000 Reasons
Bless the Lord O my soul,
O my soul;
worship His holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul;
I'll worship Your holy name
The sun comes up
It's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass and
whatever lies before me
Let me be singing
when the evening comes
Bless the Lord O my soul,
O my soul;
worship His holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul;
I'll worship Your holy name
You're rich in love
and You're slow to anger
Your name is great
and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness
I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for
my heart to find
Bless the Lord O my soul,
O my soul;
worship His holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul;
I'll worship Your holy name
And on that day
when my strength is failing
The end draws near
and my time has come
Still my soul will sing Your
praise unending
Ten thousand years
and then forevermore
Bless the Lord O my soul,
O my soul;
worship His holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul;
I'll worship Your holy name
(Repeat)
Worship Your holy name
Lord, I’ll worship Your holy name

Hymn
Take My Life, and Let It Be #399, v.1 & 3
Take my life, and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands, and let them move
at the impulse of thy love.
Take my feet, and let them be
swift and beautiful for thee.
Take my will, and make it thine;
it shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart, it is thine own;
it shall be thy royal throne.
Take my love, my Lord, I pour
at thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee.
