    GATHERING SONG: ELW 834

    Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

     

    Immortal, invisible, God only wise,

    in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,

    most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,

    almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise!

     

    Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,

    nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;

    thy justice like mountains high soaring above

    thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.

     

    To all, life thou givest, to both great and small;

    in all life thou livest, the true life of all;

    we blossom and flourish like leaves on the tree,

    and wither and perish, but naught changeth thee.

     

    Thou reignest in glory; thou dwellest in light;

    thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;

    all laud we would render; oh, help us to see

    'tis only the splendour of light hideth thee!

    God, Be the Love to Search and Keep Me

     

    God, be the love to search and keep me;

    God, be the prayer to move my voice;

    God, be the strength to now uphold me:

    O Christ, surround me;

    O Christ, surround me.

     

    Bind to myself the name of Holy,

    great cloud of witnesses enfold;

    prophets, apostles, angels witness:

    O Christ, surround me;

    O Christ, surround me.

     

    Brightness of sun and glow of moonlight,

    flashing of lightning, strength of wind,

    depth of the sea to soil of planet:

    O Christ, surround me;

    O Christ, surround me.

     

    Walking behind to hem my journey,

    going ahead to light my way,

    and from beneath, above, and all ways:

    O Christ, surround me;

    O Christ, surround me.

     

    Christ in the eyes of all who see me,

    Christ in the ears that hear my voice,

    Christ in the hearts of all who know me:

    O Christ, surround me;

    O Christ, surround me.

    SANCTUS (p 190)

     

    Holy, holy, holy Lord,

    Lord God of love and life,

    heaven and earth are full of your glory

    full of your glory.

    Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

    THE LORD’S PRAYER (Contemporary)

     

    INVITATION TO COMMUNION

    LAMB OF GOD (page 191)

     

    COMMUNION SONG 1:
    Christ Lives in You

     

    Christ lives in you,

    And He is your hope

    For sharing in God’s glory.

     

    Without the ember the fire dies,

    Without roots the tree won’t grow.

    Wrap yourselves ‘round empty gains,

    You’ll have emptiness to show.

    Like the sea reveals a buried stone,

    At the turning of the tide    .

    The heart that seeks will surely find,

    God’s love there inside.

    And the mystery is…

     

    Christ lives in you,

    And He is your hope

    For sharing in God’s glory.

    Christ lives in you,

    A beacon of hope

    For living out your story

     

    As easy as the water dances,

    Down the mountainside.

    Fear not the leap that brings you to

    Walk by Jesus side.

    And as easy as a budding flower,

    Opens to the morning sun.

    Feel the love in the light and warmth

    Of the risen One.

    And the mystery is…..

     

    Christ lives in you,

    And He is your hope

    For sharing in God’s glory.

    Christ lives in you,

    A fountain of hope

    For living out your story

     

    Christ lives in you,

    Forever your hope

    For sharing in God’s glory.

    Christ lives in you,

    A tower of hope

    For living out your story.

    COMMUNION SONG 2: ELW 407

    O Living Breath of God

     

    O living Breath of God,

    wind at the beginning upon the waters;

    O living Breath of God,

    bearing the creation to wondrous birth;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God,

    Holy Spirit, breathe in us as we pray.

     

    O living Breath of God, by whose pow'r

    the Son came to birth among us;

    O living Breath of God,

    who to the creation gives life anew;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God,

    Holy Spirit, breathe in us as we pray.

     

    O living Breath of God,

    bearing us to life through baptismal waters;

    O living Breath of God,

    sighing with creation for freedom's birth;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God,

    Holy Spirit, breathe in us as we pray.

    SENDING SONG:
    The Same Love

     

    You choose the humble and raise them high

    You choose the weak and make them strong

    You heal our brokenness inside, And give us life

     

    The same love that set the captives free

    The same love that opened eyes to see

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

    The same God that spread the heavens wide

    The same God that was crucified

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

     

    You take the faithless one aside

    And speak the words "You are mine."

    You call the cynic and the proud,

    “Come to me now.”

     

    The same love that set the captives free

    The same love that opened eyes to see

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

    The same God that spread the heavens wide

    The same God that was crucified

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

     

    Alleluia, alleluia.

     

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

     

    The same love that set the captives free

    The same love that opened eyes to see

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

    The same God that spread the heavens wide

    The same God that was crucified

    Is calling us all by name,

    You are calling us all by name

     

    Alleluia, alleluia

     

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

    You're calling, You're calling,

    You're calling us to the cross

    GATHERING SONG: ELW 526

    God is Here!

     

    God is here! As we your people

    meet to offer praise and prayer,

    may we find in fuller measure

    what it is in Christ we share.

    Here, as in the world around us,

    all our varied skills and arts

    wait the coming of the Spirit

    into open minds and hearts.

     

    Here are symbols to remind us

    of our lifelong need of grace;

    here are table, font, and pulpit;

    here the cross has central place.

    Here in honesty of preaching,

    here in silence, as in speech,

    here, in newness and renewal,

    God the Spirit comes to each.

     

    Here our children find a welcome

    in the Shepherd's flock and fold;

    here as bread and wine are taken,

    Christ sustains us as of old.

     

    Here the servants of the Servant

    seek in worship to explore

    what it means in daily living

    to believe and to adore.

     

    Lord of all, of church and kingdom,

    in an age of change and doubt,

    keep us faithful to the gospel;

    help us work your purpose out.

    Here, in this day's dedication,

    all we have to give, receive;

    we, who cannot live without you,

    we adore you! We believe!

    What a Beautiful Name


    You were the Word at the beginning

    One with God the Lord Most High

    Your hidden glory in creation

    Now revealed in You our Christ

     

    What a beautiful Name it is

    What a beautiful Name it is

    The Name of Jesus Christ my King

    What a beautiful Name it is

    Nothing compares to this

    What a beautiful Name it is

    The Name of Jesus

     

    You didn’t want heaven without us

    So Jesus You brought heaven down

    My sin was great, Your love was greater

    What could separate us now


    What a wonderful Name it is

    What a wonderful Name it is

    The Name of Jesus Christ my King

    What a wonderful Name it is

    Nothing compares to this

    What a wonderful Name it is

    The Name of Jesus

     

    Death could not hold You

    The veil tore before You

    You silence the boast of sin and grave

    The heavens are roaring

    The praise of Your glory

    For You are raised to life again

     

    You have no rival

    You have no equal

    Now and forever God You reign

    Yours is the kingdom

    Yours is the glory

    Yours is the Name above all names

     

    What a powerful Name it is

    What a powerful Name it is

    SENDING SONG:

    You Never Let Go

     

    Even though I walk through the valley

    Of the shadow of death

    Your perfect love is casting out fear

     

    And even when I’m caught in the middle

    Of the storms of this life

    I won’t turn back, I know You are near

     

    And I will fear no evil

    For my God is with me

    And if my God is with me

    Whom then shall I fear?

    Whom then shall I fear?

     

    Oh no, You never let go

    Through the calm and through the storm

    Oh no, You never let go

    In every high and every low

    Oh no, You never let go

    Lord, You never let go of me

     

    I can see a light that is coming

    For the heart that holds on

    A glorious light beyond all compare

    There will be an end to these troubles

    But until that day comes

    We’ll live to know You here on the earth

     

    And I will fear no evil

    For my God is with me

    And if my God is with me

    Whom then shall I fear?

    Whom then shall I fear?

     

    Oh no, You never let go

    Through the calm and through the storm

    Oh no, You never let go

    In every high and every low

    Oh no, You never let go

    Lord, You never let go of me

    You keep on loving

    And You never let go

     

    I can see a light that is coming

    For the heart that holds on

    There will be an end to these troubles

    But until that day comes

    Still I will praise You,

    Still I will praise You

     

    Oh no, You never let go

    Through the calm and through the storm

    Oh no, You never let go

    In every high and every low

    Oh no, You never let go

    Lord, You never let go of me

     

    Oh no, You never let go

    Through the calm and through the storm

    Oh no, You never let go

    In every high and every low

    Oh no, You never let go

    Gracious Spirit Heed our Pleading

     

    Gracious Spirit, heed our pleading,

    fashion us all anew.

    It's your leading that we're needing,

    help us to follow you.

     

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

     

    Come to teach us, come to nourish

    those who believe in Christ.

    Bless the faithful, may they flourish,

    strengthened by grace unpriced.

     

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

     

    Guide our thinking and our speaking

    done in your holy name.

    Motivate all in their seeking,

    freeing from guilt and shame.

     

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

     

    Not mere knowledge, but discernment,

    nor rootless liberty;

    turn disquiet to contentment,

    doubt into certainty.

     

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

     

    Keep us fervent in our witness;

    Un-swayed by earth's allure.

    Ever grant us zealous fitness,

    which you alone assure.

     

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Come, come, come, Holy Spirit, come.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Njoo, njoo, njoo, Roho mwema.

    Goodness Is Stronger than Evil

     

    Goodness is stronger than evil;

    love is stronger than hate;

    light is stronger than darkness;

    life is stronger than death;

    vict'ry is ours, vict'ry is ours,

    through God who loves us.

    Vict'ry is ours, vict'ry is ours,

    through God who loves us.

    COMMUNION SONG 1: ELW 793

    Be Thou My Vision

     

    Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;

    naught be all else to me, save that thou art:

    thou my best thought both by day and by night,

    waking or sleeping, thy presence my light.

     

    Be thou my wisdom, and thou my true word;

    I ever with thee and thou with me, Lord.

    Thou my soul's shelter, and thou my high tow'r,

    raise thou me heav'nward, O Pow'r of my pow'r.

     

    Riches I heed not, nor vain, empty praise,

    thou mine inheritance, now and always:

    thou and thou only, the first in my heart,

    great God of heaven, my treasure thou art.

     

    Light of my soul, after victory won,

    may I reach heaven's joys, O heaven's Sun!

    Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,

    still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

    COMMUNION SONG 2: ELW 407

    O Living Breath of God

     

    O living Breath of God,

    wind at the beginning upon the waters;

    O living Breath of God,

    bearing the creation to wondrous birth;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God, Holy Spirit,

    breathe in us as we pray.

     

    O living Breath of God,

    by whose pow'r the Son came to birth among us;

    O living Breath of God,

    who to the creation gives life anew;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God, Holy Spirit,

    breathe in us as we pray.

     

    O living Breath of God,

     bearing us to life through baptismal waters;

    O living Breath of God,

    sighing with creation for freedom's birth;

     

    Come now, and fill our spirits;

    pour out your gifts abundant.

    O living Breath of God,

    Holy Spirit, breathe in us as we pray.

    SENDING SONG: ELW 697

    Just a Closer Walk with Thee

     

    Just a closer walk with thee,

    grant it, Jesus, is my plea;

    daily walking close to thee,

    let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

     

    I am weak but thou art strong:

    Jesus, keep me from all wrong;

    I'll be satisfied as long

    as I walk, let me walk close to thee.

     

    Just a closer walk with thee,

    grant it, Jesus, is my plea;

    daily walking close to thee,

    let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

     

    Through this world of toil and snares,

    if I falter, Lord, who cares?

    Who with me my burden shares?

    None but thee, dear Lord, none but thee.

     

    Just a closer walk with thee,

    grant it, Jesus, is my plea;

    daily walking close to thee,

    let it be, dear Lord, let it be.

     

    When my feeble life is o'er,

    time for me will be no more;

    guide me gently, safely o'er

    to thy kingdom shore, to thy shore.

     

    Just a closer walk with thee,

    grant it, Jesus, is my plea;

    daily walking close to thee,

    let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
