SANCTUARY SERVICE BULLETIN

WELCOME TO OUR SANCTUARY SERVICE

Just a few housekeeping rules: We kindly ask that you remain spaced out from each other in the pews, hallways and bathrooms. Every other pew is marked off, and a volunteer will help you find a seat when you come in. Please make sure that you have checked your temperature before being seated and keep your mask on. The pew cushions have been removed per guidelines, so feel free to use your own pillow or cushion. Right now, there will be no childcare offered for this service.

OPENING WORSHIP:

ANGLES WE HAVE HEARD ON HIGH
 Angels we have heard on high
Sweetly singing o'er the plains,
And the mountains in reply
Echo back their joyous strains.

Refrain:
Gloria in excelsis Deo!
Gloria in excelsis Deo!

Shepherds, why this jubilee?
Why your joyous strains prolong?
What the gladsome tidings be
Which inspire your heav'nly song.

[Refrain]

Come to Bethlehem and see
Him whose birth the angels sing;
Come, adore on bended knee
Christ the Lord, the newborn King.

[Refrain]

Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us persevere. And even more, as we see the Day approaching.

-Heb. 10:25

TAKE ONE STEP UP IN MY GIVING
IN THE BLEAK MID-WINTER
In the bleak mid-winter
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak mid-winter
Long ago.

Our God, Heaven cannot hold Him
Nor earth sustain;
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign:
In the bleak mid-winter
A stable-place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty,
Jesus Christ.

Enough for Him, whom cherubim
Worship night and day,
A breastful of milk
And a mangerful of hay;
Enough for Him, whom angels
Fall down before,
The ox and ass and camel
Which adore.

Angels and archangels
May have gathered there,
Cherubim and seraphim
Thronged the air,
But only His mother
In her maiden bliss,
Worshipped the Beloved
With a kiss.

What can I give Him,
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd
I would bring a lamb,
If I were a wise man
I would do my part,
Yet what I can I give Him,
Give my heart.

CLOSING WORSHIP

GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN
Go tell it on the mountain

Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born

When I was a seeker
I sought both night and day
I asked the Lord to help me
And he showed me the way

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born

He made me a watchman
Upon a city wall
And if I am a Christian
I am the least of all

Go tell it on the mountain
Over the hills and everywhere
Go tell it on the mountain
Our Jesus Christ is born

Need Prayer?
