Liturgy for wherever you are

Pentecost Sunday

June 5, 2022

welcome to WORSHIP

Liturgy is an ancient word for worship that is usually translated as “the work of the people.” You’ll hear the voices of our pastoral staff and our community each week, and we are so grateful that this is the work we get to do together. We prayerfully plan our worship services trusting that the Spirit will use each element to shape us and our desires as we pursue the path of Christ.

HYMN sTUDies

We are in our new preaching series on hymns that have been a part of our faith tradition over the years and formed us theologically as we have sung them in worship. Each week you’ll find the lyrics to the hymn being highlighted here for continued reflection.

Breathe on me, Breath of God

Edwin Hatch

Breathe on me, Breath of God
Fill me with life anew
That I may love what Thou dost love
And do what Thou wouldst do

Breathe on me, Breath of God
Until my heart is pure
Until with Thee I will Thy will
To do and to endure

Breathe on me, Breath of God
Till I am wholly Thine
Until this earthly part of me
Glows with Thy fire divine

Breathe on me, Breath of God
So shall I never die
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity

You can give here! ❤️

Joy

Pat Barrett | Tony Brown

There's beauty in my brokenness
I've got true love instead of pain
There's freedom though You've captured me
I've got joy instead of mourning

You give me joy down deep in my soul
Down deep in my soul
Down deep in my soul

I've never been so free
Caught in Your love for me
Never been more secure
Knowing Your heart, Lord

You’ve never seen me like
You’ve seen me filled with joy
You’ve never seen me like
You’ve seen me filled with joy
You’ve never seen me like
You’ve seen me filled with joy
Joy forevermore

You’ve never known me like
You’ve known me filled with joy
You’ve never known me like
You’ve known me filled with joy
You’ve never known me like
You’ve known me filled with joy
Joy forevermore

Great are You, Lord

David Leonard | Jason Ingram | Leslie Jordan

You give life You are love
You bring light to the darkness
You give hope You restore ev'ry heart that is broken
Great are You Lord

It's Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise
We pour out our praise
It's Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only

And all the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry these bones will sing
Great are You Lord

Breathe

Marie Barnett

This is the air I breathe
This is the air I breathe
Your holy presence living in me
This is my daily bread
This is my daily bread
Your very word spoken to me

And I, I'm desperate for You
And I, I'm lost without You

Doxology

Thomas Ken

Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise God, all creatures here below;
Praise God above, ye heav'nly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.

What a wonderful group of friends we had for this week’s service! Chip welcomed and invited us into a communal practice of gratitude. Leslie led us in our call to worship. John Jay invited us to witness and celebrate the dedication of the Dorman’s daughter. Chip led us in communal prayer. Asher read scripture. John Jay provided us with a teaching to feed our spirits and returned at the end to offer up the benediction. Lindsay led us in a time of communion. Angel invited us into a time of generosity through our offering. Paul provided the offertory. Our other musicians this morning were Leslie, Astyn, Jason C., Rick, Brede, and the FBCP Choir. John Jay and Angel reminded us of the different ways we are invited to participate in communal life together. Leslie oversaw the production while Harriet worked her technical magic to mix this special collaborative worship experience.
