When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain't just putting on the ritz
(Our God is an awesome God)
There's thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
(Our God is an awesome God)
And the Lord wasn't joking when
He kicked 'em out of Eden
It wasn't for no reason that He
she'd His blood
His return is very close and so
you better be believing that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

And when the sky was starless
In the void of the night
(Our God is an awesome God)
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
(Our God is an awesome God)
The judgement and wrath He
poured out on Sodom
The mercy and grace He gave
us at the cross
I hope that we have not too
quickly forgotten that
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God (God)
He reigns (He reigns...) from heaven above
With wisdom, power, and love
Our God is an awesome God

Our God is an awesome God (Our God is an awesome God)
He reigns from heaven above (He reigns from heaven above)
With wisdom, power, and love (With wisdom, power, and love)
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God
Our God is an awesome God

They rush on the city,
they run on the wall
Great is the army
that carries out His word

They rush on the city,
they run on the wall
Great is the army
that carries out His word

The Lord utters His voice
before His army
The Lord utters His voice
before His army

Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion
Sound the alarm in My Holy mountain!
Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion sound the alarm!

Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion
sound the alarm in my Holy mountain!
Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion Sound the alarm!

Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion
Sound the alarm in my Holy mountain!
Blow the trumpet in Zion, Zion Sound the alarm!

Sound the alarm! Sound the alarm!

The Opening
Opening Sentence

The hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for such the Father seeks to worship him. John 4:23

Coverdale
Part I Confitemini Domino

1Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good, *
and his mercy endures for ever.

2Let all those whom the LORD has redeemed proclaim *
that he redeemed them from the hand of the foe.

3He gathered them out of the lands; *
from the east and from the west,
from the north and from the south.

4Some wandered in desert wastes; *
they found no way to a city where they might dwell.

5They were hungry and thirsty; *
their spirits languished within them.

6Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, *
and he delivered them from their distress.

7He put their feet on a straight path *
to go to a city where they might dwell.

8Let them give thanks to the LORD for his mercy *
and the wonders he does for his children.

9For he satisfies the thirsty *
and fills the hungry with good things.

10Some sat in darkness and deep gloom, *
bound fast in misery and iron;

11Because they rebelled against the words of God *
and despised the counsel of the Most High.

12So he humbled their spirits with hard labor; *
they stumbled, and there was none to help.

13Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, *
and he delivered them from their distress.

14He led them out of darkness and deep gloom *
and broke their bonds asunder.

15Let them give thanks to the LORD for his mercy *
and the wonders he does for his children.

16For he shatters the doors of bronze *
and breaks in two the iron bars.

17Some were fools and took to rebellious ways; *
they were afflicted because of their sins.

18They abhorred all manner of food *
and drew near to death's door.

19Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, *
and he delivered them from their distress.

20He sent forth his word and healed them *
and saved them from the grave.

21Let them give thanks to the LORD for his mercy *
and the wonders he does for his children.

22Let them offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving *
and tell of his acts with shouts of joy.

23Some went down to the sea in ships *
and plied their trade in deep waters;

24They beheld the works of the LORD *
and his wonders in the deep.

25Then he spoke, and a stormy wind arose, *
which tossed high the waves of the sea.

26They mounted up to the heavens and fell back to the depths; *
their hearts melted because of their peril.

27They reeled and staggered like drunkards *
and were at their wits' end.

28Then they cried to the LORD in their trouble, *
and he delivered them from their distress.

29He stilled the storm to a whisper *
and quieted the waves of the sea.

30Then were they glad because of the calm, *
and he brought them to the harbor they were bound for.

31Let them give thanks to the LORD for his mercy *
and the wonders he does for his children.

32Let them exalt him in the congregation of the people *
and praise him in the council of the elders.

For Clergy and People
Almighty and everlasting God, from whom cometh every good and perfect gift: Send down upon our bishops, and other clergy, and upon the congregations committed to their charge, the healthful Spirit of thy grace; and, that they may truly please thee, pour upon them the continual dew of thy blessing.

For the Unity of the Church
O God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, our only Savior, the Prince of Peace: Give us grace seriously to lay to heart the great dangers we are in by our unhappy divisions; take away all hatred and prejudice, and whatever else may hinder us from godly union and concord; that, as there is but one Body and one Spirit, one hope of our calling, one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism, one God and Father of us all, so we may be all of one heart and of one soul, united in one holy bond of truth and peace, of faith and charity, and may with one mind and one mouth glorify you; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

For Monastic Orders and Vocations
O Lord Jesus Christ, you became poor for our sake, that we might be made rich through your poverty: Guide and sanctify, we pray, those whom you call to follow you under the vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, that by their prayer and service they may enrich your Church, and by their life and worship may glorify your Name; for you reign with the Father and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.

Hymn: Each step I take

Each step I take my Savior goes before me,
And with His loving hand He leads the way.
And with each breath I whisper, I adore Thee;
O what joy to walk with Him each day.
Each step I take, I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground He ever leads me on.
Until someday the last step will be taken.
Each step I take just leads me closer Home.

At times I feel my faith begin to waver,
When up ahead I see a chasm wide.
It's then I turn and look up to my Savior,
I am strong when He is by my side.
Each step I take, I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground He ever leads me on.
Until someday the last step will be taken.
Each step I take just leads me closer Home.

I trust in God, no matter come what may,
For life eternal is in His hand,
He holds the key that opens up the way.
That will lead me to the promised land.
Each step I take, I know that He will guide me;
To higher ground He ever leads me on.
Until someday the last step will be taken.
Each step I take just leads me closer Home.

A Prayer of Self-Dedication

Almighty and eternal God, so draw our hearts to you, so guide our minds, so fill our imaginations, so control our wills, that we may be wholly yours, utterly dedicated unto you; and then use us, we pray you, as you will, and always to your glory and the welfare of your people; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.

General Thanksgiving
Almighty God, Father of all mercies, we your unworthy servants give you humble thanks for all your goodness and loving-kindness to us and to all whom you have made. We bless you for our creation, preservation, and all the blessings of this life; but above all for your immeasurable love in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ; for the means of grace, and for the hope of glory. And, we pray, give us such an awareness of your mercies, that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise, not only with our lips, but in our lives, by giving up our selves to your service, and by walking before you in holiness and righteousness all our days; through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom, with you and the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory throughout all ages. Amen.

A Prayer of St. Chrysostom
Almighty God, you have given us grace at this time with one accord to make our common supplication to you; and you have promised through your well-beloved Son that when two or three are gathered together in his Name you will be in the midst of them: Fulfill now, O Lord, our desires and petitions as may be best for us; granting us in this world knowledge of your truth, and in the age to come life everlasting. Amen.

The Ending

Let us bless the Lord.

Thanks be to God.

The World Is Destroyed by Water
Genesis 6

1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

3 And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

5 And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.

8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof;with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven;and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.
 
Genesis Chapter 7

The Great Flood
Genesis 7

1 And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.

2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts thatare not clean by two, the male and his female.

3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.

4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.

5 And Noah did according unto all that the LORD commanded him.

6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.

7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.

8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,

9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.

11 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.

12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.

13 In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;

14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.

15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.

16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God had commanded him: and the LORD shut him in.

17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.

18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.

19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.

20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.

21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man:

22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.

23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.

24 And the waters prevailed upon the earth an hundred and fifty days.
 
Evening Prayer on Friday
Friday, 2 October 2015

Preparation
O God, make speed to save us.
AllO Lord, make haste to help us.

One or more of the following is said or sung:
a prayer of thanksgiving (page 110),
a suitable hymn,
or A Song of Entreaty

1Hear my prayer, O Lord,
and in your faithfulness give ear to my supplications; •
answer me in your righteousness.

2Enter not into judgement with your servant, •
for in your sight shall no one living be justified.

3My spirit faints within me; •
my heart within me is desolate.

4I stretch out my hands to you; •
my soul gasps for you like a thirsty land.

5O Lord, make haste to answer me; my spirit fails me; •
hide not your face from me
lest I be like those who go down to the Pit.

6Let me hear of your loving-kindness in the morning,
for in you I put my trust; •
show me the way I should walk in,
for I lift up my soul to you.

7Teach me to do what pleases you, for you are my God; •
let your kindly spirit lead me on a level path.

8Revive me, O Lord, for your name’s sake; •
for your righteousness’ sake, bring me out of trouble.

Psalm 143.1, 2, 4, 6-8, 10, 11

AllGlory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and shall be for ever. Amen.
 
This opening prayer may be said

That this evening may be holy, good and peaceful,
let us pray with one heart and mind.

Silence is kept.

As our evening prayer rises before you, O God,
so may your mercy come down upon us
to cleanse our hearts
and set us free to sing your praise
now and for ever.

Amen.
 
Psalm 69
Refrain:Hide not your face from your servant, O Lord.

1Save me, O God, •
for the waters have come up, even to my neck.

2I sink in deep mire where there is no foothold; •
I have come into deep waters and the flood sweeps over me.

3I have grown weary with crying; my throat is raw; •
my eyes have failed from looking so long for my God. R

4Those who hate me without any cause •
are more than the hairs of my head;

5Those who would destroy me are mighty; •
my enemies accuse me falsely:
must I now give back what I never stole?

6O God, you know my foolishness, •
and my faults are not hidden from you.

7Let not those who hope in you
be put to shame through me, Lord God of hosts; •
let not those who seek you be disgraced because of me,
O God of Israel. R

8For your sake have I suffered reproach; •
shame has covered my face.

9I have become a stranger to my kindred, •
an alien to my mother’s children.

10Zeal for your house has eaten me up; •
the scorn of those who scorn you has fallen upon me. R

11I humbled myself with fasting, •
but that was turned to my reproach.

12I put on sackcloth also •
and became a byword among them.

13Those who sit at the gate murmur against me, •
and the drunkards make songs about me. R

14But as for me, I make my prayer to you, O Lord; •
at an acceptable time, O God.

15Answer me, O God, in the abundance of your mercy •
and with your sure salvation.

16Draw me out of the mire, that I sink not; •
let me be rescued from those who hate me
and out of the deep waters. R

17Let not the water flood drown me,
neither the deep swallow me up; •
let not the Pit shut its mouth upon me.

18Answer me, Lord, for your loving-kindness is good; •
turn to me in the multitude of your mercies.

19Hide not your face from your servant; •
be swift to answer me, for I am in trouble. R

20Draw near to my soul and redeem me; •
deliver me because of my enemies.

21You know my reproach, my shame and my dishonour; •
my adversaries are all in your sight.

22Reproach has broken my heart; I am full of heaviness. •
I looked for some to have pity, but there was no one,
neither found I any to comfort me.

23They gave me gall to eat, •
and when I was thirsty, they gave me vinegar to drink. R

24Let the table before them be a trap •
and their sacred feasts a snare.

25Let their eyes be darkened, that they cannot see, •
and give them continual trembling in their loins.

26Pour out your indignation upon them, •
and let the heat of your anger overtake them.

27Let their camp be desolate, •
and let there be no one to dwell in their tents. R

28For they persecute the one whom you have stricken, •
and increase the sorrows of him whom you have pierced.

29Lay to their charge guilt upon guilt, •
and let them not receive your vindication.

30Let them be wiped out of the book of the living •
and not be written among the righteous. R

31As for me, I am poor and in misery; •
your saving help, O God, will lift me up.

32I will praise the name of God with a song; •
I will proclaim his greatness with thanksgiving.

33This will please the Lord more than an offering of oxen, •
more than bulls with horns and hooves.

34The humble shall see and be glad; •
you who seek God, your heart shall live. R

35For the Lord listens to the needy, •
and his own who are imprisoned he does not despise.

36Let the heavens and the earth praise him, •
the seas and all that moves in them;

37For God will save Zion and rebuild the cities of Judah; •
they shall live there and have it in possession.

38The children of his servants shall inherit it •
and they that love his name shall dwell therein.

Refrain:Hide not your face from your servant, O Lord.



Thirsting on the cross,
your Son shared the reproach of the oppressed
and carried the sins of all;
in him, O God, may the despairing find you,
the afflicted gain life
and the whole creation know its true king,
Jesus Christ our Lord.



Each psalm or group of psalms may end with

Glory to the Father and to the Son
and to the Holy Spirit;
as it was in the beginning is now
and shall be for ever. Amen.
 
2 Kings 2.1-18

Now when the Lord was about to take Elijah up to heaven by a whirlwind, Elijah and Elisha were on their way from Gilgal. Elijah said to Elisha, ‘Stay here; for the Lord has sent me as far as Bethel.’ But Elisha said, ‘As the Lord lives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.’ So they went down to Bethel. The company of prophets who were in Bethel came out to Elisha, and said to him, ‘Do you know that today the Lord will take your master away from you?’ And he said, ‘Yes, I know; keep silent.’

Elijah said to him, ‘Elisha, stay here; for the Lord has sent me to Jericho.’ But he said, ‘As the Lordlives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.’ So they came to Jericho. The company of prophetswho were at Jericho drew near to Elisha, and said to him, ‘Do you know that today the Lord will take your master away from you?’ And he answered, ‘Yes, I know; be silent.’

Then Elijah said to him, ‘Stay here; for the Lord has sent me to the Jordan.’ But he said, ‘As the Lordlives, and as you yourself live, I will not leave you.’ So the two of them went on. Fifty men of the company of prophets also went, and stood at some distance from them, as they both were standing by the Jordan. Then Elijah took his mantle and rolled it up, and struck the water; the water was parted to the one side and to the other, until the two of them crossed on dry ground.

When they had crossed, Elijah said to Elisha, ‘Tell me what I may do for you, before I am taken from you.’ Elisha said, ‘Please let me inherit a double share of your spirit.’ He responded, ‘You have asked a hard thing; yet, if you see me as I am being taken from you, it will be granted you; if not, it will not.’As they continued walking and talking, a chariot of fire and horses of fire separated the two of them, and Elijah ascended in a whirlwind into heaven. Elisha kept watching and crying out, ‘Father, father! The chariots of Israel and its horsemen!’ But when he could no longer see him, he grasped his own clothes and tore them in two pieces.

He picked up the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and went back and stood on the bank of the Jordan. He took the mantle of Elijah that had fallen from him, and struck the water, saying, ‘Where is the Lord, the God of Elijah?’ When he had struck the water, the water was parted to the one side and to the other, and Elisha went over.

When the company of prophets who were at Jericho saw him at a distance, they declared, ‘The spirit of Elijah rests on Elisha.’ They came to meet him and bowed to the ground before him. They said to him, ‘See now, we have fifty strong men among your servants; please let them go and seek your master; it may be that the spirit of the Lord has caught him up and thrown him down on some mountain or into some valley.’ He responded, ‘No, do not send them.’ But when they urged him until he was ashamed, he said, ‘Send them.’ So they sent fifty men who searched for three days but did not find him. When they came back to him (he had remained at Jericho), he said to them, ‘Did I not say to you, Do not go?’
 


I Pray We'll Be Ready Lyrics
Verse (Leader)
I pray we’ll all be ready (2 times)
I pray we’ll all be ready for his return
I pray that we’ll get our business straight
So we can all meet at the gate
I pray we’ll all be ready for his return

Two men walking by the road
One of them had a heart pure as gold
The sky was split and the pure in heart raptured away
But one of the other one left behind who did not purge
his heart in time
Cried to the Lord but for him it is too late
I pray that we’ll all be ready

Chorus (Choir repeats while Leader Ad lib)
I pray we’ll all be ready (2 times)
I pray we’ll all be ready for his return

Leader
I pray that we’ll get our business straight
So we can all meet
Meet at the gate
I pray we’ll all be ready for his return

Verse (Leader)
Man and wife in their bed
One of them by the spirit lead
The rapture came and took that one above
The other one rose on the next day to found their love
one raptured away
Oh what a way to lose the one you love
I pray we’ll all be ready

Choir repeats Chorus with Leader as Leader ad lib)

Leader (ad lib)
Everyone in the room tonight, I pray
I pray that we’ll all
For his return
I pray that we’ll get our business straight
So we can all meet at the gate, I

Repeat chorus (moving up)

Leader ad libs
Oh, oh, I pray
I pray that we’ll all, be ready
I pray that we’ll all be
For his return
I pray that we’ll give our hearts a search
So that we won’t be playing church
I pray we’ll all
I want to be ready for his return

Verse (Leader)
Momma and children in the mall
Their momma heard the Master’s call
She was swept into the by and by
It’s hard to rely on your momma’s prayer
When your momma is no longer there
Learn how to pray, learn how to pray
While you still have time
Yeah…..

Leader (ad lib)
Oh, I pray
Everyone in the room tonight
I pray
How many want to be ready when he returns
I pray we’ll get down on our knees
So the Lord can wash us clean
I pray we’ll all be ready for his return

Leader (ad lib)
Anybody want to be ready (2 times)
Hallelujah

No man knows the day, nor the hour (2 times)

You must be, you gotta be
You gotta be ready, you gotta be ready

Do you want it, the Holy Ghost power.
I need it, the Holy Ghost power.
Go back to the altar,
Down on your knees,
Stay there 'til you get the Holy Ghost power.

When the saints, they use to pray,
Down at the altar,
Where they sought the Lord,
And they tarry for the Holy Ghost.

You’ve always been there for me
You’ve even open doors, I could not see,
You made a way for me, when I thought there was no way,
You proved your love for me when you died, to set me free,
So now I owe Him me

If I had ten thousand tongues
I ‘d reverence you dear Lord with every one
You picked me up, when I was down
Placed my feet on solid ground,
I lift my voice and cry,
Holy unto your name - Oh Lord

Special:
You are my God; I will worship you and bless your name,
Glory and honor be onto your precious name

You are my God, None compares to you, I bless your name
Glory and honor be onto your precious name

You are my God; I will worship you and bless your name
Glory and honor be unto your precious name

You are my God; None compares to you, I bless your name
Glory and honor be unto your precious name

Glory, Glory, Glory be unto the King of Kings
Glory, Glory, Glory and honor be unto your precious name ...3xce
Glory, Glory, Glory and honor be unto your precious name
Glory, Glory, Glory and honor be unto your precious name
