Amen.
I could not do without Thee, O Savior of the lost, Whose precious blood redeemed me, at such tremendous cost. Thy righteousness, Thy pardon, Thy precious blood must be My only hope and comfort, my glory and my plea.

GO IN GOD’S NAME Hymn of Response* Be Thou My Vision #303 Invitation and Benediction*
I could not do without Thee, I cannot stand alone. I have no strength or goodness, no wisdom of my own. But Thou, beloved Savior, art all in all to me, And weakness will be power if leaning hard on Thee.
Postlude
I could not do without Thee, O Jesus, Savior dear; E’en when my eyes are ’holden, I know that Thou art near. How dreary and how lonely this changeful life would be Without the sweet communion, the secret rest with Thee. I could not do without Thee, for years are fleeting fast, And soon in solemn loneness, the river must be passed. But Thou wilt never leave me, and though the waves roll high, I know Thou wilt be near me, and whisper, “It is I.”
Doxology* Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow #544
