THE WORD OF GOD FIRST LESSON: Exodus 3:1-12: I have heard the cry of my people SOLO: Sing ye a joyful song A. Dvorak SECOND LESSON: Luke 10:17-24: I saw Satan fall like lightning THE SERMON HYMN #320 O God Our Help St. Anne 1. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home: 4. A thousand ages in your sight 2. Under the shadow of your throne Your saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is your arm alone, And our defense is sure. Are like an evening gone, 3. Before the hills in order stood Or earth received its frame, From everlasting you are God, To endless years the same. Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. THE APOSTLES' CREED 5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream, Soon bears us all away; We fly forgotten, as a dream Dies at the op'ning day. 6. O God, our help in ages past Our hope for years to come, Still be our guard while troubles last And our eternal home! All: I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, God's only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to the dead. On the third day he rose again; he ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic Church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
