We begin this service by singing ‘Come People Of The Risen King’:

Come, people of the Risen King,
Who delight to bring Him praise.
Come all and tune your hearts to sing,
To the Morning Star of grace.
From the shifting shadows of the earth,
We will lift our eyes to Him.
Where steady arms of mercy reach,
To gather children in.

Rejoice, Rejoice!
Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice,
O Church of Christ, Rejoice!

Come, those whose joy is morning sun,
And those weeping through the night.
Come, those who tell of battles won,
And those struggling in the fight.
For His perfect love will never change,
And His mercies never cease.
But follow us through all our days,
With the certain hope of peace.

Rejoice, Rejoice!
Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice,
O Church of Christ, Rejoice!

Come, young and old from every land,
Men and women of the faith.
Come, those with full or empty hands,
Find the riches of His grace.
Over all the world, his people sing,
Shore to shore we hear them call.
The Truth that cries through every age:
“Our God is all in all”.

Rejoice, Rejoice!
Let every tongue rejoice!
One heart, one voice,
O Church of Christ, Rejoice!

We now sing ‘Gracefully Broken’:

Take all, I, have in these hands,
And multiply, God, All that I am,
And find my heart, on, the altar again,
Set me on fire, set me on fire.
(x2)

Here I am, God, Arms wide open.
Pouring out my life, Gracefully Broken.

My heart stands, in awe of Your name,
Your mighty love, stands, strong to the end,
You will fulfill, your, purpose for me,
You won’t forsake me, you will be with me.

Here I am, God, Arms wide open.
Pouring out my life, Gracefully Broken.
(x2)

All to Jesus now. All to Jesus now.
Holding nothing back. Holding nothing back.
I surrender, I surrender.
I surrender, I surrender.

Here I am, God, Arms wide open.
Pouring out my life, Gracefully Broken.
(x3)

We continue our service below with Prayers and Communion.
