Call to Worship

“Victory In Jesus”

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,The emblem of suff’ring and shame;

And I love that old cross

where the dearest and bestFor a world of lost sinners was slain.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,Till my trophies at last I lay down;I will cling to the old rugged cross,

And exchange it some day for a crown.

“The Old Rugged Cross”

Oh, that old rugged cross, so despised by the world,Has a wondrous attraction for me;

For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above,To bear it to dark Calvary.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,Till my trophies at last I lay down;I will cling to the old rugged cross,

And exchange it some day for a crown.

“The Old Rugged Cross”

In the old rugged cross,

stained with blood so divine,Such a wondrous beauty I see;

For ’twas on that old cross

Jesus suffered and died,To pardon and sanctify me.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,Till my trophies at last I lay down;I will cling to the old rugged cross,

And exchange it some day for a crown.

“The Old Rugged Cross”

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true;Its shame and reproach gladly bear;

Then He’ll call me some day

to my home far away,Where His glory forever I’ll share.

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross,Till my trophies at last I lay down;I will cling to the old rugged cross,

And exchange it some day for a crown.

“Amazing Grace”

Senior Choir

When the captain there saw what happened, he honored God: "This man

was innocent! A good man, and innocent!" All who had come around as

spectators to watch the show, when they saw what actually happened, were overcome with grief and headed home. Those who knew Jesus well, along with the women who had followed him from Galilee, stood at a respectful distance

and kept vigil. There was a man by the name of Joseph, a member of the

Jewish High Council, a man of good heart and good character. He had not gone along with the plans and actions of the council. His hometown was the

Jewish village of Arimathea. He lived in alert expectation of the kingdom of

God. He went to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Taking him down, he

wrapped him in a linen shroud and placed him in a tomb chiseled into the

rock, a tomb never yet used. It was the day before Sabbath, the

Sabbath just about to begin. The women who had been companions of

Jesus from Galilee followed along. They saw the tomb where Jesus' body was

placed. Then they went back to prepare burial spices and perfumes.

They rested quietly on the Sabbath, as commanded.

Sermon

WAITING AT THE CROSS

Rev. Dan Deaton

The cross upon which Jesus died

Is a shelter in which we can hide;

And its grace so free is sufficient for me,

And deep is its fountain as wide as the sea.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.

“Room at the Cross” The cross upon which Jesus died

Is a shelter in which we can hide;

And its grace so free is sufficient for me,

And deep is its fountain as wide as the sea.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.

“Room at the Cross”

“Room at the Cross” Tho’ millions have found Him a friend

And have turned from the sins they have sinned,

The Savior still waits to open the gates

And welcome a sinner before it's too late.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.

“Room at the Cross” Tho’ millions have found Him a friend

And have turned from the sins they have sinned,

The Savior still waits to open the gates

And welcome a sinner before it's too late.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.

“Room at the Cross” The hand of my Savior is strong,

And the love of my Savior is long;

Thro’ sunshine or rain, thro’ loss or in gain,

The blood flows from Calv'ry

to cleanse every stain.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.

“Room at the Cross” The hand of my Savior is strong,

And the love of my Savior is long;

Thro’ sunshine or rain, thro’ loss or in gain,

The blood flows from Calv'ry

to cleanse every stain.

There's room at the cross for you;

There's room at the cross for you.

Tho’ millions have come,

There's still room for one-

Yes, there's room at the cross for you.
