Offertory Hymn

As Bread That Is Broken

Verse 1
Many hearts are hungry tonight,
Many trapped in darkness yearn for the Light
So many who are far from home,
And many who are lost
O Lord, Your wounded children need
The power of Your crossRefrain
As bread that is broken, use our lives,
As wine that is poured out, a willing sacrifice;
Empower us, Father, to share the love of Christ,
As bread that is broken Lord, use our lives.Verse 2
Help us to begin where we are,
Help us love the people near to our hearts;
Then give our faith a mission field
Wherever You may call,
Lord, love Your world through each of us,
Until we've touched them all.Final Refrain
As bread that is broken, use our lives,
As wine that is poured out, a willing sacrifice;
Empower us, Father, to share the love of Christ,
As bread that is broken, Lord,
As wine that is poured out, Lord,
As bread that is broken, Lord, use our lives.

Communion Hymn

I Heard The Voice Of Jesus

Verse 1
I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Come unto me and rest;
lay down, thou weary one,
lay down Thy head upon my breast.”
I came to Jesus as I was,
so weary, worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
and he has made me glad.Verse 2
I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“Behold, I freely give
the living water; thirsty one,
stoop down, and drink, and live.”
I came to Jesus, and I drank
of that life-giving stream;
my thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
and now I live in Him.Verse 3
I heard the voice of Jesus say,
“I am this dark world's light;
look unto me, thy morn shall rise,
and all thy day be bright.”
I looked to Jesus, and I found
in him my star, my sun;
and in that light of life I’ll walk
till trav’ling days are done.

In Christ There Is No East Or West

Verse 1
In Christ there is no east or west,
in him no south or north,
but one great fam'ly bound by love
throughout the whole wide earth.Verse 2
In him shall true hearts ev’rywhere
their high communion find.
His service is the golden cord
close binding humankind.Verse 3
Join hands, disciples in the faith,
whate’er your race may be.
Who serve each other in Christ's love
are surely kin to me.Verse 4
In Christ now meet both east and west,
in him meet south and north.
All Christly souls are one in him,
throughout the whole wide earth.
