”Let Revival Come”

Heavenly Father, I come

Don't have much to offer, Holy One

I'm humbled by all that You've done

And even though I walk through the valley

I don't have to fear

You have called me from my sorrow to

gladness, I have You

What more could I want?

Chorus

So, raise my faith a little higher

Set my spirit on fire

Lord, we're asking You to move

You're the God of restoration

The One who gives salvation

Let revival come

Let revival come

You are the God who calms the sea

The same God who healeth me

You are the One who makes me strong

And even though I walk through the valley

I don't have to fear

You have called me from my sorrow to

gladness, I have You

What more could I want?

Revive me, revive me with the

Joy that You bring, joy that You bring

Revive me, revive me with the

Joy that You bring, joy that You bring

Revive me, revive me with the

Joy that You bring, joy that You bring

The One who gives salvation

PASTORAL PRAYER

SERMON TEXT | 1 PETER 5:1-5 ESV

Shepherd the Flock of God

5 So I exhort the elders among you, as a fellow elder and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, as well as a partaker in the glory that is going to be revealed: 2 shepherd the flock of God that is among you, exercising oversight, not under compulsion, but willingly, as God would have you; not for shameful gain, but eagerly; 3 not domineering over those in your charge, but being examples to the flock. 4 And when the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory. 5 Likewise, you who are younger, be subject to the elders. Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.”

SERMON | Rev. T. Wills

“O Come To The Alter”

Are you hurting and broken within

Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin

Jesus is calling

Have you come to the end of yourself

Do you thirst for a drink from the well

Jesus is calling

Chorus

O come to the altar

The Father's arms are open wide

Forgiveness was bought with

The precious blood of Jesus Christ

Verse

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes

Come today there's no reason to wait

Jesus is calling

Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy

From the ashes a new life is born

Jesus is calling

Bow down before him For he is Lord of all

Sing alleluia Christ is risen

Verse

Bear your cross as you wait for the crown

Tell the world of the treasure you've found
