All Glory Laud and Honor (Trinity Hymnal #235)

Confession of Sin

Heavenly Father, who is rich in grace and abundant in mercy, we humbly approach you this morning to confess our many and persistent sins. You have promised to strengthen us by your Spirit, but we strive to sustain ourselves. You have promised us knowledge and wisdom in Christ, but we doubt your Word and your truth. You have promised to fill us with your fullness of your love, but in fear we pretend contentment in the things of this world. Forgive us of our sins. Strengthen the weakness of our faith, transform the doubts of our hearts and minds, and fill us with your unfailing love and inexhaustible goodness according to the riches of your glory. Amen.

Assurance of Pardon

Romans 8:14-17

Confession of Faith

Nicene Creed

We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of his Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom all things were made; who for us and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried; and the third day he rose again according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father; and he shall come again, with glory, to judge both the living and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.

And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets; and we believe in one holy catholic and apostolic church; we acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the dead, and of the life of the world to come. Amen. 

Gloria Patri

Glory be to the Father
And to the Son
And to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning
Is now and ever shall be
World without end, Amen.

Prayer of Supplication & Lord’s Prayer

Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.

Praise to the Lord, the Almighty (from Psalm 103) (Trinity Hymnal #53)

Confession of Sin

Gracious God, we confess that we have longed too much for the comforts of this world. We have loved the gifts more than the giver. In your mercy, help us to see that all the things we pine for are shadows, but you are substance; that they are quicksands, but you are mountain; that they are shifting, but you are anchor. We plead your forgiveness on the merits of Jesus Christ. Accept his worthiness for our unworthiness, his sinlessness for our transgressions, his fullness for our emptiness, his glory for our shame, his righteousness for our dead works, his death for our life. We pray in Jesus’ name. Amen.

O Splendor of God’s Glory Bright (Trinity Hymnal #58)

Confession of Sin

O Holy God, You who dwells in unapproachable light, we know the truth of Your words: “there is none righteous, not even one.” We know that those who are in the flesh cannot please You, because without faith it is impossible to do so. We come to You with faith in Christ Jesus, who alone always does what pleases You. We believe in Him, and rest in His works not our own. We believe, help our unbelief. We believe, forgive us when we have not walked in this belief. Help us to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in knowledge. Cause the words of our mouths, and the meditations of our hearts to be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord. Forgive us that we have not made Your holy pleasure our ambition. Forgive us, and stir in us a zeal to love You by obeying Your commandments, by offering warm worship, by pursuing virtue, and by being zealous to walk in good works, in Jesus Christ in whose name we pray. Amen.

O Lord, How Shall I Meet You (Trinity Hymnal #156)

Confession of Sin

Almighty God, we acknowledge and confess that we have sinned against you in thought, word, and deed; we have not loved you with all of our heart, soul, mind, and strength; we have not loved our neighbor as ourselves. Deepen within us our sorrow for the wrong we have done, and the good we have left undone. Lord, you are full of compassion and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy; there is always forgiveness with you! Restore to us the joy of your salvation; bind up that which is broken, give light to our minds, strength to our wills, and rest to our souls. Speak to each of us, and let your word abide with us until it has wrought in us your holy will. Amen.

Let Us Love and Sing and Wonder (Trinity Hymnal #172)

Confession of Sin

God of all grace, we are weak and forgetful people, easily distracted by the joys and sorrows of our lives. We are capable of great thoughts concerning you one moment, yet we forget your kindness and live as though we had no hope the next. Forgive us, Father, for the unbelief that clings to our sinful flesh and clouds our minds with doubt and fear. May Christ’s death comfort us, for we have been loved with unfathomable love. May his resurrection assure us that his obedience was perfect, his sacrifice accepted, and his work finished. Help us hold fast to the gospel we have believed: to cherish it in our weakness and to profess its power when we stand strong. Deepen our faith and guard our hearts and minds with the helmet of Christ’s salvation, the breastplate of his righteousness, the shield of his faith, the sandals of his peace, and the sword of his truth. In his strong name we pray, Amen.
