PRAISE Call to Worship from Psalm 34:1-10 [PLEASE STAND] Mrs Hui Mei Ling Leader I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. My soul

will boast in the LORD; let the afflicted hear and rejoice. People Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together. I sought the

LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. Leader Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.

This poor man called, and the LORD heard him; he saved him out of all his troubles.

People The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.

Leader Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing. ALL The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack

no good thing. Amen.

Songs of Praise Mr Oscar Chng

TIME OF SIMULTANEOUS CONGREGATIONAL PRAYER Shout for joy to the LORD…give thanks to Him and praise His name. (Psalm 100:1, 4)

Usually the congregation is given a specific time period, with a common theme of petition or supplication. Then all pray aloud at the same time in the power of the Spirit. (United Methodist Book of Worship 1992, pg 446)

PRAYER SILENT & INTERCESSORY PRAYER But the LORD is in his holy temple; let all the earth be silent before him. (Habakkuk 2:20)

TIME FOR WATCHING THE LORD I will stand at my watch; I will look to see what he will say to me. (Habakkuk 2:1)

What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church. (1 Corinthians 14:26)
