Opening Hymn “Jesus Shall Reign Where’er The Sun”
1 Jesus shall reign where'er the sun
Doth his successive journeys run
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore
Till moons shall wax and wane no more
2 To him shall endless prayer be made
And endless praises crown his head
His name like sweet perfume shall rise
With every morning sacrifice
3 People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on his love with sweetest song
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on his name
4 Let all God's creatures rise and bring
their grateful honours to our King
Angels descend with songs again
And earth repeat the loud Amen

Sermon The Company He Keeps
Closing Hymn “The Solid Rock”
1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly lean on Jesus' name
Refrain:
On Christ the solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground is sinking sand
2 When darkness veils His lovely face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In ev'ry high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil [Refrain]
3 His oath His covenant His blood
Support me in the whelming flood
When all around my soul gives way
He then is all my hope and stay [Refrain]
4 When He shall come with trumpet sound
O may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne [Refrain]
Benediction:
