ONLINE WORSHIP

April 5 - Palm Sunday Worship

4/4/2020

 
Picture
We begin our Holy Week journey this Palm Sunday in a variety of ways online.  Included in the SoundCloud audio file is the usual liturgy of calls to worship & confession, prayers, readings, sermon, and benediction led by Pastor Michael.  In addition, a dramatic reading of the Palm Sunday story in the style of a man-on-the-street interview podcast is presented by Shaun Cloonan, Lisa Segedy, and Jim Segedy. 

Two musical selections are included as well:
  • "The Palms" by Jean Baptiste Faure, a favorite that has been part of our Palm Sunday services on and off for many years, is presented from a recording posted by the Seattle First Baptist Church on their site from 5 years ago.  Lyrics are listed below if you would like to sing along to the recording.  Also, if you'd like to watch the original video where the audio track was pulled from, visit: https://vimeo.com/123569601
  • "Hosanna" by Carl Tuttle was taken from a video posted of our Palm Sunday emerging service in March 2008 that featured the worship ensemble, choir, readers, and music from "Jesus Christ Superstar."  The video quality is certainly not what we are accustomed to today, but you can view the entire service (broken into 4 smaller video parts) at http://fpceworshipservice.blogspot.com/2008/03/worship-service-03-16-2008-part-1.html

Finally, the Lenten Candle ritual for the 6th Sunday in Lent is posted as a video on our YouTube channel, with Pastor Michael leading the liturgy in the sanctuary, extinguishing the lights leading us on the dark path toward the cross this week.

Lyrics to "The Palms"
1 O'er all the way green palms and blossoms gay
Are strewn this day in festive preparation,
Where Jesus comes, to wipe our tears away,
E'en now the throng to welcome Him prepare.

Refrain:
Join all and sing His name declare,
Let ev'ry voice resound with acclamation,
Hosanna! Praised be the Lord!
Bless Him, who cometh to bring us salvation!

2 His word goes forth, and people by its might
Once more their freedom gain from degradation,
Humanity doth give to each his right,
While those in darkness find restored the light. [Refrain]

3 Sing and rejoice, O blest Jerusalem,
Of all thy sons sing the emancipation,
Thro’ boundless love, the Christ of Bethlehem
Brings faith the hope to thee forevermore. [Refrain]


Lyrics to "Hosanna"
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest!
Hosanna, Hosanna, Hosanna in the highest!

Lord we lift up Your name with hearts full of praise
Be exalted oh Lord my God! Hosanna in the highest! 

Glory, Glory, Glory to the King of Kings!
Glory, Glory, Glory to the King of Kings!

Lord we lift up Your name 
with hearts full of praise
Be exalted oh Lord my God! Glory to the King of Kings!

Be exalted oh Lord my God! Hosanna in the highest!
