Offering Our Gifts I Lift Up Mine Eyes
Go in God's Name Hymn of Response* In Christ Alone
Allen Pote
I lift up mine eyes to the hills, And I wonder from where comes my help? My help, it comes from the Lord, The maker of heaven and earth. I lift up mine eyes to the hills, And I wonder, I wonder where is my help?
Invitation and Benediction* Postlude
He will not let you stumble, He will not let you fall, The Lord is your keeper. The sun will not strike you by day Nor the moon by night, The Lord will keep your life. I lift up mine eyes to the hills, And I wonder, I wonder where is my help? The Lord will keep you from all evil. He will keep your life. He will keep your going out, And your coming in from this time forth, And forevermore. —Psalm 46:1–7 Doxology* Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow #544

sunday, august 28 Meet fellow Peachtree people right in your neighborhood for a casual dinner you don’t want to miss! The agenda is simple: enjoy a picnic and new relationships. RSVP at: peachtreechurch.org/picnic We believe that when we follow Christ, we’re called not just to attend church for an hour on Sunday, but for the gospel to impact our daily lives. Red Dot is an initiative to help connect Peachtree people to grow together and live the daily life of following Jesus.

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. —Ephesians 6:13–18
