OPENING HYMN - Creator Spirit, By Whose Aid

Verse 1

Creator Spirit, by whose aid

The world's foundations first were laid,

Come, visit ev'ry humble mind;

Come, pour Your joys on humankind;

From sin and sorrow set us free;

May we Your living temples be.

Verse 2

O Source of uncreated light,

The bearer of God's gracious might,

Thrice holy fount, thrice holy fire,

Our hearts with heav'nly love inspire;

Your sacred, healing message bring

To sanctify us as we sing.

Verse 4

Immortal honor, endless fame

Attend the almighty Father's name;

The Savior-Son be glorified,

Who for all humankind has died;

To You, O Paraclete, we raise

Unending songs of thanks and praise.

INVOCATION, CONFESSION OF SINS AND WORDS OF FORGIVENESS

Pastor: In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

People: Amen.

Pastor: Our help is in the name of the Lord,

People: who made heaven and earth.

Pastor: If You, O Lord, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand?

People: But with You there is forgiveness; therefore You are feared.

Pastor: Since we are gathered to hear God’s Word, call upon Him in prayer and praise, and receive the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ in the fellowship of this altar, let us first consider our unworthiness and confess before God and one another that we have sinned in thought, word, and deed, and that we cannot free ourselves from our sinful condition. Together as His people let us take refuge in the infinite mercy of God, our heavenly Father, seeking His grace for the sake of Christ, and saying: God, be merciful to me, a sinner.

People: Almighty God, have mercy upon us, forgive us our sins, and lead us to everlasting life. Amen.

Pastor: Almighty God in His mercy has given His Son to die for you and for His sake forgives you all your sins. As a called and ordained servant of Christ, and by His authority, I therefore forgive you all your sins in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

People: Amen.

NICENE CREED

I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth and of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of His Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made; who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and was buried. And the third day He rose again according to the Scriptures and ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of the Father. And He will come again with glory to judge both the living and the dead, whose kingdom will have no end.

And I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets. And I believe in one holy Christian and apostolic Church, I acknowledge one Baptism for the remission of sins, and I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.

WORDS OF INSTITUTION

HYMN - Open Now Thy Gates of Beauty

Verse 1

Open now thy gates of beauty;

Zion, let me enter there,

Where my soul in joyful duty

Waits for Him who answers prayer.

Oh, how blessed is this place,

Filled with solace, light, and grace!

Verse 2

Gracious God, I come before Thee;

Come Thou also unto me.

Where we find Thee and adore Thee,

There a heav'n on earth must be.

To my heart, O enter Thou;

Let it be Thy temple now!

Verse 4

Thou my faith increase and quicken;

Let me keep Thy gift divine,

Howsoe'er temptations thicken;

May Thy Word still o'er me shine

As my guiding star through life,

As my comfort in the strife.

OUR PRAYERS AND LORD'S PRAYER

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 and ever. Amen
