Opening Prayer: Almighty God, I accept Your freeing power in my life. Help me to live free from the things that I allow to keep me captive. Amen

Read: Ephesians 2:1-10

Prayer: for the church, for others, and for myself

Hymn: Jesus, I Come
Out of my bondage, sorrow, and night,
Jesus, I come; Jesus I come.
Into Thy freedom, gladness, and light,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of my sickness into Thy health,
Out of my want and into Thy wealth,
Out of my sin and into Thyself,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

Out of my shameful failure and loss,
Jesus I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the glorious gain of Thy cross,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of earth’s sorrows into Thy balm,
Out of life’s storms and into Thy calm,
Out of distress to jubilant psalm,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

Out of the fear and dread of the tomb,
Jesus, I come; Jesus, I come.
Into the joy and light of Thy home,
Jesus, I come to Thee.
Out of the depths of ruin untold,
Into the peace of Thy sheltering fold,
Ever Thy glorious face to behold,
Jesus, I come to Thee.

Closing Prayer: May the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable to You, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
