Corporate Prayer of Confession:
All: Almighty and merciful God, Your grace is far beyond our understanding. Yet we repeatedly stray from Your path. Our hearts are filled with pride, greed, and the desire to put ourselves first. We have sinned against You often in thought, word, and deed by what we have done and what we have left undone. Have mercy upon us, O God. Forgive us our sins. Empower us to live in Your light and to walk in Your ways to the honor of Your holy Name. Through Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
Assurance of Pardon: John 10:14-15, 28-29

Grace Greater Than Our Sin—Julia Johnson (1849-1919) was the daughter of a Presbyterian minister, and authored many books on Christian missions, along with many hymns. In 1910, she wrote this hymn as a commentary on Romans 5, particularly 5:20b, which says: “But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound”.

Our Father, who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
