Postlude

Mrs. Lana Cornutt

Join us as we welcome Dr. Hershael York as our guest preacher. Hershael York has served as the 11th dean of Southern Seminary's School of Theology since 2018, and as the Victor and Louise Lester Professor of Christian Preaching since 1999. He currently serves as the senior pastor of Buck Run Baptist Church in Frankfort, Kentucky.

Then Will the Very Rocks Cry Out

If we keep our voices silent, all creation will rise and shout. If we fail to praise You, Father, then will the very rocks cry out.

From the corners of creation come the people of the Living God. Every tongue and every nation gather now to praise the Lord!

From a world of tribulation come and let your voice be raised. Join us now in congregation. Let the Living God be praised.

Alleluia, alleluia, unto Him we offer praise. Alleluia, alleluia, this song of joy to Him we raise.

Alleluia, alleluia, in the heavens angels sing. Alleluia, alleluia, give glory to the most high King.
