Prayers of Adoration, Confession and Supplication and The Lords Prayer

Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power, and the glory
for ever and ever.
Amen.

MP 237  Holy, Holy, Holy

1. Holy, holy, holy! Lord God almighty!
   Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee.
   Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty!
   God in three persons, blessed trinity!
   

2. Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee,
   casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
   cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
   which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

   though the eye of sinfulness thy glory may not see,
   only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
   perfect in pow’r, in love, and purity.

   All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth, and sky, and sea.

Sermon – Praise

MP 445 Lord, the light of Your love (Shine, Jesus, shine)

1. Lord, the light of Your love is shining,
   in the midst of the darkness, shining:
   Jesus, Light of the world, shine upon us;
   set us free by the truth You now bring us –
   shine on me, shine on me.
   

   Shine, Jesus, shine,
   fill this land with the Father’s glory;
   blaze, Spirit, blaze,
   set our hearts on fire.
   Flow, river, flow,
   flood the nations with grace and mercy;
   send forth Your word, Lord,
   and let there be light!
   

2. Lord, I come to Your awesome presence,
   from the shadows into Your radiance;
   by Your blood I may enter Your brightness:
   search me, try me, consume all my darkness –
   shine on me, shine on me.
   

   Shine, Jesus, shine,
   fill this land with the Father’s glory;
   blaze, Spirit, blaze,
   set our hearts on fire.
   Flow, river, flow,
   flood the nations with grace and mercy;
   send forth Your word, Lord,
   and let there be light!
   

3. As we gaze on Your kingly brightness
   so our faces display Your likeness,
   ever changing from glory to glory:
   mirrored here, may our lives tell Your story –
   shine on me, shine on me.
   

   Shine, Jesus, shine,
   fill this land with the Father’s glory;
   blaze, Spirit, blaze,
   set our hearts on fire.
   Flow, river, flow,
   flood the nations with grace and mercy;
   send forth Your word, Lord,
   and let there be light!
