Song Sheet June 16th
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 Divine, All Loves Excelling
Love divine, all loves excelling, joy of heaven to earth come down! Fix in us your humble dwelling; All your faithful mercies crown. Jesus, source of all compassion, love unbounded, love all pure; Visit us with your salvation, Let your love in us endure.
Come, almighty to deliver; Let us all your life receive; Suddenly return and never, never more your temples leave. Lord, we would be always blessing, serve you as your hosts above, pray, and praise you without ceasing, glory in your precious love.
Finish then your new creation, pure and spotless, gracious Lord; Let us see your great salvation perfectly in you restored. Changed from glory into glory, till in heaven we take our place, till we sing before the almighty, lost in wonder, love, and praise.
Communion Hymn: Seed, Scattered, and Sown
(Refrain) Seed, scattered and sown, wheat, gathered and grown, bread, broken and shared as one, the living bread of God. Vine, fruit of the land, wine, work of our hands, one cup that is shared by all; the living cup, the living bread of God.
Is not the bread we break a sharing in our Lord? Is not the cup we bless the blood of Christ outpoured? (To Refrain)
The seed which falls rock will wither and will die. The seed within good ground will flower and have life. (To Refrain)
As wheat upon the hills was gathered and was grown, so may the church of God be gathered into one. (To Refrain)
Recessional Hymn: Let All Things Now Living
Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving to God our Creator triumphantly raise; Who fashioned and made us, protected and stayed us, by guiding us on to the end of our days. God’s banners are over us pure light goes before us, a pillar of fire shining forth in the night; Till shadows have vanished and darkness is banished, as forward we travel from light into light.
His law he enforces, the stars in their courses, the sun in its orbit obediently shine, The hills and the mountains, the rivers and fountains, the depths of the ocean proclaim God divine. We, too should be voicing our love and rejoicing with glad adoration, a song let us raise: Till all things now living unite in thanksgiving, to God in the highest, hosanna and praise.
