  2. 2. Then Jesus calls for faith to see God’s glory and gives thanks to His Father. (John 11:38-42)
  3. 3. Finally, Jesus raises Lazarus by His Word and frees him from the grave. (John 11:43-44)

 Prayer of Application

Song of Response – Psalm 16 (Seedbed Psalter; tune: “Crown Him with Many Crowns”)

Benediction – May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Romans 15:13

 

Psalm 16

O keep me safe, my God—I take refuge in Thee.
I said to God, “You are my Lord; I have no good but Thee.”
As for Your saints on earth, they are the glo-rious ones;
The godly who are my delight—Your daughters and Your sons.

 

Those who seek other gods, their sorrows will increase,
For chasing after emptiness will never bring them peace.
I will not join with them, blood offerings to make;
The names of idols, empty gods, on my lips I’ll not take.

 

The Lord’s my portion and my cup, my sure defense;
For You have made my lot secure – You’re my inheritance.
The bound’ries of my life have fallen pleasantly;
My heritage, my sure repose, is beautiful to me.

 

I’ll praise and bless the Lord who has instructed me;
Indeed, my heart and mind all night do counsel give to me.
For I have set the Lord before me e’er to stand;
And I will never shaken be, for He’s at my right hand.

 

Therefore, my heart is glad, my spirit does rejoice;
My flesh will also dwell secure, and I’ll lift up my voice.
You won’t abandon me to death and the grave’s sway;
You won’t allow Your Holy One to undergo decay.

 

You have made known to me the path of life, the Way;
For in Your presence there is joy in all its full array.
At Your right hand are found both joy and pleasures’ store;
For in Your presence, at Your hand, are pleasures evermore.
