Hymn 381: Brethren, We Have Met to Worship Holy Manna

Prayer of Confession

O Lord our God, no day of our lives passes that does not prove us guilty in your sight. Even our best efforts are as filthy rags before you. We ask you to forgive our sin because he who knew no sin was made to be sin for us; that in Christ we might be fully pardoned and restored. Grant that by resting in his righteousness alone, we may hereafter walk in newness of life, and run with endurance the race that is set before us, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Gospel’s Assurance of Pardon: 1 Peter 2:24

Christ himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.

Doxology (Trinity Hymnal 732) Tallis’ Canon

Praise God from whom all blessings flow; praise him, all creatures here below;

Praise him above, ye heavenly host: praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Prayer of Illumination (concluding with The Lord’s Prayer)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on 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.

Scripture Reading: Matthew 5:3–12 (page 809)

Offering Prayer

Offertory: My God, I Love Thee (from St. Mark Passion) Charles Wood

My God, I love Thee; not because I hope for heav’n thereby, nor yet because who love Thee not are lost eternally. Thou, O my Jesus, Thou didst me upon the cross embrace; for me didst bear the nails and spear, and manifold disgrace, and griefs and torments numberless, and sweat of agony; yea, death itself; and all for me who wast Thine enemy. Then why, most loving Jesus Christ, should I not love Thee well, not for the hope of winning heav’n, or of escaping hell; not from the hope of gaining aught, not seeking a reward; but as Thyself hast loved me, O everloving Lord? So do I love Thee, and will love, Who such a love hast show’d, only because Thou art my King, because Thou art my God.
