33. Scripture Reading

34. Exodus 19:1-8 (NIV)
At Mount Sinai
19 On the first day of the third month
after the Israelites left Egypt—on that
very day—they came to the Desert of
Sinai. 2 After they set out from
Rephidim,

35. they entered the Desert of Sinai,
and Israel camped there in the desert in
front of the mountain.
3 Then Moses went up to God,
and the Lord called to him from the
mountain and said, “This is what you
are to say to the descendants of Jacob

36. and what you are to tell the people of
Israel: 4 ‘You yourselves have seen
what I did to Egypt, and how I carried
you on eagles’ wings and brought you
to myself. 5 Now if you obey me
fully and keep my covenant, then out of
all nations you will be my treasured

37. possession. Although the whole earth is
mine, 6 you will be for me a kingdom
of priests and a holy nation.’ These are
the words you are to speak to the
Israelites.” 7 So Moses went back and
summoned the elders of the people and
set before them all the words

38. the Lord had commanded him to
speak. 8 The people all responded
together, “We will do everything
the Lord has said.” So Moses brought
their answer back to the Lord.

39. Mark 9:2-8 (NIV)
The Transfiguration
2 After six days Jesus took Peter, James
and John with him and led them up a
high mountain, where they were all
alone. There he was transfigured before
them. 3 His clothes became dazzling

40. white, whiter than anyone in the world
could bleach them. 4 And there
appeared before them Elijah and
Moses, who were talking with Jesus.
5 Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good
for us to be here. Let us put up three
shelters—one for you,

41. one for Moses and one for
Elijah.” 6 (He did not know what to
say, they were so frightened.)
7 Then a cloud appeared and covered
them, and a voice came from the cloud:
“This is my Son, whom I love. Listen
to him!”

42.
8 Suddenly, when they looked around,
they no longer saw anyone with them
except Jesus.

43. Leader:
The Word of God for the
People of God.
People:
Thanks be to God.

44. MESSAGE

Covenant”

“Just as I Am”
#357 red hymnal

46. Just as I am, without one plea, but
that thy blood was shed for me,
and that thou bidst me come to
thee, O Lamb of God, I come, I
come.

47. Just as I am, and waiting not to rid
my soul of one dark blot, to thee
whose blood can
cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I
come, I come.

48. Just as I am, though tossed about
with many a conflict, many a
doubt, fightings and fears within,
without, O Lamb of God, I come, I
come.

49. Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
sight, riches, healing of the mind,
yea, all I need in thee to find, O
Lamb of God, I come, I come.

50. Just as I am, thou wilt receive, wilt
welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
because thy promise I believe, O
Lamb of God, I come, I come.

51. Just as I am, thy love unknown hath
broken every barrier down; now, to
be thine, yea thine alone, O Lamb
of God, I come, I come.
