Welcome and Intimations

Prayer 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,
the power, and the glory
for ever and ever.
Amen.

MP 691 This Is the Day

1. This is the day, this is the day
   that the Lord has made,
   that the Lord has made;
   we will rejoice,
   we will rejoice and be glad in it,
   and be glad in it.
   This is the day that the Lord has made;
   we will rejoice and be glad in it.
   This is the day,
   this is the day that the Lord has made.
   

2. This is the day, this is the day
   when He rose again,
   when He rose again;
   we will rejoice,
   we will rejoice and be glad in it,
   and be glad in it.
   This is the day when He rose again;
   we will rejoice and be glad in it.
   This is the day,
   this is the day when He rose again.
   

3. This is the day, this is the day
   when the Spirit came,
   when the Spirit came; we will rejoice,
   we will rejoice and be glad in it,
   and be glad in it.
   This is the day when the Spirit came;
   we will rejoice and be glad in it.
   This is the day,
   this is the day when the Spirit came.

Meditation

MP 519 O Saviour Christ, I Now Confess

1. O Saviour Christ, I now confess
   You are my Lord, my righteousness,
   I follow Your example true,
   and daily seek to be like you
   

2. These waters have no power, I know,
   to cleanse from sin or grace bestow.
   Tis in obedience to my Lord
   that I am blessed and He’s adored.
   

3. Buried with Christ, I die to sin,
   His risen life and power within.
   And victory is to me assured
   so I surrender to the Lord.
   

4. Tis one more step along the road
   that leads me onward with my Lord.
   Now fill me with the Spirit’s power,
   make this a pentecostal hour.
   

5. Baptising nations in Your name,
   Father, Son, Spirit — still the same.
   In full alignment to the Lord,
   their guide, their strength — the Living Word.
   

6. Then, only then, shall all men hear
   the news, that Christ’s return is near.
   And men shall greet their coming Lord
   by heaven and earth, for e’er adored.

Prayer of Intercession

MP 272 I Have Decided to Follow Jesus

1. I have decided to follow Jesus;
   I have decided to follow Jesus;
   I have decided to follow Jesus;
   No turning back, no turning back.
   

2. Tho' none go with me, I still will follow,
   Tho' none go with me I still will follow,
   Tho' none go with me, I still will follow;
   No turning back, no turning back.
   

3. The world behind me, the cross before me,
   The world behind me, the cross before me;
   The world behind me, the cross before me;
   No turning back, no turning back.
   

4. Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
   Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
   Will you decide now to follow Jesus?
   no turning back, no turning back.
