Opening Song: Come As You Are by Ben Glover, David Crowder, and Matt Maher, sung here by Shane & ShaneLyrics:Come out of sadness from wherever you've beenCome broken-hearted let rescue beginCome find your mercy O sinner come kneelEarth has no sorrow that Heaven can't healEarth has no sorrow that Heaven can't heal(So) Lay down your burdens lay down your shameAll who are broken lift up your faceO wanderer come homeYou're not too farSo lay down your hurt lay down your heartCome as you areThere's hope for the hopelessAnd all those who've strayedCome sit at the table come taste the graceThere's rest for the wearyRest that enduresEarth has no sorrow that Heaven can't cureCome as you areFall in His armsCome as you areThere's joy for the morning O sinner be stillEarth has no sorrow that Heaven can't healEarth has no sorrow that Heaven can't healCome as you areCome as you areCome as you arePassage: 10 And he said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near. 11 Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.”12 “Behold, I am coming soon, bringing my recompense with me, to repay each one for what he has done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”14 Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and that they may enter the city by the gates. 15 Outside are the dogs and sorcerers and the sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.16 “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star.”17 The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, 19 and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.20 He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen. (Revelation Musical Reflection: Nothing But The Blood (PLAINFIELD) by Robert LowryReflection Notes: Lowry wrote several hymns for his congregation’s use in the late nineteenth century. This particular tune is pentatonic (only five notes used per octave) and falls within a small vocal range, which made it accessible for all parishioners to sing and enjoy. Prayer:Almighty God, Father of all mercies, as your unworthy servants, we give you most humble and heartfelt thanks for all your goodness and loving kindness to us and to all people. We bless you for our creation, preservation and all the blessings of this life, but above all, for your precious love in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ, for the means of grace, and for the hope of glory. And we pray that you would give us that due sense of all your mercies that our hearts may be sincerely thankful and that we may show forth your praise not only with our lips but in our lives, by giving up ourselves to your service and by walking before you in holiness and righteousness all our days, through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom with you and the Holy Spirit, be all honor and glory world without end. Amen. -Book of Common Prayer (1662)
