 *CALL TO WORSHIP: Job 19:25-27
For I know that my Redeemer lives, and at the last he will stand upon the
earth. And after my skin has been thus destroyed, yet in my flesh I shall see
God, whom I shall see for myself, and my eyes shall behold, and not
another. My heart faints within me!

into temptation. But deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the

THE LAW OF GOD – The Fifth Commandment

CONFESSION OF SIN [Based upon The Valley of Vision]
Eternal Father, You are good beyond all thought, but we are vile, wretched,
miserable, blind; Our lips are ready to confess, but our hearts are slow to
feel and our ways reluctant to amend. We bring our souls to you. Break
them, wound them, bend them, mold them. Unmask to us sin's deformity,
that we may hate it, abhor it, flee from it. Our abilities have been weapons
of revolt against you; as rebels we have misused our strength, and served
the foul adversary of your kingdom. Give us grace to bewail our senseless
folly; Grant us to know that the way of transgression is hard; that evil paths
are wretched paths; that to depart from you is to lose all good. We have
seen the purity and beauty of your perfect law, the happiness of those in
whose heart it reigns, the calm dignity of the walk to which it calls; yet daily
we violate and condemn its precepts. All these sins we mourn, lament, and
for them cry, "Pardon." Work in us more profound and abiding repentance;
Give us the fullness of a godly grief which is ever powerful, and ever
confident; Grant that our repentance will enable us to see more clearly the
brightness and glory of the cross of Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray.
Amen.

DECLARATION OF PARDON [Psalm 103:12]
As far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions
from us.

THE LAW OF GOD – The Fourth Commandment

CONFESSION OF SIN [Adapted from Matthew Henry]
We have sinned against you, O Lord, our Maker, our Defender, and our
Redeemer. Our natures are corrupt and sinful; prone to fall away from you,
sluggish to do good and swift to do evil. Vain thoughts have come upon us
and found lodging within us, defiling and disquieting our minds, and keeping
out good thoughts. We have burdened ourselves with that care which you
have commanded us to cast upon you. We have failed in our duties one to
another, and have provoked one another as much to folly and anger as to
love and good works. We have been cold in our love to you, weak in our
desires toward you, unsteady in our walking with you, and are even at this
time poorly prepared to serve you. We beseech you--Forgive all our sins,
for Christ’s sake, and be at peace with us in Him Who died to make peace
and lives to make intercession for us. Amen.

DECLARATION OF PARDON [Ezekiel 36:27]
And I will put my Spirit within you, and cause you to walk in my statutes and

THE LAW OF GOD – The Second Commandment

CONFESSION OF SIN [Based upon Romans 1 and Romans 5]

Our great and everlasting God, Whose eternal power and divine nature have

been seen through the things You have made; we acknowledge that we are

without excuse. For although we have known You, we have not honored

you as God nor given you thanks, but we have become futile in our thinking;

and our senseless minds have been darkened. Claiming to be wise, we have

become fools. We have been filled with every kind of wickedness, evil,

covetousness, and malice. Full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and

craftiness, we are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, haughty,

boastful, inventors of evil, rebellious toward parents, foolish, faithless,

heartless, ruthless. Yet we do also heartily acknowledge, that when we

were weak, at the right time, Christ died for the ungodly. We most joyfully

confess that You have proven your love for us in that while we were yet

sinners, Christ died for us. Forgive our sins, we pray, through Him who was

handed over to death for our trespasses and was raised for our justification.

Amen.

CONFESSION OF SIN [Adapted from CRC Book of Praise]

O eternal God and merciful Father, we humble ourselves before your great

majesty, against which we have frequently and grievously sinned. We

acknowledge that we deserve nothing less than eternal death, that we are

unclean before you and children of wrath. We continually transgress your

commandments, failing to do what you have commanded, and doing that

which you have expressly forbidden. We acknowledge our waywardness,

and are heartily sorry for all our sins. We are not worthy to be called your

children, nor to lift up our eyes heavenward to you in prayer. Nevertheless,

O Lord God and gracious Father, we know that your mercy toward those

who turn to you is infinite; and so we take courage to call upon you, trusting

in our Mediator Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the

world. Forgive all our sins for Christ’s sake. Cover us with his innocence and

righteousness, for the glory of your name. Deliver our understanding from

all blindness, and our hearts from all willfulness and rebellion, we pray

through Jesus Christ, our Redeemer. Amen.
