Princeton University Chapel – March 13, 2022 – Second Sunday of Lent
You are invited to rise, in body or spirit, for those parts of the service marked with an asterisk (*)
Invitatory - Prière, Op. 20 from The Complete Works of César Franck: II by César Franck (1822-1890)
Welcome and Announcements - Dean Thames
*Hymn No. 8 - Praise to the Living God (Diademata)
*Call to Worship - Dean Boden   
Invocation         
*Prayer of Confession
One:  Let us confess our sins to God.
All:  Almighty and everlasting God, always more ready to hear than we are to pray, always willing to give more than we either desire or deserve: pour upon us the abundance of your mercy; forgive what we have been, help us to amend what we are, and direct what we shall be; that we may delight in your will and walk in your ways, through Jesus Christ our Savior.  Amen.
*Assurance of Forgiveness
Reading - Psalm 27 - The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?  The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?  When evildoers assail me to devour my flesh— my adversaries and foes— they shall stumble and fall.  Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident.  One thing I asked of the Lord, that will I seek after: to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple.  For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will set me high on a rock.  Now my head is lifted up above my enemies all around me, and I will offer in his tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing and make melody to the Lord.  Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me!  “Come,” my heart says, “seek his face!”  Your face, Lord, do I seek.  Do not hide your face from me.  Do not turn your servant away in anger, you who have been my help.  Do not cast me off, do not forsake me, O God of my salvation!  If my father and mother forsake me, the Lord will take me up.  Teach me your way, O Lord, and lead me on a level path because of my enemies.  Do not give me up to the will of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen against me, and they are breathing out violence.  I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!
Anthem - Meditabor in mandatis Tuis by Caspar Aiblinger (1779-1867) - I will meditate on thy commandments, which I have loved exceedingly: and I will lift up my hands to thy commandments, which I have loved. - Psalm 119:47-48a
Reading - Philippians 3:17-4:1 - Brothers and sisters, join in imitating me, and observe those who live according to the example you have in us.  For many live as enemies of the cross of Christ; I have often told you of them, and now I tell you even with tears. Their end is destruction; their god is the belly; and their glory is in their shame; their minds are set on earthly things.  But our citizenship is in heaven, and it is from there that we are expecting a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.  He will transform the body of our humiliation that it may be conformed to the body of his glory, by the power that also enables him to make all things subject to himself.  Therefore, my brothers and sisters, whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, my beloved.
Sermon - “Divine Makeover” by Otis Byrd, Jr.
*Hymn No. 446 - Jesus, Still Lead On (Seelenbräutigam)
Prayers of the People
One: God of love and mercy,
All: Hear our prayer.
Lord’s Prayer - Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name.  Thy kingdom come.  Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread.  And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.  And lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil.  For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever.  Amen.
Choral response - Stand by Me by Charles Albert Tindley (1851-1933) - When the storms of life are raging, stand by me.  When the storms of life are raging, stand by me.  When the world is tossing me like a ship upon the sea,Thou who rulest wind and water, stand by me in the midst of tribulations, stand by me.  In the midst of tribulations, stand by me.  When the host of hell assail, and my strength begins to fail, Thou who never lost a battle, stand by me.  In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me.  In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me.  When I’ve done the best I can, and my friends misunderstand, Thou who knowest all about me, stand by me.
*Exchange of the Peace
One:  The peace of God be always with you.
All:And also with you.
Offertory Sentence
Music at the Offering - Psalm 130 by John Ferguson (b. 1941) - Out of the depths I cry to you; O Savior, hear me calling. let your ears consider the voice of my supplication.  If you, Lord, were to note what is done amiss, who, Lord?  Who could stand?  For there is forgiveness with you; therefore you shall be feared.  I wait for the Lord, my soul waits for the Lord, whose word is my hope. - Psalm 130, translated from Martin Luther’s text
*Doxology - Praise God the Source of life and birth, praise God the Word enfleshed on earth, praise God, the Spirit, Holy Flame, All glory, honor to God’s name!  (Old Hundredth)
*Prayer for Princeton - O Eternal God, the source of life and light for all peoples, we pray you would endow this University with your grace and wisdom: give inspiration and understanding to those who teach and to those who learn; grant vision to its trustees and administrators; to all who work here and to all who bear her name give your guiding Spirit of sacrificial courage and loving service.  Amen.
*Hymn No. 436:  God of Grace and God of Glory (Cwm Rhondda)

Princeton University Chapel, February 13, 2022, Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany
You are invited to rise, in body or spirit, for those parts of the service marked with an asterisk (*)
Invitatory:  Jesus Christus, unser Heiland, BWV 666;  Herr Jesu Christ, dich zu uns wend, BWV 655; Jesus Christus, unser Heiland, BWV 665 by Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750)
Welcome and Announcements:  Dean Thames
*Hymn No. 50:  I Sing the Praise of Love Almighty (St. Petersburg)
*Call to Worship
*Invocation
Reading:  Jeremiah 17:5-10 Thus says God: cursed are those who trust in mere mortals and make mere flesh their strength, whose hearts turn away from the Almighty.  They shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when relief comes.  They shall live in the parched places of the wilderness, in an uninhabited salt land.  Blessed are those who trust in God, whose trust is the Almighty.  They shall be like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots by the stream.  It shall not fear when heat comes, and its leaves shall stay green; in the year of drought it is not anxious, and it does not cease to bear fruit.   The heart is devious above all else; it is perverse—who can understand it?  I the Almighty test the mind and search the heart, to give to all according to their ways, according to the fruit of their doings.
Anthem:  Blessed Are the Pure in Heart by Henry Walford Davies (1869-1941)    Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see our God; the secret of the Lord is theirs, their soul is Christ’s abode.  Still to the lowly soul He doth Himself impart, and for His cradle and His throne chooseth the pure in heart.  John Keble (1792-1866)
Reading:  Luke 6:17-26    He came down with them and stood on a level place, with a great crowd of his disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea, Jerusalem, and the coast of Tyre and Sidon.  They had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured.  And all in the crowd were trying to touch him, for power came out from him and healed all of them.  Then he looked up at his disciples and said: “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.  “Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be filled.  “Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh.  “Blessed are you when people hate you, and when they exclude you, revile you, and defame you on account of the Son of Man.  Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, for surely your reward is great in heaven; for that is what their ancestors did to the prophets.  “But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.  “Woe to you who are full now, for you will be hungry.  “Woe to you who are laughing now, for you will mourn and weep.  “Woe to you when all speak well of you, for that is what their ancestors did to the false prophets.
Sermon:  “Search Engine of the Heart” by Dean Boden

For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever. Amen.

Offertory Sentence
Music at the Offering:  I Would Be True by Undine Smith Moore (1904-1989)    I would be true, for there are those who trust me;I would be pure, for there are those who care; I would be strong, for there is much to suffer; I would be brave, for there is much to dare!  I would be friend of all, the foe, the friendless; I would be giving, and forget the gift; I would be humble, for I know my weakness; I would look up and laugh and love and lift!  Howard A. Walter (1833-1918)

*Benediction
Voluntary:  Gaudeamus by Sidney Campbell   (1909-1974)
Black History Month Music Series:  In February, the Chapel Choir features music by Black composers in various genres.  Our goal is to venture off the well-worn path of choral arrangements of traditional spirituals into a more complex musical world.  We recognize that Black history is far more expansive and vibrant than the centuries of slavery and oppression in the United States.  Black history is rich and varied, spans the globe over millennia, and has stories to tell of joy and liberation, not just struggle.  This month we will share some of these stories, and we recommit to our goal of including historically marginalized composers throughout the year.  About today’s featured composers:  Arranger Nolan Williams, Jr., is a multi-faceted creator who “uses his art to commemorate, educate and uplift.”  His body of work includes Grammy-nominated songwriting projects; choral/orchestral works premiered by the National Symphony and Philadelphia Orchestras; and cultural programming developed with the Smithsonian Institute, the U.S. State Department, and the Embassies of India and South Africa.  Williams’s work as a resident in Social Practice at the Kennedy Center REACH led to the creation of Stirring the Waters Across America, a multimedia concert highlighting key events of the Civil Rights movement.  Undine Smith Moore is often called the “Dean of Black Woman Composers.”  She studied piano, organ, and music theory at Fisk University, a historically Black institution, and earned a Master of Arts in Teaching at Columbia University.  While a faculty member at the Virginia State University Department of Music, she founded the university’s Black Music Center, which brought leading Black composers, lecturers, and other musicians to the college.  Many of Moore’s compositions and arrangements were written for her own students, drawing from spirituals and other songs she learned as a child.  The piece we sing today, “I Will Be True,” is an original work, a ge
