Worship Notes

The Once and Future King

I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart; I will recount all of Your wonderful deeds. —Psalm 9:1 We began this “summer in the psalms” with a commandment to recount the things that God has done for us (Psalm 9:1). As we come to the close of this sermon series, we find David again telling what God has done for him,…

God Save the King

When you are in trouble, who do you call for help? Who or what do you trust to be at your side when you need them?  This morning’s service points us to a single, heavenly answer to these perennial questions. Various Scripture readings remind us that “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved” (Romans 10:13),…

Revealing Our Rock and Redeemer

Psalm 19 can be divided into three primary sections, centered around verses 1 (“The heavens declare the glory of God…”), 7 (“The law of the Lord is perfect…”), and 12 (“Who can discern his errors…”). The worship service this morning follows much the same pattern: a focus on both natural and special revelation, followed by a prayer that our speech and attitudes…

Sovereign God, Sovereign Grace

The first half of Psalm 18 depicts God’s awesome power and majesty, vividly describing Him as a rock, fortress, deliverer, shield, a “horn of salvation,” and a stronghold, among other things. Most of the music we sing in this morning’s service picks up on or elaborates on these concepts. Blest Be The Lord, My Rock, My Might (Psalm 144) incorporates…

Beholding God’s Face

Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. —Matthew 5:8 In last week’s sermon, Pastor Jamie mentioned the “beatific vision,” the immediate knowledge of God which we will experience in eternity—or more simply, “the happy sight of God.” You’ll find references to this concept at the end of Psalm 17 (vs. 15), as well as in many of the…

The Everlasting Man

When planning for this summer psalms series, I initially chose Psalm 15 for a new setting because of the calendar: Psalm 15 was scheduled for the last Sunday in June (a month with five Sundays), which meant we could practice the new setting over four Sundays before using it to conclude the service this week. I was also intrigued by…

No, Not One

Is any among you afflicted? Let him pray. Is any merry? Let him sing psalms. —James 5:13, King James Version Though psalm singing is a common practice throughout the history of Christian worship, the creation of metrical psalms—translations of the psalms into strict rhyming verse that can be easily fitted to musical settings in repeating stanzas—is a hallmark of the…
