Worship Service
Worship at Jubilee follows a variable liturgy. Each service includes traditional Biblical elements, but these elements are structured according to an outline gleaned from a Psalm.
Here is a typical example:

Call to Worship: Psalm 42:1,2 (Elder: this is the Word of the Lord; All: Thanks be to God)

Assurance of Pardon
Therefore REMEMBER Him!
Psalm 42:6 (Elder: this is the Word of the Lord; All: Thanks be to God)
On Jordan’s Stormy Banks
On Jordan's stormy banks I stand and cast a wishful eye
To Caanan's fair and happy land where my possessions lie
All o're those wide extended plains shines one eternal day
There God, the Son forever rains and scatters night away
Chorus:
I am bound, I am bound, I am bound for the Promise Land
I am bound, I am bound, I am bound for the Promise Land
No chilling wind nor poisonous breath can reach that healthful shore
Where sickness, sorrow, pain and death are felt and feared no more
Chorus
When shall I see that happy place and be forever blessed
When shall I see my Father's face and in His bosom rest
Chorus
Amen!
