CALL TO WORSHIP:
This is the day that the Lord has made!
     We will rejoice and be glad in it!
The Lord is our strength and our song:
He has become our victory!
     You are our God, and we will praise You;
     You are our God, and we will exalt You.
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good!

*PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
 Lord, though You should guide us, we inform ourselves; though You should rule us, we control ourselves; though You should fulfill us, we console ourselves.  We think Your truth too high, Your will too hard, Your power too remote, Your love too free.  But they are not!  And without them, we are of all people most miserable.  Now heal our confused minds with Your word, heal our divided wills with Your law, heal our troubled consciences with Your love, heal our anxious hearts with Your presence, all for the sake of Your Son, who loved us and gave Himself for us.  Amen.

CALL TO WORSHIP:

Blessing and honor and glory and power be to the One     
seated on the throne and to the Lamb forever and ever!

*Hymn:  Jesus Christ is Risen Today”                             # 232
 
*PRAYER OF CONFESSION:
Almighty Father, You are the source of every good and perfect gift.  We praise Your name for the greatest and most perfect gift:
Your son, our Lord Jesus Christ.  But in lifting Him up, we humble ourselves before You.  We confess to You, not only our sins of omission in failing to do what we know is right, but also our sins of commission in doing what You forbid.  O Lord, we are weak and feeble, slow to confess our sins and prone to wander from the path of righteousness, do not deal with us as our sins deserve but wash us clean in the blood of the Lamb and empower us by Your Spirit to live to honor and serve our Savior King.  We praise You that He was born like us that we might become like Him.  In Jesus Name we pray.  AMEN.

He is Risen!

Christ is Risen!
    Christ is Risen indeed!
He was pierced for our transgressions.

The punishment that brought us peace was upon Him.
    And by His wounds---by His stripes---we are healed.
He died for the sins of each one of us here.
    But He no longer is in the grave; He has risen from
    the dead!
Christ the Lord is Risen today! Up from the grave He Arose! He
Is Risen!
    Christ Arose!     Hallelujah!     He is Risen indeed!

Prayer:
Lord we lift our hearts to you.
As the dawn breaks, may we carry the unity we share into every moment knowing that we are one with the risen Christ.
Lord, we lift our eyes to you. As the sunrises, may this moment stay with us, reminding us to look for the beautiful colors of promise in your word.
Lord, we lift our prayers to you. As the dew air falls, may we breathe this morning in and know that like the earth, you sustain us, keep us and work within us always.
​And so, we lift our voices to you. We celebrate the greatest day in history, when Jesus rose from death, defeated darkness and bathed the world in stunning resurrection light. May we ever live to praise you!
Amen.
