2 For I, the lord your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the chil-dren to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me, but showing mercy to thousands, to those who love Me and keep My commandments. The Confession of Sin and Supplication for Grace Almighty God, our gracious heavenly Father, we acknowledge our transgres-sions. Our sin is ever before us. All our righteousness is as filthy rags; we all do fade as a leaf, and our iniquities, like the wind, take us away; there is none among us who calls upon Your name as we should, nor any that stirs himself to take hold of You. Be merciful to us, O lord . Wash us thoroughly from our iniquities, and cleanse us from our sins. Turn us from our wayward paths. Search and try our ways, and draw us unto You, and let Your lovingkindness and Your truth continually preserve us, to the glory of Christ Jesus our lord , through whom alone we approach You, and for whose sake we would forsake our sins and walk in righteousness.

3 Amen. The Scriptural Assurance of Pardon Hebrews 9:13, 14 For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh; how much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? * * * * The Prelude THIS IS MY FATHER S WORLD arr.

5 Latham I believe in God the Father, Maker of the earth and sky, and his only Son, Christ Jesus, who came hither from on high. Made true Man, by God the Spirit, He was born of Mary Pure, suffered under Pontius Pilate, all the ills of man to cure. Crucified, and dead, and buried, down to hell he took his way, but he rose again with power, on the morn of Easter Day. Now gone up once more to Heaven, sits He at his Father s right, till, to judge the dead and liv-ing, he shall come in glory bright. I believe in God, the Spirit, in one Church below, above, joining all the saints together in one fellowship of love. I believe in God s forgiveness, I believe my flesh shall rise, and I look for life unending in my home beyond the skies. Amen.
