“Fairest Lord Jesus”
Fairest Lord Jesus; Ruler of all nature, You are of God,
to earth come down; You will I cherish; You will honor,
You’re my soul’s glory, joy, and crown.
Fair are the meadows; Fairer still the woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring; Jesus is fairer;
Jesus is purer, who makes the woeful heart to sing.
Beautiful Savior! Lord of the nations! Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, Praise adoration, now and
for-ever-more be Thine. Amen.
++Invocation (with “The Lord’s Prayer”)
++Gloria Patri
THE CONSIDERATION OF OUR LIVES
Responsive Reading 1 Corinthians 15: 50 – 58 Leader
L: I tell you this, brethren: flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom
of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.
P: Lo! I tell you a mystery, we shall not all sleep, but we shall all be
changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.
L: For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable,
and we shall be changed.
P: For this perishable nature must put on the imperishable, and this
mortal nature must put on immortality.
L: When the perishable puts on imperishable, and the mortal puts on
immortality, then shall come to pass that is written: Death is
swallowed upon in victory.
P: O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
L: The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is law.
P: But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord
All: Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always
abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord you
labor is not in vain.

My Jesus, I loved Thee, I know Thou art mine- -For Thee all the
follies of sin I resign, My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou:
If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.
I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me, And purchased
my pardon on Calvary’s tree; I love Thee for wearing the thorns
on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, ‘tis now.
