August 18, 2024 Preparation for Worship Time for Gathering Opening Hymn “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God” A mighty fortress is our God a bulwark never failing Our helper He amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe His craft and pow'r are great and armed with cruel hate On earth is not his equal Did we in our own strength confide our striving would be losing Were not the right Man on our side the Man of God's own choosing Dost ask who that may be Christ Jesus it is He Lord Sabaoth His name from age to age the same And He must win the battle And tho' this world with devils filled should threaten to undo us We will not fear for God hath willed His truth to triumph thru us The prince of darkness grim we tremble not for him His rage we can endure for lo his doom is sure One little word shall fell him That word above all earthly pow'rs no thanks to them abideth The Spirit and the gifts are ours thru Him who with us sideth Let goods and kindred go this mortal life also The body they may kill God's truth abideth still His kingdom is forever Amen!

Anderson Closing Hymn “Goodness of God” I love You Lord oh Your mercy never fails me All my days I've been held in Your hands From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head I will sing of the goodness of God Chorus All my life You have been faithful all my life You have been so so good With every breath that I am able I will sing of the goodness of God I love Your voice You have led me through the fire In darkest night You are close like no other I've known You as a father I've known You as a friend I have lived in the goodness of God [Chorus] Your goodness is running after it’s running after me Your goodness is running after it’s running after me With my life laid down I’m surrendered now I give You everything Your goodness is running after it's running after me Benediction The Rev.
