As stewards of God’s words and works, it is with delight that we have the opportunity to gather as His people in worship by way of a reminder of the truth, power, and goodness of the sacred Scriptures. May we gather in His name and for His glory as we endeavor to make much of Christ through scripture, prayer, song, and the preaching of His Word. We look forward to gathering together this Lord’s day – For Christ, to God’s Glory, and Man’s Joy!

This Sunday’s Sermon
No One Like Him | Acts 17:16-29 | Manny Pereira
Full of gods, yet without God. Athens, the proudest seat of human wisdom, presents a microcosm of mankind. In this epic passage, a graphic picture of the tragedy of godless intelligence is sketched in brief. In the most learned city on earth, Paul is provoked by the robbery of God’s glory and addresses the apostasy of man’s mind. Man’s wisdom had become foolishness, and God’s glory had been given to man’s making. It is a searching passage that exposes the significance of a man’s underlying worldview, confronting his mind with the one true God and inferring the impossibility of the contrary. Here the unknown God is made known, and there is no one like Him.

Today’s Song Lyrics
Rejoice, the Lord Is King
Verse 1
Rejoice, the Lord is King!
Your Lord and King adore.
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing
And triumph evermore.
Lift up your heart!
Lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Verse 2
Our Savior, Jesus, reigns,
The God of truth and love;
When He had purged our stains,
He took His seat above:
Lift up your heart!
Lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Verse 3
His kingdom cannot fail,
He rules o’er earth and heav’n;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus giv’n:
Lift up your heart!
Lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Verse 4
Rejoice in glorious hope,
For Christ the Judge shall come
To gather all His saints
To their eternal home:
Lift up your heart!
Lift up your voice;
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

Who Is Like the Lord?
Verse 1
Whose wisdom stood before the ages?
Whose voice sang out creation’s light?
And whose word remains
Though earth and heaven pass away?
The Word revealed to all mankind.
Verse 2
Who wakes the mind’s imagination?
Who stirs the soul to endless awe?
And who shaped the heart
To hold the deepest joy of life?
The nearness of the living God.
(Chorus)
Who is like the Lord, God Almighty,
High and lifted up, the Holy One?
Blessed be His name,
The King who reigns forevermore.
Who is like the Lord our God?
Verse 3
Whose hand could write the song of mercy
That moves the sinner’s heart to sing?
And whose arm is strong
To save us with redeeming love,
In Christ to reconcile all things?
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 4
He is the Lord, there is no other.
To Him belongs the highest praise.
So, as we draw near
With deepest joy and reverent fear,
Our hearts we bow, our voices raise.
(Repeat Chorus)

Christ, Our Wisdom
Verse 1
Christ, our wisdom, we are humbled
When You hide Your ways from us;
You have purposes unnumbered,
Each one good and glorious.
Help us trust when we grow weary,
Free us from our anxious thoughts;
Give us grace to see more clearly;
You are God, and we are not.
Verse 2
Christ, our wisdom, be our gladness
When we fail to understand;
You ordain all joy and sadness
To fulfill Your perfect plan.
Help us know You rule with power
Over ev’ry raging flood;
In our most uncertain hour,
You are God, and we are loved.
Verse 3
Christ, our wisdom, we will follow
Though the way ahead is veiled;
As we journey through the shadows,
Grant us faith where sight has failed.
Help us cling to Your commandments,
Strengthened by Your faithful Word;
We will never be abandoned;
You are God, and we are Yours.
Verse 4
Christ, our wisdom, we adore You
For the beauty of the cross;
Once in foolishness we scorned You,
But Your blood has ransomed us.
Help us sing the endless mercies
Of Your humble heart to save;
Christ our wisdom, Christ our glory,
You are God, forever praised.
(Tag)
Help us sing the endless mercies
Of Your humble heart to save;
Christ our wisdom, Christ our glory,
You are God, forever praised.

All I Have Is Christ
Verse 1
I once was lost in darkest night,
Yet thought I knew the way;
The sin that promised joy and life
Had led me to the grave.
I had no hope that You would own
A rebel to Your will,
And if You had not loved me first,
I would refuse You still.
Verse 2
But as I ran my hell-bound race,
Indifferent to the cost,
You looked upon my helpless state
And led me to the cross.
And I beheld God’s love displayed:
You suffered in my place.
You bore the wrath reserved for me;
Now all I know is grace.
(Chorus)
Hallelujah,
All I have is Christ!
Hallelujah,
Jesus is my life!
Verse 3
Now, Lord, I would be Yours alone,
And live so all might see
The strength to follow Your commands
Could never come from me.
O Father, use my ransomed life
In anyway You choose,
And let my song forever be:
“My only boast is You!”
(Repeat Chorus)

Ancient of Days
Verse 1
Though the nations rage
Kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King
Reigning over all
So I will not fear for this truth remains:
That my God is the Ancient of Days
(Chorus)
None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
Verse 2
Though the dread of night
Overwhelms my soul
He is here with me
I am not alone
O His love is sure and He knows my name
For my God is the Ancient of Days
(Repeat Chorus)
Verse 3
Though I may not see
What the future brings
I will watch and wait
For the Savior King
Then my joy complete standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days
(Repeat Chorus)
