Though the nations rage, kingdoms rise and fall
There is still one King reigning over all
So I will not fear, for this truth remains
That my God is the Ancient of Days.
None above Him, none before Him
All of time in His hands
For His throne, it shall remain and ever stand
All the power, all the glory
I will trust in His name
For my God is the Ancient of Days.
Though the dread of night overwhelms my soul
He is here with me, I am not alone
Oh, His love is sure, and He knows my name
For my God is the Ancient of Days.
Though I may not see what the future brings
I will watch and wait for the Saviour King
Then my joy complete, standing face to face
In the presence of the Ancient of Days.

Call to worship Psalm 136 (p.626)
Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my Father, MP 200
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.
Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided –
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!
Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!
Prayer of approach to God
Together Time
MP 225 He’s got the whole world
He's got the whole world in His hands, MP 225
He's got the whole wide world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got the tiny little baby in His hands,
He's got the tiny little baby in His hands,
He's got the tiny little baby in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He’s got our friends in Eastern Europe in His hands,
He’s got our friends in Eastern Europe in His hands,
He’s got our friends in Eastern Europe in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got everybody here in His hands,
He's got the whole world in His hands.
Bible reading Nahum 1.14-15, 2.1-13 (p.938)
How firm a foundation, you saints of the Lord, MP 243 v.1,2,4,5,6
Is laid for your faith in His excellent word;
What more can He say than to you He has said,
You who unto Jesus for refuge have fled?
Fear not, He is with you, O be not dismayed;
For He is your God, and will still give you aid;
He'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
Upheld by His righteous, omnipotent hand.
When through the deep waters He calls you to go,
The rivers of grief shall not you overflow;
For He will be with you in trouble to bless,
And sanctify to you your deepest distress.
When through fiery trials your pathways shall lie,
My grace, all sufficient, shall be your supply
The flame shall not hurt you; my only design
Your dross to consume, and your gold to refine.
The soul that on Jesus has leaned for repose,
He will not, He will not, desert to its foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake,
He’ll never, no never, no never forsake.
Sermon
Sing to God new songs of worship MP 600
All His deeds are marvellous;
He has brought salvation to us
With His hand and holy arm:
He has shown to all the nations
Righteousness and saving power;
He recalled His truth and mercy
To His people Israel.
Sing to God new songs of worship
Earth has seen His victory;
Let the lands of earth be joyful
Praising Him with thankfulness:
Sound upon the harp His praises,
Play to Him with melody;
Let the trumpets sound His triumph,
Show your joy to God the king!
Sing to God new songs of worship
Let the sea now make a noise;
All on earth and in the waters,
Sound your praises to the Lord!
Let the hills be joyful together,
Let the rivers clap their hands,
For with righteousness and justice
He will come to judge the earth.
Prayer of thanksgiving and intercession
By faith we see the hand of God MP 1262
In the light of creation's grand design
In the lives of those who prove His faithfulness
Who walk by faith and not by sight.
By faith our fathers roamed the earth
With the power of His promise in their hearts
Of a holy city built by God's own hand
A place where peace and justice reign.
We will stand as children of the promise
We will fix our eyes on Him our soul's reward
Till the race is finished and the work is done
We'll walk by faith and not by sight.
By faith the prophets saw a day
When the longed-for Messiah would appear
With the power to break the chains of sin and death
And rise triumphant from the grave.
By faith the church was called to go
In the power of the Spirit to the lost
To deliver captives and to preach good news
In every corner of the earth.
By faith this mountain shall be moved
And the power of the gospel shall prevail
For we know in Christ all things are possible
For all who call upon His name.
