Good singing will open with a word of prayer. Dear Father, thank you for this time that we have to sing praises to your son and to his birth. I pray that we would be in remembrance of your son, Lord, this Christmas season, and fill us with your spirit as we sing praises unto you. In Jesus' name I pray, amen. With that, we'll go to our second hymn. If you would, just flip the page. It should actually be on the same page if you have it open. 422. Thou didst leave thy throne. Hymn number 422. We'll go ahead and start there right on the first. Thou didst leave thy throne and thy kingly crown when thou camest to earth for me. But in Bethlehem's throne was there found no room for thy holy nativity. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, there is room in my heart for thee. Heaven's arches rang and the angels sang, proclaiming thy royal degree. But of holy birth didst thou come to earth and in great humility. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, there is room in my heart for thee. The foxes compressed and the birds their nest in the shade of the forest stream. But thy couch was the sun, O the Son of God, in the deserts of Galilee. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, there is room in my heart for thee. Thou didst miss the ward with the living word that should set thy people free. But with mockeys horn and with crown of gourd they bore thee to Calvary. O come to my heart, Lord Jesus, there is room in my heart for thee. When the heavens shall ring and the angels sing and thy coming to victory, let thy voice call thee home, saying, Yet there is room, there is room at my side for thee. My heart shall rejoice for Jesus when thou comest and callest for me. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to Anchor Baptist Church. This time we'll go through our announcements. If you don't have a bulletin, go ahead and raise your hand and the usher will bring you one. On the front is our Bible memory passage of the week, Hebrews chapter 6, verse number 20. This is the last verse in the chapter, so we'll have this week and next week will be a grace week. So you still have two full weeks to memorize this chapter and anyone that memorizes it word perfect and can quote it to an adult non-family member will have the option between a couple different prizes. We've got some Anchor Baptist Church hats, coffee mugs, and some gift cards as well, so I'm excited to hand those out to everyone. So keep working hard the next two weeks on that. Contact information is there on the front. If you open up your bulletin on the left side is our service times listed. Sunday morning at 1030, our evening service at 4 o'clock, and our Wednesday evening Bible study at 7 o'clock. All of our soul winning times are listed there and those meet here at the church building. Today at 2 o'clock is our soul winning time. Our nursing home ministry schedule is listed there. If you preach in that, make note of those schedules there. And our year-to-date statistics are listed on the bottom. Great job soul winning. We're getting close to the 550-ish mark for the year, so great job on that. Keep it up. On the right, you'll see our list of expecting ladies. Please be in prayer for Miss Whitney Reed for her pregnancy. And some upcoming events. Today is the day for the children's choir. I'm really excited to hear all the kids sing. Thank you to the halls for helping out with this and for all the kiddos for your practice. I'm really looking forward to hearing what you guys got this morning and just hearing the blessing of you guys singing. After the third song, Brother Cameron's going to instruct the children to come up here. We're going to move the pulpit back and then we're going to have our kids choir. So, I'm excited for that. Also, I wanted to let you know, I did instruct our audio video guys. They're going to make sure that the choir is being recorded nicely on the camera. They're going to be in frame. There's going to be audio and all that. So don't feel like you have to pull out your phone and record. You're more than welcome to. I understand people want to do that. But if you want to just sit back and enjoy, feel free to do that as well. So, it should be recorded for everyone. December 25th, after our Wednesday service, we're going to be having a cookie bake-off. And December 31st, we're going to have our midweek service on that Tuesday. December 31st, rather than on Wednesday, there's going to be a men's preaching night and then also some food and games afterward. Our giving is listed there. If you want to give online, you can scan that code. And on the back is our prayer list. Please keep all of the church members here in prayer. And if you have any requests, make sure you let me know and I'd be glad to add that for you. We're going to go ahead and go to our third song. And after that, we're going to have our children's choir. All right, for our third song this morning, turn, if you would, to 427, We Three Kings of Orientar. 427, 427, We Three Kings of Orientar. And we'll sing there starting on the first. We three kings of Orientar Bearing gifts we traverse afar Field and fountain, border and mountain Following yonder star Oh, star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light Born a king on Bethlehem's plain Hold thy grain to crown him again King forever, ceasing never Over us all to reign Oh, star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light Great consent to offer at-bye Incense owns body as we die Rare and crazy, home in raising Worship in God on high Oh, star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light Buried by his bitter perfume Reads a life of gathering gloom Swirling, sighing, pleading Dying, stealing the stronghold tomb Oh, star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light Glorious now, behold him arise King and God, all in sacrifice Alleluia, alleluia Field through the earth and skies Oh, star of wonder, star of night Star with royal beauty bright Westward leading, still proceeding Guide us to thy perfect light Amen.
