“My heart is overflowing with a good theme;
I recite my composition concerning the King;
My tongue is the pen of a ready writer.
You are fairer than the sons of men;
Grace is poured upon Your lips;
Therefore God has blessed You forever.
Gird Your sword upon Your thigh,
O Mighty One,
with Your glory and Your majesty.
And in Your majesty ride prosperously because of truth, humility, and righteousness; and Your right hand shall teach You awesome things.”
Psalm 45: 1-4

1. Speak, O Lord, as we come to You, to receive the food of Your Holy Word.
Take Your Truth, plant it deep in us; shape and fashion us in Your likeness;
That the light of Christ might be seen today – in our acts of love and our deeds of faith.
Speak, O Lord and fulfill in us all Your purposes for Your glory.
2. Teach us Lord, full obedience, Holy reverence, true humility –
Test our thoughts and our attitudes; in the radiance of Your purity.
Cause our faith to rise, cause our eyes to see – Your majestic love and authority.
Words of pow’r that can never fail; Let their truth prevail – over unbelief.
3. Speak, O Lord, and renew our minds; Help us grasp the heights of Your plans for us.
Truths unchanged from the dawn of time, that will echo down through eternity.
And by grace we’ll stand on Your promises; And by faith we’ll walk as You walk with us.
Speak, O Lord, ́til Your church is built, and the earth is filled with Your glory.

Offertory Hymn“Lord, Thy Church
on Earth is Seeking”/
“Glorify Thy Name”
1. Lord, Thy church on earth is seek-ing Thy renewal from a-bove;
Teach us all the art of speak-ing with the accent of Thy- love.
We would heed- Thy great commis-sion: “Go ye into ev’ry place;
Preach, baptize, fulfill My mis-sion, Serve with- love- and- share My grace.”
2. Freedom, give to those in bond-age, lift the burdens caused by- sin;
Give new hope, new strength and cour-age, grant release from fears with-in.
Light for dark-ness, joy for sor-row; Love for hatred, peace for strife.
These and countless blessings fol-low as the Spir-it gives new life.
3. In the streets of ev’ry ci-ty where the bruised and lone-ly dwell,
We shall show the Savior’s pi-ty, we shall of His mer-cy tell.
In all lands- and with all ra-ces, we shall serve and seek to bring-
All the world to render prais-es, Christ, to- Thee-, Re-deemer, King.
(piano introduction)
