Prayer and Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power, and the glory
for ever and ever.
Amen.

MP 463 May the mind of Christ my Saviour
-
May the mind of Christ my Saviour
live in me from day to day,
by His love and power controlling
all I do and say.
-
May the word of God dwell richly
in my heart from hour to hour,
so that all may see I triumph
only through His power.
-
May the peace of God my Father
rule my life in everything,
that I may be calm to comfort
sick and sorrowing.
-
May the love of Jesus fill me,
as the waters fill the sea;
Him exalting, self abasing,
this is victory.
-
May I run the race before me,
strong and brave to face the foe,
looking only unto Jesus,
as I onward go

MP 37 As the deer pants for the water
-
As the deer pants for the water,
so my soul longs after You.
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.
You alone are my strength, my shield,
to You alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.
-
I want You more than gold or silver,
only You can satisfy.
You alone are the real joy-giver
and the apple of my eye.
You alone are my strength, my shield,
to You alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.
-
You’re my friend
and You’re my brother,
even though You are a king.
I love You more than any other,
so much more than anything.
You alone are my strength, my shield,
to You alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart’s desire
and I long to worship You.

MP 302 I want to walk with Jesus Christ
-
I want to walk with Jesus Christ,
all the days I live of this life on earth;
to give to Him complete control
of body and of soul.
-
Follow Him, follow Him,
yield your life to Him –
He has conquered death,
He is King of kings;
accept the joy which He gives to those
who yield their lives to Him.
-
I want to learn to speak to Him,
to pray to Him, confess my sin,
to open my life and let Him in,
for joy will then be mine.
Follow Him, follow Him ...
-
I want to learn to speak of Him -
my life must show that He lives in me;
my deeds, my thoughts, my words must speak
all of His love for me.
Follow Him, follow Him ...
-
I want to learn to read His word,
for this is how I know the way
to live my life as pleases Him,
in holiness and joy.
Follow Him, follow Him ...
-
O Holy Spirit of the Lord,
enter now into this heart of mine;
take full control of my selfish will
and make me wholly Thine!
Follow Him, follow Him ...
