“But you are my witnesses, O Israel!” says the Lord.  “You are my servant.  You have been chosen to know me, believe in me, and understand that I alone am God.  There is no other God – there never has been, and there never will be.  I, yes, I am the Lord, and there is no other Savior…You are witnesses that I am the only God.”

Isaiah 43:10-12  (New Living Translation)

                                                             Come, We That Love the Lord                                             Verses 1,2,4

Come, we that love the Lord, and let our joys be known;

Join in a song with sweet accord, and thus surround the throne.

 

Let those refuse to sing who never knew our God;

But children of the heavenly King may speak their joys abroad.

 

Then let our songs abound, and every tear be dry;

We’re marching through Emmanuel’s ground, to fairer worlds on high.

The Apostles’ Creed, Traditional Version

I believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth;

And in Jesus Christ his only Son our Lord:

Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary,

Suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead and buried;

The third day he rose from the dead; he ascended into heaven,

And sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

From thence he shall come to judge the quick 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.

*   Gloria Patri............................................................................................................. UMH #71

Glory Be to the Father

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost;

As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,

World without end.  Amen.  Amen.
