COME TO THE TABLE!

Invitation to the Table
Prayers for Others & Ourselves
Affirmation of our Faith – “How Firm a Foundation”

How firm a foundation ye saints of the Lord
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word
What more can He say than to you He hath said
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled

Fear not I am with thee O be not dismayed
For I am thy God I will still give thee aid
I’ll strengthen thee help thee
And cause thee to stand
Upheld by My righteous omnipotent hand

The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose
I will not, I will not desert to its foes
That soul though all hell should endeavor to shake
I’ll never no never no never forsake
