A lamp for our steps has been given,
A light has been set on a hill;
God's Word in its truth may be trusted,
By all who surrender their will.
To order the chaos of darkness,
Give hope in the midst of despair,
To make of our lives new creations
And lighten the burdens we bear.
Lord, grant to us eyes ever watchful,
And ears ever open to hear,
The Word that in love you are speaking,
The Word that dispels all our fear.
Your death-resurrection has claimed us,
But pardon our flesh that is weak;
You know that our spirits are willing,
Give strength with the Word that you speak.
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
Tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
When we've been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we'd first begun.
As we gather may Your Spirit work within us,
As we gather may we glorify Your name
Knowing well that as our hearts being to worship
We'll be blest because we came (x2)
Eastertide
I saw living water flowing from the Temple,
Blood and water flowing from His open side,
Bringing us the life of God and His salvation
And the people sang in joyful praise:
Allelu, alleluia!
We are people born of water and the Spirit,
We are people come to celebrate God's love,
We have come to heart the Word,
We have come to share the bread,
We have come to sing our praises to God above.
We are sons and daughters of the resurrection,
Halleluiah is the song we sing with joy,
All the praises we proclaim,
Go to God in Jesus' name
Through His cross He has become our great Amen.
We are folk who show concern for one another.
Yes, we know that God has given gifts to share.
Whether rich or whether poor,
Down and out or blest with more,
We are gathered here to tell you how much we care.
Cause me to come to your river, O Lord. (x3)
Cause me to come, cause me to drink, cause me to live.
Speak Lord Your Word, I am listening to You. (x3)
Speak to my mind, speak to my will, speak to my heart.
Feed me, O Lord, with Your body and blood. (x3)
Strengthen my mind, strengthen my will, strengthen my heart.
Children of God, hear His holy Word!
Gather round the table of the Lord!
Eat his body, drink his blood
And we’ll sing a song of love,
Allelu, allelu, allelu, alleluia.
Brothers, sisters, we are one,
And our life has just begun
In the Spirit we are young: we can live forever.
Shout together to the Lord
Who has promised our reward:
Happiness a hundred fold and we’ll live forever.
Christ be with me, Christ within me,
Christ behind me, Christ before me,
Christ beside me, Christ to win me,
Christ to comfort and restore me;
Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ in quiet, Christ in danger.
Christ the heart of all that love me,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger;
And to Him be glory forever and ever;
and to Him be glory forever. Amen.
Come in pilgrim, lay your burden down,
We're all comrades as we travel on the way,
We share a common gift
our covenant in Christ,
and we are going to celebrate his love today.
We will sing and celebrate his love today.
When we come to join in prayer
let us first confess,
we have looked too much to ourselves
we have looked too much to ourselves
and loved each other less
Hear the word proclaimed with pow'r
to search the hearts of all
We shall make its meaning new
By responding to its call.
We are one with Christ our Lord
As he offers his Father’s praise,
As he offers his Father’s praise,
We bring gifts: our lives and love,
Seeking God’s will each day.
Seeking God’s will each day.
Come, priestly people, God's kingly race,
Dedicated nation, people of God,
Come and praise your Lord.
We sing to you,
O Christ, beloved Son of the Father,
We give you praise,
O Wisdom everlasting and Word of God.
We sing to you,
O Son born of Mary the Virgin,
We give you praise,
Our Brother born to heal us, our saving Lord.
We sing to you,
O light bringing us out of darkness,
We give you praise,
O guiding Light, who shows us the way to heaven.
We sing to you,
Messiah foretold by the prophets,
We give you praise,
O Son of David and Son of Abraham.
Draw me, O Lord, to Your Heart of Love
Draw me, O Lord, to Your Love
Draw me, O Lord, to Your boundless Love
But draw me, draw me, my God.
Draw me, Draw me, Draw me to Yourself
Draw me, Draw me, my heart, Lord, was made for You.
Draw me O Lord, to Your wounded side
Opened for me there to hide
And let me drink from the fount of Life
That I may thirst never more.
You have the words of Eternal Life
You are the One sent from God;
Do feed me, Lord, with the Bread of Life
That I may Hunger no more.
For God so loved the world,
That He gave us his only Son.
Whoever trusts in Him,
Shall obtain eternal life.
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
All your mind, all your strength.
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart,
You shall love your neighbour as yourself.
Tis by grace you have been saved through faith in Christ,
Not by works, lest you boast.
Even when your trespasses had rendered you dead,
You were made alive in Jesus Christ.
As the Lord has pardoned you, so must you forgive:
Let his peace rule your heart,
He has nailed your trespasses and sins to the cross.
So give thanks to God through Jesus Christ.
And I pray that Jesus Christ may dwell in your hearts,
Through your faith, through your love.
May his Spirit strengthen you with power and might.
May your lives be rooted in love.
Coda:
Whoever trusts in Him,
Shall obtain eternal life.
From the depths I call to You, O Lord,
Listen to my cry
Lord, in compassion, listen to my pleading,
Listen to my cry,
If You refuse, Lord, to forgive your people's sins,
We shall surely die.
So I am waiting, waiting for Him patiently,
Hoping in His word,
More than the watchman waiting for the dawn to come
I await the Lord.
So let us trust him, for in Him is mercy;
He the Lord, is kind.
He gives us pardon, generous redemption,
Casts our sins behind.
Go forth and proclaim the Good News
Making all nations my disciples, alleluia, amen.
O sing a new song to the Lord,
O sing to the Lord, all the earth,
O sing to the Lord, bless his name,
Proclaim his help day by day,
Tell among the nations his glory.
And his wonders among all the peoples.
The Lord is great and worthy of praise,
To be feared above all gods.
The gods of the heathens are naught.
It was the Lord who made the heavens,
His are majesty and state and power,
And splendour in his holy place.
Bring an offering and enter his courts,
And worship the Lord in his temple.
O earth, tremble before him.
Proclaim to the nations: God is King,
The world he made firm in its place;
He will judge the peoples in fairness.
Let the heavens rejoice and earth be glad,
Let the sea and all within it thunder praise,
Let the land and all it bears rejoice,
All the trees of the wood shout for joy,
At the presence of the Lord, for he comes,
He comes to rule the earth.
With justice he will rule the world,
He will judge the peoples with his truth.
Give praise to the Father almighty,
To his Son, Jesus Christ the Lord,
To the Spirit who dwells in our hearts,
Both now and for ever. Amen.
Go in peace to be Christ's Body,
Go in peace, proclaim his Word.
You have shared his dying and his rising:
Go in peace, Christ lives in you.
But, our treasure is in earthen vessels,
Proving we are weak and need God's strength.
Bearing in our flesh the death of Jesus,
We must show his life at work in us.
Though our outer nature may seem wasted
Daily is the inner self renewed.
For the love of Jesus Christ controls us,
Since we know that one man died for all,
Go, go into the world tell them I’m alive
Go into the streets, tell them that I live,
Oh! that I live in you.
Go, go into the world, claim it for your King,
Go into the streets, dry your people’s tears,
Oh! making all things new.
I tell you now, “Go proclaimâ€
I give to you my Spirit’s flame.
He is at work, inside of You,
To overcome all the powers of darkness.
Be not afraid, speak my Word,
You’re not alone, I’m always there.
Go tell the world, “Repent, believe!â€
The time is ripe and the kingdom is here.
God's Spirit is in my heart
He has called me and set me apart.
This is what I have to do,
What I have to do
He sent me to give the Good News to the poor
Tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more
Tell blind people that they can see
And set the down trodden free
And go tell everyone the news that the
Kingdom of God has come
And go tell everyone
The news That God's Kingdom has come.
Just as the Father sent me
So I'm sending you out to be,
My witnesses throughout the world,
The whole of the world
Don't carry a load in your pack,
You don't need two shirts on your back
A workman can earn his own keep,
Can earn his own keep
Don't worry what you have to say,
Don't worry because on that day
God's Spirit will speak in your heart
Will speak in your heart
Good news, Good news,
Go proclaim to all the Good News, Good News,
Go and tell the world "With Jesus we have
Risen, alleluia, death shall reign no more".
We have broken bread in his memory.
We have drunk his wine.
We have shared the meal of sincerity,
Now we walk in love.
We impart a secret which God decreed
Ere the world began,
That a grain of wheat should fall and die
If it must bear fruit.
Listen to the folly of what we preach,
Take heed and believe.
All we know is nothing but Jesus,
And him crucified.
CODA:
Jesus shall die no more, no more.
Great things happen when God mixes with us (x2)
Great and beautiful, wonderful things,
Great things happen when God mixes with us.
Some find life, some find peace; some people also find joy.
Some see things as they never could before
And some people find that they can now begin to trust.
Some find health, some find hope; some people even find joy.
Some see themselves as they never could before
And some people find that they can now begin to live.
Some find peace, some are disturbed; some people even find joy.
Some see their lives as they never could before
And some people find that they must now begin to change.
Greater Love and Friendship has no man than this
That he die for others, give his life for all.
No more are you servants; I have called you friends,
All my Father told me, I made known to you
Without you I am nothing, my weakness needs your strength,
So speak, Lord, to your servants, I’m waiting for your word
Go and build my kingdom, pluck up and break down,
Speak what I command you; I shall be with you,
No you did not choose me , I appointed you.
Go bear fruit in plenty, fruit that should abide.
Have you seen my people, have you heard their cry?
Do you know their suffering? Can you let them die?
Break the unjust fetter, set the captive free,
Share bread with the hungry, make the blind to see.

I'll light you with my Spirit's fire to burn as my love's flame.
I call you from your sisters and send you in my name.
Tell them what I told to you, my words will be your own.
They'll find me in the news you bring
As you make my secrets known.
Bring me all they have and need, because my Father cares.
Bring back his blessing and his peace
And the food of life he shares.
Be a shepherd to my flock and love as I have done.
So they can see what brother/sister means
And can feel that they are one.
Let me sing of your law, O my God;
Let your love come upon your people.
Through your own word, Lord give us life;
In your Holy keeping, happy is my soul.
I have made known to you my ways;
You have heard my pleading;
Now teach me your laws.
Show me the way to keep your law;
Let your holy precepts dwell within my mind.
Deep in my soul my sorrow lies;
Ever keep your promise, let my heart be glad.
O take me far from evil ways,
And in your great mercy, guide me in your paths.
Within your law I choose to live;
In the paths of wisdom, I walk evermore.
My heart is strong, my joy is full;
Following your law, Lord, freely do I walk.
Praise to the Father and to the Son;
Glory to the Spirit, now and evermore.
Lightened by the word we've heard,
to the world we all must go,
Nourished by the bread of life, to the world we go.
Chorus.
Altogether in one love and faith,
Seeking ever to be true,
You will guide us on the path,
O Lord, Of eternal peace.
With our joys and with our cares,
to the world we all must go,
Weighed by toil but raised by hope, to the world we go.
Chorus
Joined in peace and unity,
to the world we all must go,
Gathered in your charity, to the world we go.
Chorus.
Chorus
Oh the Word of my Lord, Deep within my being.
Oh the Word of my Lord, You have filled my mind.
Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you thru and thru
I chose you to be mine before you left your mother’s side
I called to you my child to be my sign.
Chorus
I know that you are very young, but I will make you strong
I will fill you with my word, and you will travel through the land
Fulfilling my command, which you have learned.

And everywhere you are to go, My hand will follow you
You will not be alone,
In all the danger that you fear
You’ll find me very near, Your words my own.
Chorus
With all my strength you will be filled
You will destroy and build,
For that is my design,
You will create and overthrow,
Reap and harvest I will sow, Your word is mine.
Chorus
Put on the armour of Jesus Christ,
Build up your strength in the Lord.
Gird yourself with his truth, carry faith as a shield,
The Good News a sword in your hand.
Let your loins be girt and your lamps alight,
Waiting for the day when the Master comes.
May he find you watching when he returns:
He'll come like a thief in the night.
If we die with him, we shall live with him.
If we now endure, we shall reign with him,
If we are not faithful, he still keeps faith
For he can't be false to himself.
The more we hear of the Word of God,
The better we will know Him.
Open our minds and our hearts, O Lord,
Send us your Spirit anew.
Open our minds and our hearts, O Father,
We want to learn more about you.
The more we hear of the Word of God,
The better we will love Him.
The more we hear of the Word of God,
The better we will serve Him.
