CHRIST, WHOSE GLORY FILLS THE SKIES - by Charles Wesley , 1707-1788
Public Domain
Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true, the only Light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o'er the shades of night;
Day-spring from on high, be near;
Day-star, in my heart appear.
Dark and cheerless is the morn
Unaccompanied by thee;
Joyless is the day's return,
Till thy mercy's beams I see;
Till they inward light impart,
Glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
Visit then this soul of mine,
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
Fill me, Radiancy Divine,
Scatter all my unbelief;
More and more thyself display,
Shining to the perfect day.

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,
for ever and ever. Amen.

I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth:
And in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord;
Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit;
Born of the Virgin Mary,
Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
Was crucified, dead, and buried;
He descended into hell;
The third day he rose again from the dead;
He ascended into heaven
And sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit;
The holy catholic church; *
The communion of saints;
The forgiveness of sins;
The resurrection of the body;
And the life everlasting.
Amen.
* Note: "catholic church" here means the entire body of
believers in Christ, not just one particular church.
[1] And when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to Beth'phage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples,
[2] saying to them, "Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find an ass tied, and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to me.
[3] If any one says anything to you, you shall say, `The Lord has need of them,' and he will send them immediately."
[4] This took place to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet, saying,
[5] "Tell the daughter of Zion, Behold, your king is coming to you, humble, and mounted on an ass, and on a colt, the foal of an ass."
[6] The disciples went and did as Jesus had directed them;
[7] they brought the ass and the colt, and put their garments on them, and he sat thereon.
[8] Most of the crowd spread their garments on the road, and others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
[9] And the crowds that went before him and that followed him shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!"
[10] And when he entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, "Who is this?"
[11] And the crowds said, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee."

ALL THE WAY MY SAVIOUR LEADS ME - by Fanny J. Crosby, 1875
- Public Domain -
All the way my Saviour leads me;
What have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His faithful mercies,
Who through life has been my guide?
Heav'nly peace, divinest comfort,
Here by faith in Him do dwell;
For I know whate'er befall me,
Jesus doeth all things well.
All the way my Saviour leads me,
Cheers each winding path I tread;
Gives me strength for every trial,
Feeds me with the living bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me,
Lo, a spring of joy I see.
All the way my Saviour leads me,
O the fullness of His love!
Perfect rest to me is promised,
In my Father's house above;
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
Wings its flight to realms of day,
This my song through endless ages:
"Jesus led me all the way."
Follow the Lord As He Leads! Hello xxx,
Thank you for the honor of asking my advice! I really don't know much about xxxxx, but I do know that the Lord will lead you STEP-BY- STEP to where He wants you to go. The secret is you must obey Him in the little things, and then He will give you more and more. Sometimes (usually) it doesn't make sense to you, what He is doing. You won't see the picture until all the pieces are complete. THEN you will say, "Oh! Now I understand why He did THAT!"
So how do you obey Him? How does He communicate to you? Sometimes He does NOT communicate directly to you. In this case, do the best you can to obey His will as you find it expressed in the Bible. At the very least, obey the ten commandments plus the "Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and love thy neighbor as thyself" commandment. Then try to cultive the "Fruits of the Spirit." Try to be gentle, humble, slow to anger, quick to forgive, patient, meek, grateful. Ask Him to be with you, tell Him you love Him, tell Him that His love is more important to you than anything else. Pretty soon, He will make Himself known to you personally.
Be sensitive to that, listen for His distinctive voice. Then, do whatever He tells you to do, whether you understand "why" or not. Now, imposters (the evil one, you know) will try to confuse you with false messages. So recognize that the Lord will never tell you to do something that is contrary to scripture. So the Bible is your safeguard in this matter. Also, an imposter spirit will choke on his own tongue before he can utter the words "I know and declare that Jesus Christ is the risen Son of God and Saviour of the world." So if the voice that is speaking to you refuses to declare Jesus as Son of God, then do not listen to it.
One more word. Let HIM lead you, not yourself. Make yourself available to Him in any way He wants, then let Him tell you what to do.
Each of us must submit to something, even if it is only death. So why not go as high as you can go? Give yourself TOTALLY to the Lord, and let Him use you any way He wants. Don't question Him at all, once you are sure it is Him speaking. He is quite loving and reasonable, and He usually treats you better than you could have thought up for yourself!
May God bless you in your walk with Him.
Yours in Christ, Bill McGinnis
NOTE: When you read this prayer, try to imagine hearing my voice as I
speak it to you. In this way, the prayer is reactivated, and it
the same as if I were actually praying for you at that moment.
(Just like television prayers are reactivated when you watch
them, although the videotape may have been shot years before.)
Perhaps you are a Christian even now,
You go to church and try to do your best,
You try to put His teachings in your life,
But still you do not feel that He is yours.
You do not feel the closeness that you crave.
If this is you, then say this prayer with me:
* * *
O Lord, I want you closer in my life,
I want you more to be a part of me.
I want the best relationship with you,
That anyone on earth could ever have.
I know that, "as we give, we shall receive,"
And so I now do give myself to you,
In full completeness, holding nothing back.
I'm yours, so you may use me as you will,
And take whatever things you want from me.
And now that I did give myself to you,
I pray that you will give yourself to me,
As bridegroom gives himself to his new bride.
In Jesus' holy name I pray, Amen.

More lyrics and suggestions for use in your worship services.
1. Divide the congregation into two groups, perhaps males and females or youth and adult. Then have one group ask the question, "Do you know Jesus?" and the other group answers, "Yes we know Jesus!" Then reverse the groups and repeat the process.
Do you know Jesus?
Do you know Jesus?
Do you know Jesus,
And the wonder of His love?
Yes, we know Jesus!
Yes, we know Jesus!
Yes, we know Jesus,
And the wonder of His love!
2. Then have everybody ask themselves the question, "Do we know Jesus?"
and answer it, "Yes, we know Jesus!"
Do we know Jesus?
Do we know Jesus?
Do we know Jesus,
And the wonder of His love?
Yes, we know Jesus!
Yes, we know Jesus!
Yes, we know Jesus,
And the wonder of His love!
Blessings to you in Jesus Christ our Lord.
