What a wonderful change in my life has been wrought Since Jesus came into my heart! I have light in my soul for which long I have sought, Since Jesus came into my heart!
Refrain
Since Jesus came into my heart, Since Jesus came into my heart, Floods of joy o'er my soul like the sea billows roll, Since Jesus came into my heart.
2
I have ceased from my wand'ring and going astray, Since Jesus came into my heart! And my sins which were many are all washed away, Since Jesus came into my heart!
3
I’m possessed of a hope that is steadfast and sure, Since Jesus came into my heart! And no dark clouds of doubt now my pathway obscure, Since Jesus came into my heart!
4
There's a light in the valley of death now for me, Since Jesus came into my heart! And the gates of the City beyond I can see, Since Jesus came into my heart!
5
I shall go there to dwell in that city, I know, Since Jesus came into my heart! And I'm happy, so happy, as onward I go, Since Jesus came into my heart!
Redeemed, How I Love to Proclaim It!
Musical Introduction
1
Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it! Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; Redeemed through His infinite mercy, His child, and forever, I am.
Refrain
Redeemed, redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb; Redeemed, redeemed, His child, and forever, I am.
2
I think of my blessed Redeemer, I think of Him all the day long; I sing, for I cannot be silent; His love is the theme of my song.
3
I know I shall see in His beauty The King in whose law I delight, Who lovingly guardeth my footsteps, And giveth me songs in the night.
(ESV) Psalms 51: 1-19
Musical Introduction
1
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions.
2
Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin!
3
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me.
4
Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you may be justified in your words and blameless in your judgment.
5
Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me.
6
Behold, you delight in truth in the inward being, and you teach me wisdom in the secret heart.
7
Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.
8
Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones that you have broken rejoice.
9
Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.
10
Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.
11
Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me.
12
Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.
13
Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will return to you.
14
Deliver me from bloodguiltiness, O God, O God of my salvation, and my tongue will sing aloud of your righteousness.
15
O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise.
16
For you will not delight in sacrifice, or I would give it; you will not be pleased with a burnt offering.
17
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise.
18
Do good to Zion in your good pleasure; build up the walls of Jerusalem;
19
then will you delight in right sacrifices, in burnt offerings and whole burnt offerings; then bulls will be offered on your altar.

Open My Eyes, That I May See
Musical Introduction
1
Open my eyes that I may see glimpses of truth thou hast for me. Place in my hands the wonderful key that shall unclasp and set me free. Silently now I wait for thee, ready, my God, thy will to see. Open my eyes, illumine me, Spirit divine!
2
Open my ears that I may hear voices of truth thou sendest clear, and while the wave notes fall on my ear, ev’rything false will disappear. Silently now I wait for thee, ready, my God, thy will to see. Open my ears, illumine me, Spirit divine!
3
Open my mouth and let me bear gladly the warm truth ev’rywhere. Open my heart and let me prepare love with thy children thus to share. Silently now I wait for thee, ready, my God, thy will to see. Open my mouth, illumine me, Spirit divine!
(ESV) 1 Timothy 4: 1-16
Musical Introduction
1
Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons,
2
through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared,
3
who forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
4
For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
5
for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.
6
If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed.
7
Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness;
8
for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.
9
The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance.
10
For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.
11
Command and teach these things.
12
Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
13
Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, to teaching.
14
Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophecy when the council of elders laid their hands on you.
15
Practice these things, immerse yourself in them, so that all may see your progress.
16
Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers.
(ESV) 1 Timothy 5: 1-25
Musical Introduction
1
Do not rebuke an older man but encourage him as you would a father, younger men as brothers,
2
older women as mothers, younger women as sisters, in all purity.
3
Honor widows who are truly widows.
4
But if a widow has children or grandchildren, let them first learn to show godliness to their own household and to make some return to their parents, for this is pleasing in the sight of God.
5
She who is truly a widow, left all alone, has set her hope on God and continues in supplications and prayers night and day,
6
but she who is self-indulgent is dead even while she lives.
7
Command these things as well, so that they may be without reproach.
8
But if anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for members of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.
9
Let a widow be enrolled if she is not less than sixty years of age, having been the wife of one husband,
10
and having a reputation for good works: if she has brought up children, has shown hospitality, has washed the feet of the saints, has cared for the afflicted, and has devoted herself to every good work.
11
But refuse to enroll younger widows, for when their passions draw them away from Christ, they desire to marry
12
and so incur condemnation for having abandoned their former faith.
13
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
14
So I would have younger widows marry, bear children, manage their households, and give the adversary no occasion for slander.
15
For some have already strayed after Satan.
16
If any believing woman has relatives who are widows, let her care for them. Let the church not be burdened, so that it may care for those who are truly widows.
17
Let the elders who rule well be considered worthy of double honor, especially those who labor in preaching and teaching.
18
For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain,” and, “The laborer deserves his wages.”
19
Do not admit a charge against an elder except on the evidence of two or three witnesses.
20
As for those who persist in sin, rebuke them in the presence of all, so that the rest may stand in fear.
21
In the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of the elect angels I charge you to keep these rules without prejudging, doing nothing from partiality.
22
Do not be hasty in the laying on of hands, nor take part in the sins of others; keep yourself pure.
23
(No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for the sake of your stomach and your frequent ailments.)
24
The sins of some men are conspicuous, going before them to judgment, but the sins of others appear later.
25
So also good works are conspicuous, and even those that are not cannot remain hidden.
Our Father
Musical Introduction
The Lord's Prayer. Our Father, which 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 debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For thou is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, Forever.
