Invocation

Hymn 3: Give to Our God Immortal Praise Warrington

Prayer of Confession

Turn us, good Lord, and so shall we be turned. Be favorable, O Lord, be favorable to your people, who turn to you in repentance and prayer. For you are a merciful God, full of compassion, long-suffering, and of great pity. You spare when we deserve punishment, and in your wrath think upon mercy. Spare your people, good Lord, spare them, and let not your heritage be brought to confusion. Hear us, O Lord, for your mercy is great, and after the multitude of your mercies look upon us, through the merits and mediation of your blessed Son Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Gospel’s Assurance of Pardon: 1 John 2:1–2

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.

Doxology 733 Lasst Uns Erfreuen
