Hymn       Take Time To Be Holy #672VU

Scripture Lessons:       I Samuel 2:1-10

                                     Psalm 127 p. 851VU

                                     Hebrews 10:11-14, 19-25

Message

Prayer:  Saviour, teach me, day by day, love’s sweet lesson— to obey;

Sweeter lesson cannot be, loving God who first loved me. 

With a child’s glad heart of love at thy bidding may I move, 

Prompt to serve and follow thee, loving God who first loved me. 

Teach me thus thy steps to trace, strong to follow in thy grace, 

Learning how to love from thee, loving God who first loved me. 

Love in loving finds employ, in obedience all her joy; 

Ever knew that joy will be, loving God who first loved me. 

Thus May I rejoice to show that I feel the love I owe; 

Singing, till thy face I see, of the one who first loved me.

( hymn by Jane Eliza Leeson, those who sing pray twice!)
