Prelude
Hymn 121
How blest are they whose hearts are pure;
From guile their thoughts are free,
To them shall God reveal Himself,
They shall His glory see.
They truly rest upon His word
In fullest light of love;
In this their trust, they ask no more
Than guidance from above.
They who in faith unmixed with doubt
Th’ engrafted word receive,
Whom every sign of heavenly power
Persuades, and they believe,—
For them far greater things than these
Doth Christ the Lord prepare;
Whose bliss no human heart can reach,
No human voice declare.
Hymn 121. Words: William Goode*. Music: Arr. from Gioacchino A. Rossini (MANOAH)

Silent Prayer
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Hymn 383
Whatever dims thy sense of truth
Or stains thy purity,
Though light as breath of summer air,
O count it sin to thee.
Preserve the tablet of thy thoughts
From every blemish free,
For our Redeemer’s holy faith
Its temple makes with thee.
And pray of God, that grace be given
To tread the narrow way:
How dark soever it may seem,
It leads to cloudless day.
Hymn 383. Words: Mary W. Hale*. Music: William Horsley (HORSLEY)
