Call to Worship
Have someone read aloud:
1 John 4:20-21 (NKJV)
If someone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen? And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God must love his brother also.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank You for the unconditional love that You have lavished upon us. We love and honor You by loving people with Your truth and grace. You are Love. We, Your church, will continue to proclaim You on earth by the love we give to others. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
Worship through Songs

[Verse 1]
All hail the pow’r of Jesus’ name
Let angels prostrate fall
Let angels prostrate fall
Bring forth the royal diadem
And crown Him
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him
And crown Him Lord of all
[Verse 2]
Ye chosen seed of Israel’s race
Ye ransomed from the fall
Ye ransomed from the fall
Hail Him who saves you by His grace
And crown Him
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him
And crown Him Lord of all
[Vese 3]
Let every kindred, every tribe
On this terrestrial ball
On this terrestrial ball
To Him all majesty ascribe
And crown Him
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him
And crown Him Lord of all
[Verse 4]
O that with yonder sacred throng
We at His feet may fall
We at His feet may fall
We’ll join the everlasting song
And crown Him
Crown Him, crown Him, crown Him
And crown Him Lord of all

[Verse 1]
Happiness is to know the Savior
Living a life within His favor
Having a change in my behavior
Happiness is the Lord
[Verse 2]
Happiness is a new creation
“Jesus and me,” in close relation
Having a part in His salvation
Happiness is the Lord
[Refrain]
Real joy is mine
No matter if teardrops start
I’ve found the secret
It’s Jesus in my heart
[Verse 3]
Happiness is to be forgiven
Livin’ a life that’s worth the livin’
Taking a trip that leads to heaven
Happiness is the Lord
[Refrain]
Real joy is mine
No matter if teardrops start
I’ve found the secret
It’s Jesus in my heart
[Verse 1]
Happiness is to know the Savior
Living a life within His favor
Having a change in my behavior
Happiness is the Lord
[End]
Happiness is the Lord
Happiness is the Lord

Wonderful, merciful Savior
Precious Redeemer and Friend
Who would have thought that a Lamb
Could rescue the souls of men
Oh, You rescue the souls of men

Counselor, Comforter, Keeper
Spirit we long to embrace
You offer hope when our hearts have
Hopelessly lost our way
Oh, we've hopelessly lost the way

You are the One we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for

Almighty, infinite Father
Faithfully loving Your own
Here in our weakness You find us
Falling before Your throne
Oh, we're falling before Your throne

You are the One we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for

You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for
Scripture Reading
Read aloud (together if applicable).
R-48 LOVE ONE ANOTHER 彼此相愛
John 13:34-35; Ephesians 4:31-5:2; 1 John 3:14-18; 4:7 (NKJV)
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.
Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death. Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.
By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?
My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

[Verse]
Shepherd of my soul
I give You full control
Wherever You may lead, I will follow
I have made the choice
To listen for Your voice
Wherever You may lead, I will go
[Verse]
Shepherd of my soul
I give You full control
Wherever You may lead, I will follow
I have made the choice
To listen for Your voice
Wherever You may lead, I will go
[Chorus]
Be it in a quiet pasture
Or by a gentle stream
The Shepherd of my soul is by my side
Should I face a mighty mountain
Or a valley dark and deep
The Shepherd of my soul will be my guide
[Verse]

Worship through Prayer
Purify my love. Let me love with truth and grace. Teach me to love in righteousness. When I don't see eye-to-eye with my loved ones, help me take the side of Your truth in love. Let every conflict be another opportunity to grow in mutual understanding that strengthens my bond with them.
Let no bitter roots take hold of my heart. Cleanse my mind from any sinful thoughts that I have against them. Help me strive to love them sincerely even in my private thoughts, words and feelings.
Father, forgive me for the sinful acts that I have committed towards my brothers and sisters. Against You, O Lord, have I done these, for they too bear Your image. May I see them as people whom You love and treat them carefully out of my love and reverence for You.
