  2. 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.

  3. CH4 197 As We Are Gathered

    1. As we are gathered, Jesus is here,
      one with each other, Jesus is here;
      joined by the Spirit, washed in the blood,
      part of the body, the Church of God.
      As we are gathered, Jesus is here,
      one with each other, Jesus is here.

  5. CH4 468 Son of God, Eternal Saviour

    1. Son of God, eternal Saviour,
      source of life and truth and grace,
      Son of Man, whose birth incarnate
      hallows all our human race;
      great High Priest who, throned in glory,
      for your own will ever plead,
      fill us with your love and pity,
      heal our wrongs, and help our need.

    2. Lord, as you have lived for others,
      so may we for others live;
      freely have your gifts been granted,
      freely may your servants give.
      Yours the gold and yours the silver,
      yours the wealth of sea and land,
      we but stewards of your bounty
      held in trust at your command.

    3. Come, Lord Jesus, reign among us,
      King of Love, and Prince of Peace;
      hush the storm of strife and passion,
      bid its cruel discords cease.
      Yours the prayer, and yours the purpose,
      that your people should be one:
      grant from heaven, our hope’s fruition:
      here on earth your will be done.

  7. CH4 259 Beauty for Brokenness

    1. Beauty for brokenness
      Hope for despair
      Lord, in the suffering
      This is our prayer
      Bread for the children
      Justice, joy, peace
      Sunrise to sunset
      Your kingdom increase!

    2. Shelter for fragile lives
      Cures for their ills
      Work for the craftsman
      Trade for their skills
      Land for the dispossessed
      Rights for the weak
      Voices to plead the cause
      Of those who can't speak

      God of the poor
      Friend of the weak
      Give us compassion we pray
      Melt our cold hearts
      Let tears fall like rain
      Come, change our love
      From a spark to a flame

    3. Refuge from cruel wars
      Havens from fear
      Cities for sanctuary
      Freedoms to share
      Peace to the killing-fields
      Scorched earth to green
      Christ for the bitterness
      His cross for the pain

      God of the poor
      Friend of the weak
      Give us compassion we pray
      Melt our cold hearts
      Let tears fall like rain
      Come, change our love
      From a spark to a flame

    4. Rest for the ravaged earth
      Oceans and streams
      Plundered and poisoned
      Our future, our dreams
      Lord, end our madness
      Carelessness, greed
      Make us content with
      The things that we need

      God of the poor
      Friend of the weak
      Give us compassion we pray
      Melt our cold hearts
      Let tears fall like rain
      Come, change our love
      From a spark to a flame

    5. Lighten our darkness
      Breathe on this flame
      Until your justice
      Burns brightly again
      Until the nations
      Learn of your ways
      Seek your salvation
      And bring you their praise

      God of the poor
      Friend of the weak
      Give us compassion we pray
      Melt our cold hearts
      Let tears fall like rain
      Come, change our love
      From a spark to a flame

  10. CH4 533 Will You Come and Follow Me?

    1. Will you come and follow me if I but call your name?
      Will you go where you don't know and never be the same?
      Will you let my love be shown? Will you let my name be known,
      will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?

    2. Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name?
      Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same?
      Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare?
      Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?

    3. Will you let the blinded see if I but call your name?
      Will you set the prisoners free and never be the same?
      Will you kiss the leper clean and do such as this unseen,
      and admit to what I mean in you and you in me?

    4. Will you love the "you" you hide if I but call your name?
      Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same?
      Will you use the faith you've found to reshape the world around,
      through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?

    5. Lord your summons echoes true when you but call my name.
      Let me turn and follow you and never be the same.
      In Your company I'll go where Your love and footsteps show.
      Thus I'll move and live and grow in you and you in me.
