SONG: Take Time to Be Holy - UM Hymnal (blue book) # 395
1. Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord; abide in him always, and feed on his word. 
Make friends of God's children, help those who are weak, forgetting in nothing his blessing to seek.
2. Take time to be holy, the world rushes on; spend much time in secret with Jesus alone.
By looking to Jesus, like him thou shalt be; thy friends in thy conduct his likeness shall see.
3. Take time to be holy, let him be thy guide, and run not before him, whatever betide.
In joy or in sorrow, still follow the Lord, and, looking to Jesus, still trust in his word.
4. Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul, each thought and each motive beneath his control.
Thus led by his spirit to fountains of love, thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.

SONG: O Jesus, I Have Promised - UM Hymnal (blue book) # 396
1 O Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; be thou forever near me, my Master and my friend. I shall not fear the battle if thou art by my side, nor wander from the pathway if thou wilt be my guide.
2 O let me feel thee near me! The world is ever near; I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear; my foes are ever near me, around me and within; but Jesus, draw thou nearer, and shield my soul from sin.
3 O let me hear thee speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; O speak, and make me listen, thou guardian of my soul.
4 O Jesus, thou hast promised to all who follow thee that where thou art in glory there shall thy servant be. And Jesus, I have promised to serve thee to the end; O give me grace to follow, my Master and my Friend.

THE LORD’S PRAYER ON FATHER’S DAY
by The Rev. Marilyn E. Thornton from UMC Discipleship Ministries Worship
Our Father who art in heaven, bless the fathers who are on earth; those who work hard every day to light a path and show the way; those who forget and don't perceive  the devastation when they leave. Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come; thy Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Help the earthly fathers know and praise your name in daily flow, making no difference between the holy realm and worldly scene. Give us this day our daily bread. And for the dads without a job, strengthen their faith in Provider God.  Feed them with the bread of love, the wine of justice, the meat of determination, the fruit of the spirit; that they will remember how Jesus gave himself for us demonstrating that there are many ways for a MAN TO GIVE. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. Teach our men the ways of peace desiring that all violence shall cease whether husband/wife, parents/children, Black on black, nation to nation. Neither tongue, hand, gun, knife. No shock and awe, no fiery towers . . . Help humanity learn HOW TO FORGIVE. And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Guide all daddies to be wise. Give them strength of soul to seek the prize of a world without racism or greed, a world where no child is left in need, a world where cheaters cannot win, salvation reigns, there is no sin. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever, Amen.

BLESSING AND SENDING
May the grace and peace of Christ be with you, my friends. 
Go and share the love of God, love that never ends.
