The Light Shines On Mars Hill

Democracy. It got its start in ancient Greece, home of phenomenal architecture and some great philosophers. It was to a group of these philosophers that the Apostle Paul spoke on a pivotal day in Athens 2,000 years ago. A culture with many mythological gods heard about the true and living God, and things would never again be the same.

Stay with us. From Chicago, this is The Moody Church Hour, a weekly service of worship and teaching with Pastor Erwin Lutzer. Today we continue an eight-part series on light shining in darkness, how the Gospel impacts culture.

Later in our broadcast, Erwin Lutzer takes us to Athens as the light shines on Mars Hill. Today's service begins with singing. Let's take our hymnals or look at the screens. Number 401, the church's one foundation is Jesus Christ, her Lord. She is his new creation by water and the Word.

Let's stand to sing all four verses. She is his new creation by water and the Word. He is his new creation by water and the Word.

He left of every nation, yet one for all the earth. There's one birth of salvation, one Lord, one faith, one birth. One holy grace she blesses, one taste, one holy food. And to one hope she blesses with every grace in her food. With toil and strength with patience, and to hold out her hope, She raises the bloods to praise you, all peace to evermore. Toil and heart is her voice, her hope is her service, And the patience in chorus shall be her service at rest.

Yes, she art half human, faith, heartful, free in one. Let this space shape the world with those whose best is right. Oh, happy ones and holy, God give us grace and peace. Light and body and glory, your God is helping me. In the light of Christ I see you, giving me from day to day.

High is love and power controlling, all I do can say. May the Word of God flourish in my heart from eye to eye, So that all may see I triumph only through this time. May the peace of God, my God, rule my life in everything, That I may be called to comfort, sick and sorrowful. May the love of Jesus journey, as the waters fill the sea, In this halting scoundrel they sing, this is victory. May I love the race before him, strong and brave, to praise the Lord, Looking only unto Jesus, as I long for more.

May this beauty rest upon me, as I seek the lost to win, And may faith, Lord, end the channel, seeing only him. Christ be with me, Christ be with me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ precisely, Christ to weary, Christ to comfort me, Christ to be sorry. Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in the hearts of all that love me, Christ in love of friend and stranger, Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ today, Christ forever, Christ within my life, Christ forever. Lord of all the heights where faith can lift a trusting light, Lord of all the depths where fear won't hear such faith invite, Lord of all of the nations quick to make their bearing arms, Lord of all of each child held by its mother's sleigh o'er. Lord of all, all Satan and Satan things, all the universe that sings it calls you Lord of all, Lord of all of the power not to sin, you have always been and always will be Lord of all.

Lord of all the beasts that we can draw with every breath, Lord of all the provision for each need in life and death, Lord of all of the journeys of the seasons and the earth, Lord of all of the love that purchased man a second birth, Lord of all, all Satan and Satan things, all the universe that sings it calls you Lord of all, Lord of all the power not to sin, you have always been and always will be Lord of all. Lord of all, in grateful praise we call you Lord of all, Lord of all, in grateful praise we call you Lord of all, Lord of all. I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice to worship you, all my soul rejoice. Say, Joy, my King, how to win, may it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear. I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice to worship you, all my soul rejoice. Say, Joy, my King, how to win, may it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear. I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice to worship you, all my soul rejoice. Say, Joy, my King, how to win, may it be a sweet, sweet sound in your ear. Amen. Thank you.
