Chorus “Great Is the Lord” TFWS #2022
Great is the Lord, he is holy and just;
by his power we trust in his love.
Great is the Lord, he is faithful and true;
by his mercy he proves his love.

Refrain
Great is the Lord and worthy of glory!
Great is the Lord and worthy of praise.
Great is the Lord; now lift up his voice, now lift up is voice;
Great is the Lord! Great is the Lord!

Great are you Lord and worthy of glory!
Great are you Lord, and worthy of praise.
Great are you Lord; I lift up my voice, I lift up my voice:
Great are you, Lord!
Great are you Lord! Refrain

Unison Invocation
Gracious God, What else can we do but keep coming to you, even when we feel alone? What else can we do but sing when we feel afraid? What else can we do but pray when we feel lost? So, we pray, sing, and come to you in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Hymn “Have Thine Own Way, Lord” UMH #382
Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Thou art the potter; I am the clay.
Mold me and make me, after thy will,
While I am waiting, yielded and still.

Have thine own way Lord!
Have thine own way!
Wounded and weary, help me I pray!
Power, all power, surely is thine!
Touch me and heal me, Savior divine!

Have thine own way, Lord!
Have thine own way!
Hold o’er my being absolute sway.
Fill with thy Spirit till all shall see
Christ only, always, living in me!

Prayers of the People and The Lord's Prayer (in Unison)
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 trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Message   “That’s Not Fair –It’s Grace” Matthew 20:1-16

Hymn “Amazing Grace” UMH #378
Amazing grace!
How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed.

Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
‘tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.

Stewardship Moment

Benediction
May the peace of the Lord Jesus go with you
wherever he may send you.
May he guide you through the wilderness,
protect you through the storm.
May he bring you home rejoicing
at the wonders he has shown you.
May he bring you home rejoicing once again into our doors
