Entrance Hymn: How Firm a Foundation
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord, Is laid for your faith in His excellent word! What more can He say than to you He hath said— To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled.
Fear not, I am with thee, oh, be not dismayed, For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid; I’ll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by My gracious, omnipotent hand.
"When through the deep waters I call you to go, The rivers of woe shall not you overflow; For I will be with you, your troubles to bless, And sanctify to you your deepest distress.
The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose, I will not, I will not desert to its foes: That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, I’ll never, no never, no never forsake!
Offertory Hymn: The Summons
Will you come and follow me if I but call your name? Will you go where you don’t know and never be the same? Will you let my love be shown? Will you let my name be known, will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?
Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name? Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same? Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare? Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?
Will you let the blinded see if I but call your name? Will you set the prisoners free and never be the same? Will you kiss the leper clean and do such as this unseen, and admit to what I mean in you and you in me?
Will you love the “you” you hide if I but call your name? Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same? Will you use the faith you’ve found to reshape the world around, Through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?
Lord your summons echoes true when you but call my name. Let me turn and follow you and never be the same. In Your company I’ll go where Your love and footsteps show. Thus I’ll move and live and grow in you and you in me.
Communion Hymn: Behold the Lamb of God
Those who were in the dark are thankful for the sunlight; we who live, we who die are grateful for his gift, thankful for his love.
(Refrain) Behold, behold the lamb of God. All who eat, all who drink shall live; and all, all who dwell in God shall come to know his glory.
Peaceful now, those whose hearts are blessed with understanding of the wheat, of the wine united with his word and the love we share. (To Refrain)
Gentle one, Child of God, join with us at this table. Bless our lives; nourish all who hunger for this feast; shelter them with peace. (To Refrain)
Lord of all, give us light. Deliver us from evil. Make us one; be our shield. Make still the winds that blow; cradle us with love. (To Refrain)
Recessional Hymn: Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; He is trampling out the vintage where
the grapes of wrath are stored; He has loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword: His truth is marching on.
(Refrain) Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! Glory! Glory! Hallelujah! His truth is marching on.
I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps; They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps; I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps; His day is marching on.(To Refrain)
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat; He is sifting out the hearts of all before his judgement seat; O be swift, my soul, to answer him; be jubilant, my feet! Our God is marching on. (To Refrain)
