Entrance Hymn: Gather Us In

Here in this place new light is streaming, now is the darkness vanished away See in this space our fears and our dreamings, Brought here to you in the light of this day Gather us in, the lost and forsaken Gather us in, the blind and the lame Call to us now and we shall awaken, We shall arise at the sound of our name

We are the young, our lives are a mystery, We are the old who yearn for your face We have been sung throughout all of history, Called to be light to the whole human race Gather us in, the rich and the haughty, Gather us in, the proud and the strong Give us a heart so meek and so lowly, Give us the courage to enter the song.

Here we will take the wine and the water, Here we will take the bread of new birth Here you shall call your sons and your daughters, Call us anew to be salt for the earth Give us to drink the wine of compassion, Give us to eat the bread that is you Nourish us well and teach us to fashion, Lives that are holy and hearts that are true

Offertory Hymn: Jesus Meek and Humble

Jesus, meek and humble, heaven’s gift to earth, word from word among us, spoken from the first. Song of our salvation, rising from the fall. Jesus, meek and humble, heaven’s hope for all.

Jesus, meek and humble teaching by the shore, casting nets to gather broken, lame, and poor. Living bread you offer, hungry we receive. Jesus, meek and humble, teach us to believe.

Jesus, meek and humble, mercy born of pain on the Cross we fashioned from our sin and shame, God himself providing Lamb and sacrifice. Jesus, meek and humble, in this death is life.

Jesus, meek and humble, by the break of day heaven now awaking, love has made a way. Light from light embracing all that once was dark. Jesus, meek and humble, lead us to your heart.

Communion Hymn: You are Mine

I will come to you in the silence, I will lift you from all your fear. You will hear My voice

I claim you as My choice, Be still, and know I am near.

I am hope for all who are hopeless, I am eyes for all who long to see

In the shadows of the night, I will be your light Come and rest in Me.

(Refrain) Do not be afraid, I am with you, I have called you each by name

Come and follow Me, I will bring you home, I love you and you are mine.

I am strength for all the despairing, Healing for the ones who dwell in shame

All the blind will see, the lame will all run free, And all will know My name.

I am the Word that leads all to freedom, I am the peace the world cannot give

I will call your name, embracing all your pain, Stand up, now, walk, and live.

Recessional Hymn: All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name

All hail the power of Jesus’ name! Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem to crown him Lord of all; Bring forth the royal diadem to crown him Lord of all.

Hail him, you heirs of David’s line whom David Lord did call, the God incarnate, man divine, and crown him Lord of all; The God incarnate, man divine, and crown him Lord of all.

Crown him, you holy saints of God, who from his altar call; Extol him in whose path you trod, and crown him Lord of all; Extol him in whose path you trod, and crown him Lord of all.
