Sharing the Peace

Gathering Song Where There Is Love by Ryan Marsh

Chorus:

Come on. Come in. 

We're all gathering.

Come on. Come in.

We're all gathering.

Think on God’s grace, 

not on your sin.

We're all gathering.

Here you are loved 

and forgiven.

We're all gathering.

‘Cause there’s friends 

here new and old and there’s 

stories to be told

And there’s bread

and there’s wine to be shared

for where there’s love

God is truly there

‘Cause there's songs 

here to be sung and there’s 

welcome for everyone

And there’s bread and

there’s wine to be shared

For where there’s love

God is truly there

Confession

Word of Forgiveness

Song of Praise Glory in the Highest by Jonathan Rundman

Chorus

Glory in the highest 

Glory be to God 

Glory in the highest 

and peace to all the earth 

Shaper of the universe 

Thanks and praise we sing 

Loving father, caring mother 

Hold us in your wings 

Jesus Christ the Lamb of God 

You wash our sins away 

At your table all are welcome 

Hear us as we pray 

Holy Spirit source of life 

Burning wild and free 

You are God the three in one 

Such a mystery

Message

Song of the Day Lord, Whose Love in Humble Service Music: The Sacred Harp; Text: Albert F. Bayly

Lord, whose love in humble service

bore the weight of human need,

who upon the cross, forsaken,

worked your mercy's perfect deed:

we, your servants, bring the worship

not of voice alone, but heart;

consecrating to your purpose

ev'ry gift which you impart.

Still your children wander homeless;

still the hungry cry for bread;

still the captives long for freedom;

still in grief we mourn our dead.

As you, Lord, in deep compassion

healed the sick and freed the soul,

by your Spirit send your power

to our world to make it whole.

As we worship, grant us vision,

till your love's revealing light

in its height and depth and greatness

dawns upon our quickened sight,

making known the needs and burdens

your compassion bids us bear,

stirring us to ardent service,

your abundant life to share.

Called by worship to your service,

forth in your dear name we go,

to the child, the youth, the aged, 

love in living deeds to show;

hope and health, good will and comfort,

counsel, aid and peace we give, 

that your servants, Lord, in freedom

may your mercy know and live.

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, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

the sin of the world

Oh grant us peace

Lamb of God

Into the world as a servant

Go now with God, go now with God

Go now, go now, 

go now with God

Go now, go now,

Offering a hand to a stranger

Go now with God, go now with God

Trusting in the risen savior

Go now with God, go now with God
