Entrance Hymn
Come To The Water
Come to the water, you who are thirsty!
Though you have nothing, I bid you come!
And be filled with the goodness I have to offer
Come! Listen! Live!
Why spend your money on what cannot fill
The emptiness deep in your heart?
Listen to my word and you will enjoy
Goodness and peace in your heart!
Come to the water ...
Just as the heavens are high above earth;
My ways and thoughts beyond you!
Call me Father and I know I am near;
I will be Father to you!
Come to the water ...
Just as the rain falls to water the earth;
Just as a seed becomes bread
My word upon you can never return
Until my longing is filled!
Come to the water ...

Offertory Hymn
Here I Am Lord
I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard My people cry,
All who dwell in dark and sin,
My hand will save.
I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?
Refrain
Here I am Lord, It is I Lord.
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.
I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them.
They turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone,
Give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my word to them.
Whom shall I send?
I, the Lord of wind and flame,
I will tend the poor and lame,
I will set a feast for them.
My hand will save.
Finest bread I will provide,
Till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?
Thanksgiving Hymn
Gentle As Silence
O the love of my Lord is the essence,
of all that I love here on earth.
All the beauty I see
he has given to me
and his giving is gentle as silence.
Every day, every hour, every moment
have been blessed by the strength of his love.
At the turn of each tide
he is there at my side,
and his touch is as gentle as silence.
There've been times when I've turned from his presence,
and I've walked other paths, other ways.
But I've called on his name
in the dark of my shame,
and his mercy was gentle as silence.
Recessional Hymn
Amazing Grace
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me,
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see.
T'was grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved,
How precious did that grace appear,
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come:
‘tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His word my hope secures;
He will my shield and portion be,
As long as life endures
Yea, when this heart and flesh shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
