Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew
Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and

a right spirit within me.
uphold me with thy free spirit. Amen.

IV. PRAYER BY LEADER (all seated with heads bowed).

Almighty God our Heavenly Father, we thank thee that thou hast made known unto us the way of prayer, that through Jesus Christ, our intercessor, we may speak to thee and make known the desire of our hearts. Help us to be sincere in our prayers. Quiet, we pray thee, our doubts and give us that faith which will make our prayers effectual. Forgive us for the many times we have forgotten to pray. As we stop and count our daily blessings, may we remember thee, thou who art the giver of every good and perfect gift. Give us a daily sense of thy nearness. We ask this in the name and for the sake of Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

V. SONG (all standing). Tune: Jude.

Jesus calls us, o'er the tumult

Of our life's wild, restless sea; Day by day his sweet voice soundeth, Saying, Christian, follow me!

Jesus calls us-from the worship

Of the vain world's golden store; From each idol that would keep us, Saying, Christian, love me more.

No. 29.

In our joys and in our sorrows,
Days of toil and hours of ease,
Still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
Christian, love me more than these!

Jesus calls us! by thy mercies,

Saviour, may we hear thy call; Give our hearts to thy obedience, Serve and love thee best of all!

VI. OFFERING (preceded by silent prayer). Anthem and special music.

VII. SONG (all standing). TUNE: I NEED THEE. NO. 38.

I need thee every hour,

Most gracious Lord;

No tender voice like thine
Can peace afford.

REFRAIN: I need thee, oh! I need thee;
Every hour I need thee;

O bless me now, my Saviour!
I come to thee.

Leader: And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.

Be not ye therefore like unto them; for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. And after this manner therefore pray ye:

All: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.

X. SONG (all standing). TUNE: WHAT A FRIEND. No. 20.

What a friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!-
What a privilege_to_carry

Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer!

XI. CLOSING PRAYER.

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge,—
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In his arms he'll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

In nothing be anxious, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known unto God; and the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Amen.

Leader: Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way?

All: By taking heed thereto according to thy word.

Leader: Who shall ascend unto the hill of the Lord? or who shall stand in his holy place?

All: He that hath clean hands and a pure heart: who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

Leader: Know ye not that ye are temples of God, and that the spirit of God dwelleth in you. If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God also destroy: for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all

things.

Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown: but we an incorruptible.

I therefore, so run, not as uncertainly: so fight I, not as one that beateth the air: But I keep under my body and bring it into subjection.

For ye are bought with a price; therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit which are God's.

Be not deceived: God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

For he that soweth to his flesh, shall of the flesh reap corruption, but he that soweth to the spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting. Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready but the flesh is weak.

Leader: O God, help us to know ourselves as temples of thine, give us strength to resist temptation. Bring us into harmony with all that is pure and good. Create within us a growing hatred toward filthiness of speech and impurity of life. May our lips be clean. May our hearts be pure. Hear us as we unitedly make our prayer of confession unto

thee.

All: Have mercy upon us, O God, according to thy loving kindness, according to thy tender mercies, blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. For I acknowledge my transgressions and my sin is ever before me. Create in me a clean heart; and renew a right spirit within me, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

VIII. OFFERING:

TUNE: EVENTIDE. No. 9.

CLOSING HYMN (all standing). TUNE: ALL SAINTS. No. 3.

O Jesus, Prince of life and truth,
Beneath thy banner bright

We dedicate our strength and youth
To battle for the right;

We give our lives with glad intent
To serve the world and thee,
To die, to suffer and be spent
To set our brothers free.

In serried ranks, with fearless tread,
O Captain of us all,

Thy glory on our banners shed,

We answer to thy call;

And where the fiercest battles press
Against the hosts of sin,
To rescue those in dire distress
We gladly enter in.

XI. CLOSING SENTENCE.

O Jesus, once, like us, a boy,
And tempted like as we,
All inward foes help us destroy
And spotless all to be.

We trust thee for the grace to win
The high, victorious goal,
Where purity shall conquer sin
In Christlike self-control.

With regiment on regiment
We valiantly go forth,

No line divides the continent

East, West or South or North;
And where the hills of glory shine
With light supremely fair,

Each loyal lad shall still be thine
And in thy triumph share.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are of good report, if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

SERVICE

I. HYMN (all standing). TUNE: HARK TO THE SOUND. No. 60.

Leader: Serve the Lord with gladness.

All: With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to man. Leader: I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

All: All things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them.
