Welcome and Intimations

CH4 196 Come, Now Is the Time to Worship

1. One day every tongue
   Will confess You are God
   One day every knee will bow
   Still the greatest treasure remains
   For those who gladly choose You now
   

   Come now is the time to worship
   Come now is the time to give your heart
   Come just as you are to worship
   Come just as you are before your God
   Come

Prayer and Lord’s 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 296 I stand amazed in the presence

1. I stand amazed in the presence
   of Jesus the Nazarene,
   and wonder how He could love me,
   a sinner, condemned, unclean.
   

   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   and my song shall ever be:
   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   is my Saviour’s love for me!
   

2. For me it was in the garden
   He prayed – ‘Not My will, but Thine’;
   He had no tears for His own griefs,
   but sweat drops of blood for mine.
   How marvellous ...
   

   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   and my song shall ever be:
   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   is my Saviour’s love for me!
   

3. He took my sins and my sorrows,
   He made them His very own;
   He bore the burden to Calvary
   and suffered, and died alone.
   How marvellous ...
   

   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   and my song shall ever be:
   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   is my Saviour’s love for me!
   

4. When with the ransomed in glory
   His face I at last shall see,
   ‘twill be my joy through the ages
   to sing of His love for me.
   

   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   and my song shall ever be:
   How marvellous! how wonderful!
   is my Saviour’s love for me!

CH4 481 Jesus Is the Name We Honour

1. Jesus is the name we honour;
   Jesus is the name we praise.
   Majestic name above all other names;
   the highest heaven and earth proclaim
   that Jesus is our God.
   

   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.
   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.
   

2. Jesus is the name we worship;
   Jesus is the name we trust.
   He is the King above all other kings;
   let all creation stand and sing
   that Jesus is our God.
   

   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.
   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.
   

3. Jesus is the Father’s splendour;
   Jesus is the Father’s joy.
   He will return to reign in majesty
   and every eye at last shall see
   that Jesus is our God.
   

   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.
   We will glorify, we will lift him high,
   we will give him honour and praise.

Message

CH4 485 Dear Lord and Father of Mankind

1. Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
   forgive our foolish ways!
   Reclothe us in our rightful mind;
   in purer lives Thy service find,
   in deeper rev'rence, praise.
   in deeper rev'rence, praise.
   

2. In simple trust like theirs who heard,
   beside the Syrian sea,
   the gracious calling of the Lord,
   let us, like them, without a word
   Rise up and follow Thee.
   Rise up and follow Thee.
   

3. O Sabbath rest by Galilee!
   O calm of hills above,
   where Jesus knelt to share with Thee
   the silence of eternity,
   interpreted by love!
   interpreted by love!
   

4. With that deep hush subduing all,
   our words and works that drown,
   the tender whisper of Thy call,
   as noiseless let the blessing fall,
   as fell Thy manna down.
   as fell Thy manna down.
   

5. Drop Thy still dews of quietness,
   till all our strivings cease;
   take from our souls the strain and stress,
   and let our ordered lives confess
   the beauty of Thy peace.
   the beauty of Thy peace.
   

6. Breathe through the heats of our desire
   Thy coolness and Thy balm;
   let sense be dumb, let flesh retire;
   speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,
   O still small voice of calm!
   O still small voice of calm!

Prayer of Intercession

CH4 123 God Is Love; Let Heaven Adore Him

1. God is Love, let heav'n adore him;
   God is Love, let earth rejoice;
   Let creation sing before him
   And exalt him with one voice.
   He who laid the earth's foundation,
   He who spread the heav'ns above,
   He who breathes through all creation:
   God is Love, eternal Love.
   

2. God is Love; and is enfolding
   All the world in one embrace:
   With unfailing grasp is holding,
   Ev'ry child of ev'ry race.
   And when human hearts are breaking
   Under sorrow's iron rod,
   Then they find that selfsame aching
   Deep within the heart of God.
   

3. God is Love; and though with blindness
   Sin afflicts the souls of all,
   God's eternal loving kindness
   Holds and guides us when we fall.
   Sin and death and hell shall never
   O'er us final triumph gain;
   God is Love, so Love for ever
   O'er the universe must reign.
