Dearest Jesus, Draw Thou Near MeAmbassador Hymnal #235

Dearest Jesus, draw Thou near me,Let Thy Spirit dwell with mine;Open now my ear to hear Thee,Take my heart and seal it Thine;

Keep me, lead me on my wayThee to follow and obeyE’er to do Thy will and fear Thee,And rejoice to know and hear Thee.

Underneath Thy wings abiding,In Thy Church, O Savior dear,Let me dwell in Thee confiding,Hold me in Thy faith and fear;

Take away from me each thoughtThat with wickedness is fraught,Tempting me to disobey Thee,Root it out, O Lord I pray Thee.

Thou, earth’s greatest joy and gladness,And salvation, full and free.Let Thy presence cheer my sadness,And prepare my soul for Thee!

In the hour when I depart,Touch my spirit, lips, and heart,With Thy Word assure, uphold meTill the heav’nly gates enfold me.

Confession of SinAmbassador Hymnal Pg. 49 #7

Merciful God and Heavenly Father, whose grace endures to all generations, You are patient and longsuffering and will forgive the sins and transgressions of those who truly repent.


Look with compassion upon your people and hear their supplications. We have sinned against You and are unworthy of Your goodness and love. Remember not our transgressions; have mercy upon us and help us O God.


Grant us remission of all our sins and give us the grace of Your Holy Spirit, that we may amend our ways and with You obtain everlasting life, through Your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

Just As I Am, Without One PleaAmbassador Hymnal #417

Just as I am, without one plea, But that Thy blood was shed for me, And that Thou bid’st me come to Thee,O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, and waiting not To rid my soul of one dark blot, To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot,O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, tho’ tossed about With many a conflict, many a doubt, Dread fears within and strife without,O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind; Sight, riches, healing of the mind, Yea, all I need, in Thee to find,O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am! Thou wilt receive, Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve; Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am! Thy love unknown Hast broken every barrier down; Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone, O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

When Peace Like a RiverAmbassador Hymnal #561

When peace like a river attendeth my way,When sorrows like sea billows roll; Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,It is well, it is well with my soul.

Refrain:

It is well with my soul,It is well, it is well with my soul.

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,Let this blest assurance control, That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Refrain:


My sin, O the bliss of this glorious thought;My sin, not in part, but the whole, Is nailed to His cross and I bear it no more,Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul.

Refrain:


And, Lord, haste the day when our faith shall be sight,The clouds be rolled back as a scroll, The trumpet shall sound and the Lord shall descend;Even so it is well with my soul.

Refrain:


The LORD’s PrayerOur 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,

The LORD’s Prayer

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.

Amen

AmenAmen!
