Entrance Hymn

Rejoice The Lord Is King!

Verse 1
Rejoice, the Lord is King:
Your Lord and King adore!
Mortals give thanks and sing,
And triumph evermore.
Lift up your hearts,
Lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!Verse 2
The Lord the Savior, reigns,
The God of truth and love;
When He had purged our stains,
He took his seat above;
Lift up your hearts,
Lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!Verse 4
Rejoice in glorious hope!
Our Lord and judge shall come
And take His servants up
To their eternal home:
Lift up your hearts,
Lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

Shepard of Souls

Verse 1
Shepherd of souls, refresh and bless
Your chosen pilgrim flock
With manna in the wilderness,
With water from the rock.Verse 2
We would not live by bread alone,
But by your word of grace,
In strength of which we travel on
To our abiding place.Verse 3
Be known to us in breaking bread,
But do not then depart;
Saviour, abide with us, and spread
Your table in our heart.Verse 4
Lord, sup with us in love divine;
Your body and your blood,
That living bread, that heav'nly wine,
Be our immortal food.

Recessional Hymn

Come Lord Jesus

Verse 1
When the darkness closes in, Come, Lord Jesus!
Courage fails and hopes grow dim, Lord Jesus, come!
Clear the shadows from our sight; set our troubled world aright
Fill our eyes with radiant light. Lord Jesus come!Verse 2
Wise and foolish, still we wait. Come Lord Jesus!
Is our Bridegroom at the gate? Lord Jesus, come!
At his voice, our hearts have stirred, listening for his healing word,
Confident our cries are heard. Lord Jesus, come!Verse 3
Come to us, O Living Lord. Come, Lord Jesus!
Come with justice like a sword. Lord Jesus, come!
Come in word and wine and bread; come again that we poor be fed.
Raise your servants from the dead. Lord Jesus, come!
