We begin this service by singing ‘Brother, Sister, Let Me Serve You’:

Brother, sister, Let me serve you,
Let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I might have the grace to,
Let you be my servant too.

We are pilgrims on a journey,
We are brothers on the road.
We are here to help each other,
Walk the mile and bear the load.

I will hold the Christ-light for you,
In the night-time of your fear.
I will hold my hand out to you,
Speak the peace you long to hear.

I will weep when you are weeping,
When you laugh I’ll laugh with you.
I will share your joy and sorrow,
‘Till we’ve seen this journey through.

When we sing to God in heaven,
We shall find such harmony.
Born of all we’ve known together,
Of Christ’s love and agony.

Brother, sister, Let me serve you,
Let me be as Christ to you.
Pray that I might have the grace to,
Let you be my servant too.

Please now listen to the Reading at the top of this page, before continuing with the Sermon below.

Be still for the presence of the Lord,
The Holy One is here.
Come bow before Him now,
With reverence and fear.
In Him no sin is found,
We stand on holy ground,

Be still for the presence of the Lord,
The Holy One is here.
Be still for the glory of the Lord,
Is shining all around.
He burns with holy fire,
With splendour He is crowned.
How awesome is the sight,
Our radiant King of Light,
Be still for the glory of the Lord,
Is shining all around.

Be still for the power of the Lord,
Is moving in this place.
He comes to cleanse and heal,
To minister His grace.
No work to hard for Him,
In faith receive from Him,
Be still for the power of the Lord,
Is moving in this place.

We continue our service below with Prayers and Communion.

Take my life, and let it be,
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee.
Take my moments, and my days,
Let them flow in ceaseless praise.
Take my hands, and let them move,
At the impulse of Thy love.
Take my feet and let them be,
Swift and beautiful for Thee.

Take my voice and let me sing,
Always, only for my King.
Take my lips, and let them be,
Filled with messages from Thee.
Take my silver, and my gold,
Not a mite would I withhold.
Take my intellect and use,
Every power as You choose.

Here am I, all of me.
Take my life, it’s all for Thee.

Take my will, and make it Thine,
It shall be no longer mine.
Take my heart, it is Thine own,
It shall be Thy royal throne.
Take my love, my Lord I pour,
At Your feet, its treasure store.
Take myself and I will be,
Ever, only, all for Thee.
Take myself and I will be,
Ever, only, all for Thee.

Here am I, all of me.
Take my life, it’s all for Thee.
