Come you weary heart now to Jesus

Come you anxious soul now and see

There is perfect love and comfort in your tears

Rest here in His wondrous peace

Oh the goodness, the goodness of Jesus

Satisfied He is all that I need

May it be, come what may, that I rest all my days

In the goodness of Jesus

Come find what this world cannot offer

Come and find your joy here complete

Taste the living water, never thirst again

Rest here in His wondrous peace

Come and find your hope now in Jesus

He is all He said He would be

Grace is overflowing from the Saviour’s heart

Rest here in His wondrous peace

Welcome and notices

Call to worship Psalm 63.1-3 (p.579)

Praise, my soul, the King of heaven MP 560

To His feet thy tribute bring;

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,

Who like me His praise should sing?

Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him!

Praise the everlasting King.

Praise Him for His grace and favour,

To our fathers in distress

Praise Him still the same for ever,

Slow to chide and swift to bless

Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him!

Glorious in His faithfulness.

Father-like He tends and spares us,

Well our feeble frame He know

In His hands He gently bears us,

Rescues us from all our foes

Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him!

Widely as His mercy flows.

Angels, help us to adore Him,

Ye behold Him face to face

Sun and moon, bow down before Him,

Dwellers all in time and space

Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him!

Praise with us the God of grace.

Prayer of approach to God

Together Time Westminster Shorter Catechism Q.27-28

You laid aside Your majesty, MP 795

Gave up everything for me,

Suffered at the hands of those You had created.

You took all my guilt and shame,

When You died and rose again:

Now today You reign,

In heaven and earth exalted.

I really want to worship You, my Lord.

You have won my heart and I am Yours

For ever and ever; I will love You.

You are the only one who died for me,

Gave Your life to set me free,

So I lift my voice to You in adoration.

Bible Reading John 4.1-19 (p.1066)

O soul, are you weary and troubled? MP 712

No light in the darkness you see?

There’s light for a look at the Savior,

And life more abundant and free!

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,

Look full in His wonderful face,

And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,

In the light of His glory and grace.

Through death into life everlasting,

He passed, and we follow Him there;

O’er us sin no more has dominion

For more than conquerors we are!

His Word shall not fail you He promised;

Believe Him, and all will be well:

Then go to a world that is dying,

His perfect salvation to tell!

Sermon

I heard the voice of Jesus say, MP 275

“Come unto me and rest

Lay down, thou weary one, lay down

Thy head upon my breast.”

I came to Jesus as I was,

So weary, worn and sad

I found in Him a resting place

And He has made me glad.

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

“Behold I freely give

The living water, thirsty one

Stoop down and drink and live.”

I came to Jesus and I drank

Of that life giving stream

My thirst was quenched,

My soul revived and now I live in Him.

I heard the voice of Jesus say,

“I am this dark world’s Light

Look unto me, thy morn shall rise

And all thy day be bright.”

I looked to Jesus and I found

In Him my Star, my Sun

And in that light of life I'll walk

Till travelling days are done.

Prayer of thanksgiving and intercession

Guide me, O thou great Jehovah MP 201

Pilgrim through this barren land;

I am weak, but thou art mighty;

Hold me with thy powerful hand:

Bread of heaven, bread of heaven

Feed me now and evermore.

Open now the crystal fountain

Whence the healing stream shall flow;

Let the fire and cloudy pillar

Lead me all my journey through:

Strong deliverer, strong deliverer

Be thou still my strength and shield.

When I tread the verge of Jordan,

Bid my anxious fears subside;

Death of death, and hell's destruction,

Land me safe on Canaan's side:

Songs of praises, songs of praises

I will ever give to thee.

Blessing
