Entrance Hymn: All Are Welcome

Let us build a house where love can dwell and all can safely live A place where saints and children tell how hearts learn to forgive. Built of hopes and dreams and visions Rock of faith and vault of grace Here the love of Christ shall end divisions All are welcome, all are welcome All are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where prophets speak and words are strong and true Where all God's children dare to seek to dream God's reign anew. Here the cross shall stand as witness and a symbol of God's grace. Here as one we claim the faith of Jesus All are welcome, all are welcome All are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where love is found In water, wine and wheat: A banquet hall on holy ground Where peace and justice meet. Here the love of God, through Jesus Is revealed in time and space As we share in Christ the feast that frees us All are welcome, all are welcome All are welcome in this place.

Offertory Hymn: Love Goes On

Love is patient, love is kind, never ending, never ending; slow to anger, rich in mercy, love goes on beyond all time.

Love is faithful, love is true, ever joyful and forgiving; love endures when life is over, love is old and love is new.

Love alone has shaped our soul, and our hearts are always restless until love becomes our purpose, new creation to unfold.

Love our journey, love our goal. Though our faith may move the mountains, love alone can heal the broken; only love will make us whole.

Love, our Savior’s one command: “Love the way that I have loved you,” with a towel and a basin, washing feet with servant hands.

There are three gifts that remain when all other things have perished. Only faith, hope, love enduring, and the greatest gift is love.

Communion Hymn: Blest Are They

Blest are they, the poor in spirit; theirs is the kingdom of God. Blest are they, full of sorrow; they shall be consoled.

(Refrain) Rejoice, and be glad! Blessed are you, holy are you! Rejoice and be glad! Yours is the kingdom of God!

Blest are they, the lowly ones: they shall inherit the earth. Blest are they, who hunger and thirst; they shall have their fill. (To Refrain)

Blest are they, who show mercy; mercy shall be theirs. Blest are they, the pure of heart; they shall see God! (To Refrain)

Blest are they, who seek peace; they are the children of God. Blest are they who suffer in faith; the glory of God is theirs. (To Refrain)

Blest are you, who suffer hate, all because of me. Rejoice and be glad, yours is the kingdom; shine for all to see. (To Refrain)

Recessional Hymn: I Sing the Mighty Power of God

I sing the mighty pow’r of God, that made the mountains rise, That spread the flowing seas abroad, and built the lofty skies. I sing the wisdom that ordained the sun to rule the day; The moon shines full at His command, and all the stars obey.

I sing the goodness of the Lord, who filled the earth with food, Who formed the creatures with his Word, and then pronounced them good. Lord, how Thy wonders are displayed, where’er I turn my eye, If I survey the ground I tread, or gaze upon the sky.

There’s not a plant or flow’r below, but makes Thy glories known, And clouds arise, and tempests blow, by order from Thy throne; While all that borrows life from Thee is ever in Thy care; And everywhere that I can be, Thou, God, art present there.
