Liturgy for wherever you are
Eighteenth Sunday of Pentecost | Call of Abraham
Genesis 12:1-9 | October 1st, 2023
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. To listen to previous liturgies, you can visit our Soundcloud page below to browse the archives.

He Is Faithful
Bryan Torwalt
I have heard a sound coming on the wind
Changing hearts and minds healing brokenness
I feel a generation breaking through despair
I hear a generation full of faith declare
And our song it will be
Out of the darkness we will rise and sing
He is faithful He is glorious
And He is Jesus and all my hope is in Him
He is freedom He is healing right now
He is hope and joy love and peace and life
I have seen a light like the break of dawn
Showing us the path, making all things new
I see a generation with resurrection life
We are a generation filled with the power of Christ
He has paid the highest price
He has proven His great love for us
We will praise Him with our lives
And proclaim our love for Him
Nothing but the Blood
Robert Lowry
What can wash away my sin
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
O precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow
No other fount I know
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my pardon this I see
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
For my cleansing this my plea
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Nothing can for sin atone
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Naught of good that I have done
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
This is all my hope and peace
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
This is all my righteousness
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
Open Space | Bridge + Chorus
Kirby Kaple | Rob Kaple
My heart is an open space
For You to come and have Your way
I'm open I'm open
Do whatever You want to do
Say whatever You want to say
And move however You want to move
And change whatever You want to change
Take My Life and Let It Be
Frances Ridley Havergal | Henri Abraham Cesar Malan
Take my life and let it be
Consecrated Lord to Thee
Take my moments and my days
Let them flow in ceaseless praise
Take my hands and let them move
At the impulse of Thy love
Take my feet and let them be
Swift and beautiful for Thee
Take my will and make it Thine
It shall be no longer mine
Take my heart it is Thine own
It shall be Thy royal throne
Take my love my Lord I pour
At Thy feet its treasure store
Take myself and I will be
Ever only all for Thee
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! John Jay welcomed us, and he and Jessica H. invited us into a communal practice of gratitude. Tim called us into worship. Chip led us in communal prayer and invited us into communion. Bruno read scripture. John Jay provided us with a teaching and offered up the benediction. Lindsay invited us into a time of generosity through our offering. Paul provided the offertory. Our other musicians this morning were Leslie, Warren, Ainsley, Judah, Rick, Scott and the FBCP Choir. Lindsay and Bailey reminded us of the different ways we are invited to participate in communal life together. Leslie oversaw the production while Kenny worked his technical magic to mix this special collaborative worship experience.
Much love from your church family at FBC Pasadena.
