Welcome and Intimations

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 583 Safe in the shadow of the Lord

Tune: Richmond

1. Safe in the shadow of the Lord
   beneath His hand and power,
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   my fortress and my tower.
   

2. My hope is set on God alone
   though Satan spreads his snare;
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   to keep me in His care.
   

3. From fears and phantoms of the night,
   from foes about my way,
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   by darkness as by day.
   

4. His holy angels keep my feet
   secure from every stone;
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   and unafraid go on.
   

5. Strong in the everlasting name,
   and in my Father’s care,
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   who hears and answers prayer.
   

6. Safe in the shadow of the Lord,
   possessed by love divine,
   I trust in Him,
   I trust in Him,
   and meet His love with mine.

1. Psalm 27

Children’s Message

MP 456 Make me a channel of your peace

1. Make me a channel of Your peace.
   Where there is hatred
   let me bring Your love;
   where there is injury,
   Your pardon, Lord;
   and where there’s doubt,
   true faith in You.
   

   O Master, grant that I may never seek
   so much to be consoled as to console;
   to be understood as to understand;
   to be loved, as to love with all my soul.
   

2. Make me a channel of Your peace.
   Where there’s despair in life
   let me bring hope;
   where there is darkness,
   only light;
   and where there’s sadness,
   ever joy.
   

   O Master, grant that I may never seek
   so much to be consoled as to console;
   to be understood as to understand;
   to be loved, as to love with all my soul.
   

3. Make me a channel of Your peace.
   It is in pardoning
   that we are pardoned,
   in giving to all men
   that we receive;
   and in dying
   that we’re born to eternal life.

Meditation

MP 712 O soul are you weary and troubled

1. O soul, are you weary and troubled?
   No light in the darkness you see?
   There’s light for a look at the Saviour,
   and life more abundant and free!
   

   Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
   look full in His wonderful face;
   and the things of earth
   will grow strangely dim
   in the light of His glory and grace.
   

2. Through death into life everlasting
   He passed and we follow Him there;
   over us sin no more hath dominion.
   for more than conquerors we are!
   

   Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
   look full in His wonderful face;
   and the things of earth
   will grow strangely dim
   in the light of His glory and grace.
   

3. His word shall not fail you He promised;
   believe Him, and all will be well:
   then go to a world that is dying,
   His perfect salvation to tell.
   

   Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
   look full in His wonderful face;
   and the things of earth
   will grow strangely dim
   in the light of His glory and grace.

   let Thy blessing fall on me.

   all to Thee, my blessed Saviour,
   I surrender all.
   

5. All to Jesus I surrender,
   now I feel the sacred flame;
   O the joy of full salvation!
   Glory, glory to His name!
   

   I surrender all, I surrender all,
   all to Thee, my blessed Saviour,
   I surrender all.
