PRAYER OF ADORATION AND INVOCATION
*THE LORD'S PRAYER
Our Father, who 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 evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and
the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
*GLORIA PATRI (#572)
THE LAW OF GOD – The Ninth
Commandment
CONFESSION OF SIN
[Based upon Romans 3]
Our great and
glorious God, You who know and judge the secrets of every human
heart; We do acknowledge and confess that we have followed our father
Adam in revolting against your commandments. We have turned from
your ways and from your blessed Presence, and have reaped the misery
of turning away from You, the very Author of life. None of us is
righteous, no not one; None of us has understanding, none of us seeks
God; Our throats are opened graves; we use our tongues to deceive;
Our mouths are full of cursing and bitterness; Our feet are swift to
shed blood; ruin and misery are in our paths, and the way of peace we
have not known; There is no fear of God before our eyes. We appeal
to you, through your great mercy made manifest in Jesus Christ Your
obedient Son, that you would forgive our sins for His sake; That you
would make many righteous through His one act of obedience; That
where our sin has increased, Your grace would abound. Just as Christ
was raised from the dead by your glory, so also may we walk in
newness of life. Amen.
DECLARATION OF PARDON
[Isaiah 55:7] Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man
his thoughts;let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion
on him,and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

The Nicene Creed
We believe in
one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, of all
things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord
Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of his Father
before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God,
begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom
all things were made; who for us and for our salvation came down from
heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and
was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; he
suffered and was buried; and the third day he rose again according to
the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right
hand of the Father; and he shall come again with glory to judge both
the living and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.
And we believe
in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and giver of life, who proceeds from the
Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is
worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets; and we believe in
one holy catholic and apostolic church; we acknowledge one baptism
for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the
dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen.
