Entrance Hymn


Sing of the Lord's Goodness

Verse 1
Sing of the Lord’s goodness Father of all wisdom,
Come to him and bless his name.
Mercy he has shown us, his love is forever,
Faithful to the end of days.
Refrain
Come, then, all you nations,
Sing of your Lord’s goodness,
Melodies of praise and thanks to God.
Ring out the Lord’s glory,
Praise him with your music,
Worship him and bless his name.
Verse 2
Power he has wielded, honor is his garment
Risen from the snares of death.
His word he has spoken, one bread he has broken,
New life he now gives to all.
Refrain
Come, then, all you nations,
Sing of your Lord’s goodness,
Melodies of praise and thanks to God.
Ring out the Lord’s glory,
Praise him with your music,
Worship him and bless his name.

On the Paten

Verse 1
On the paten with the Host
I offer up my lowly heart:
All my life, my deeds, my thoughts
Thine shall be as mine Thou art.
Verse 2
In the chalice let me be
A drop of water mingled there.
Lost O Jesus in Thy Love
Thy great sacrifice I share.
Verse 3
All today and ev'ry day
O Jesus let me live in thee,
So that I no longer live
But that thou may'st live through me.

The Servant Song

Verse 1
Will you let me be your servant
Let me be as Christ to you
Pray that I may have the grace to
Let you be my servant too.

We are pilgrims on a journey
We are trav-'lers on the road
We are here to help each other
Walk the mile and bear the load.
Verse 3
I will hold the Christ-light for you
In the nighttime of your fear
I will hold my hand out to you
Speak the peace you long to hear.
