Living Waters
Are you thirsty?
Are you empty?
Come and drink these living waters
Tired and broken
Peace unspoken
Rest beside these living waters
Christ is calling
Find refreshing
At the cross of living waters
Lay your life down
All the old gone
Rise up in these living waters
CHORUS
There’s a river that flows
With mercy and love
Bringing joy to the city of our God
There our hope is secure
Do not fear anymore
Praise the Lord of living waters
Spirit moving
Mercy washing
Healing in these living waters
Lead your children
To the shore line
Life is in these living waters
Are you thirsty?
Are you empty?
Come and drink these living waters
Love, forgiveness
Vast and boundless
Christ, He is our living waters
Are you empty?
Come and drink these living waters

Lay your life down
All the old gone
Rise up in these living waters

Man of Sorrows
Man of sorrows, Lamb of God
By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid
Silent as He stood accused
Beaten, mocked, and scorned
Bowing to the Father's will
He took a crown of thorns
CHORUS
Oh, that rugged cross, my salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out, "Hallelujah"
"Praise and honour unto Thee"
Sent of heaven God's own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
BRIDGE
Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh, is free indeed
See the stone is rolled away
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah, God be praised
He's risen from the grave
By His own betrayed
The sin of man and wrath of God
Has been on Jesus laid
Silent as He stood accused
Beaten, mocked, and scorned
Bowing to the Father's will
He took a crown of thorns
CHORUS
Oh, that rugged cross, my salvation
Where Your love poured out over me
Now my soul cries out, "Hallelujah"
"Praise and honour unto Thee"
Sent of heaven God's own Son
To purchase and redeem
And reconcile the very ones
Who nailed Him to that tree
BRIDGE
Now my debt is paid
It is paid in full
By the precious blood
That my Jesus spilled
Now the curse of sin
Has no hold on me
Whom the Son sets free
Oh, is free indeed
See the stone is rolled away
Behold the empty tomb
Hallelujah, God be praised
He's risen from the grave
Call to Repentance
Merciful God, so often our lives are marked by insecurity and anxiety. We fear failure. It unnerves us. It makes us restless. We desire green pastures and still waters. We want rest for our souls. But we seek rest in the wrong places. Religious rule keeping, success, accomplishments, perfectionism—are some of the ways we look for rest apart from You. If we can accomplish our goals, we say to ourselves, we will feel good about ourselves and find rest. Yet these attempts ultimately fail, leaving us anxious and angry. Loving Father, forgive us for our failed attempts to replace You in our lives. True rest for our souls is found in You alone. Amen.
Silent Confession
Please pray silently
Words of Assurance
Colossians 2:13-14 (ESV)
And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross

Song of Assurance
Jesus Paid It All
I hear the Savior say,
"Your strength indeed is small,
child of weakness, watch and pray,
find in me your all in all."
CHORUS
Jesus paid it all,
all to him I owe;
sin had left a crimson stain,
he washed it white as snow.
Lord, now indeed I find
your power, and yours alone,
can change the leper's spots,
and melt the heart of stone.
For nothing good have I
whereby your grace to claim --
I'll wash my garments white
in the blood of Calv'ry's lamb.
And when, before the throne,
I stand in him complete,
"Jesus died my soul to save,"
my lips shall still repeat.
"Your strength indeed is small,
child of weakness, watch and pray,
find in me your all in all."

Confession of Faith*
Heidelberg Catechism, QA 1
Q. What is your only comfort in life and death?
A. That I am not my own,
but belong with body and soul,
both in life and in death,
to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins
with His precious blood,
and has set me free
from all the power of the devil.
He also preserves me in such a way
that without the will of my heavenly Father
not a hair can fall from my head;
indeed, all things must work together
for my salvation.
Therefore, by His Holy Spirit
He also assures me of eternal life
and makes me heartily willing and ready
from now on to live for Him.

Scripture Reading
John 2:13-25
13 The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 14 In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there. 15 And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables. 16 And he told those who sold the pigeons, "Take these things away; do not make my Father's house a house of trade." 17 His disciples remembered that it was written, "Zeal for your house will consume me." 18 So the Jews said to him, "What sign do you show us for doing these things?" 19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." 20 The Jews then said, "It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?" 21 But he was speaking about the temple of his body. 22 When therefore he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this, and they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
Jesus Knows What Is in Man
23 Now when he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs that he was doing. 24 But Jesus on his part did not entrust himself to them, because he knew all people 25 and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man.z25 and needed no one to bear witness about man, for he himself knew what was in man.

Song of Response
Take My Life And Let It Be
Take my life and let it be
consecrated, Lord, to thee.
Take my moments and my days;
let them flow in endless praise,
let them flow in endless praise.
Take my hands and let them move
at the impulse of thy love.
Take my feet and let them be
swift and beautiful for thee,
swift and beautiful for thee.
Take my voice and let me sing
always, only, for my King.
Take my lips and let them be
filled with messages from thee,
filled with messages from thee.
Take my silver and my gold;
not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use
every power as thou shalt choose,
every power as thou shalt choose.
Take my will and make it thine;
it shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart it is thine own;
it shall be thy royal throne,
it shall be thy royal throne.
Take my love; my Lord, I pour
at thy feet its treasure store.
Take myself, and I will be
ever, only, all for thee,
ever, only, all for thee.
