"Breakthrough"

(Verse 1)
I am weary from the waves crashing over every day
God of mercy please come rescue me

(Verse 2)
I am longing for Your voice
The gentle whisper in the noise
Father tell me everything's all right

(Chorus)
Your power Your presence breaks strongholds
King of Heaven when You speak mountains move
I believe there will be breakthrough

(Verse 3)
You alone can take my scars and
Piece by piece restore my heart
Take what's broken
Make it whole again

(Chorus)

(Bridge)
Shake the mountains break the walls apart
Open the heavens Almighty God
You are Overcomer Defender of my heart
By Your power the oceans open wide
Your fire falls down Heaven and earth collide
King Jesus forever by my side

(Chorus) X2

Common Prayer (click arrow)

"Prayer of St. Ignatius"

Teach us, good Lord,
to serve you as you deserve;
to give and not count the cost;
to fight and not heed the wounds;
to toil and not to seek for rest;
to labor and not to ask for any reward,
except that of knowing that we do your will;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

The Lord's Prayer (UMH 895)

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven

Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who
trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
forever. Amen
.

Scripture Reading (click arrow)

Philippians 2:5-11

5 Let the same mind be in you that was in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not regard equality with God as something to be exploited,
7 but emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, being born in human likeness. And being found in human form, 8 he humbled himself and became obedient to the point of death—even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God also highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Closing Hymn (click arrow)

"Come, We That Love the Lord" UMH #732

1. Come, we that love the Lord,
and let our joys be known;
join in a song with sweet accord,
and thus surround the throne.

2. Let those refuse to sing
who never knew our God;
but children of the heavenly King
may speak their joys abroad.

3. The hill of Zion yields
a thousand sacred sweets
before we reach the heavenly fields,
or walk the golden streets.

4. Then let our songs abound,
and every tear be dry;
we're marching through Emmanuel's ground,
to fairer worlds on high.


Come, We That Love the Lord
