  3. 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.

  4. CH4 212 Morning Has Broken

    1. Morning has broken
      like the first morning,
      blackbird has spoken
      like the first bird.
      Praise for the singing!
      Praise for the morning!
      Praise for them, springing
      fresh from the Word!

    2. Sweet the rain’s new fall
      sunlit from heaven,
      like the first dewfall
      on the first grass.
      Praise for the sweetness
      of the wet garden,
      sprung in completeness
      where God’s feet pass.

    3. Mine is the sunlight!
      Mine is the morning
      born of the one light
      Eden saw play!
      Praise with elation,
      praise every morning,
      God’s recreation
      of the new day!

  7. CH4 459 Crown Him with Many Crowns

    1. Crown Him with many crowns,
      the Lamb upon His throne;
      Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
      all music but its own:
      awake, my soul, and sing
      of Him who died for thee,
      and hail Him as thy chosen King
      through all eternity.

    2. Crown Him the Lord of life,
      who triumphed o’er the grave,
      and rose victorious in the strife,
      for those He came to save:
      His glories now we sing,
      who died and rose on high,
      who died eternal life to bring,
      and lives that death may die.

    3. Crown him the Lord of love;
      behold his hands and side,
      rich wounds, yet visible above,
      in beauty glorified;
      All hail, Redeemer, hail!
      for thou hast died for me;
      thy praise shall never, never fail
      throughout eternity.

  9. CH4 392 When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

    1. When I survey the wondrous cross
      where the young Prince of Glory died,
      my richest gain I count but loss,
      and pour contempt on all my pride.

    2. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
      save in the death of Christ, my God:
      all the vain things that charm me most,
      I sacrifice them to his blood.

    3. See, from his head, his hands, his feet,
      sorrow and love flow mingled down;
      did e’er such love and sorrow meet,
      or thorns compose so rich a crown?

    4. Were the whole realm of nature mine,
      that were an offering far too small;
      love so amazing, so divine,
      demands my soul, my life, my all.

    CH4 502 Take My Life and Let It Be

    (v 1, 4 & 5)

    1. Take my life, Lord, let it be
      consecrated, glad, and free;
      take my moments and my days,
      let them flow in ceaseless praise.

    2. Take my will -- your will be done,
      may my will and yours be one;
      take my heart -- it is your own,
      it shall be your royal throne.

    3. Take my love -- my Lord, I pour
      at your feet its treasure-store;
      take myself, and I will be
      all for you, eternally.

  12. CH4 419 Thine Be the Glory

    1. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
      endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won;
      angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
      kept the folded grave-clothes where thy body lay.

      Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
      endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.

    2. Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
      lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
      let the church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,
      for her Lord now liveth, death hath lost its sting:

      Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
      endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.

    3. No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of Life;
      life is naught without thee: aid us in our strife;
      make us more than conquerors through thy deathless love;
      bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above:

      Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
      endless is the victory thou o'er death hast won.
