Song Sheet February 8th

Entrance: Holy God We Praise Thy Name

Holy God, we praise thy name; Lord of all, we bow before thee; all on earth thy scepter claim; all in heaven above adore thee. Infinite thy vast domain; everlasting is thy reign. Infinite thy vast domain; everlasting is thy reign.

Hark the glad celestial hymn, angel choirs above are raising; cherubim and seraphim, in unceasing chorus praising, fill the heavens with sweet accord: Holy, holy, holy Lord. Fill the heavens with sweet accord: Holy, holy, holy Lord

Holy Father, Holy Son, Holy Spirit: three we name thee, while in essence only one; undivided God we claim thee, and adoring bend the knee while we own the mystery. And adoring bend the knee while we own the mystery.

Offertory: Christ Be Our Light

Longing for light, we wait in darkness. Longing for truth, we turn to you. Make us your own, your holy people, Light for the world to see.

(Refrain) Christ, be our light! Shine in our hearts. Shine through the darkness. Christ, be our light! Shine in your church gathered today.

Longing for peace, our world is troubled. Longing for hope, many despair. Your word alone has pow'r to save us. Make us your living voice. (To Refrain)

Longing for food, many are hungry. Longing for water, many still thirst. Make us your bread, broken for others, Shared until all are fed. (To Refrain)

Longing for shelter, many are homeless. Longing for warmth, many are cold. Make us your building, sheltering others, Walls made of living stone. (To Refrain)

Many the gifts, many the people, Many the hearts that yearn to belong. Let us be servants to one another, Making your kingdom come. (To Refrain)

Communion: Take and Eat

(Refrain) Take and eat; take and eat: this is my body given up for you. Take and drink; take and drink: this is my blood given up for you.

I am the Word that spoke and light was made; I am the seed that died to be re-born; I am the bread that comes from heaven above; I am the vine that fills your cup with joy. (To Refrain)

I am the way that leads the exile home; I am the truth that sets the captive free; I am the life that raises up the dead; I am your peace, true peace my gift to you. (To Refrain)

I am the Lamb that takes away your sin; I am the gate that guards you night and day; You are my flock; you know the shepherd's voice; You are my own; your ransom is my blood. (To Refrain)

I am the cornerstone that God has laid; A chosen stone and precious in his eyes; You are God’s dwelling place, on me you rest; Like living stones, a temple for God’s praise. (To Refrain)

I am the light that came into the world; I am the light that darkness cannot hide; I am the morning star that never sets; Lift up your face, in you my light will shine. (To Refrain)

I am the first and last, the living one; I am the Lord who died that you might live; I am the bridegroom, this my wedding song; You are my bride, come to the marriage feast. (To Refrain)

Recessional: A Mighty Fortress

A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing; our helper he, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing. For still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe; his craft and power are great, and armed with cruel hate, on earth is not his equal.

Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing, were not the Savior on our side, the Man of God's own choosing. Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same; and he must win the battle.
