God of Mercy, God of Grace

God of mercy, God of grace,
show the brightness of Your face.
Shine upon us, Saviour, shine;
fill Your world with light divine,
and Your saving health extend
unto earth’s remotest end.

Let the people praise You, Lord;
be by all that live adored.
Let the nations shout and sing
glory to their gracious King;
at Your feet their tribute pay,
and Your holy will obey.

Let the people praise You, Lord;
earth shall then its fruits afford.
Unto us Your blessing give;
we to You devoted live,
all below and all above,
one in joy and light and love.

PSALM 100 – A Psalm of Thanksgiving

1 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth.

2 Worship the Lord with gladness;
come into His presence with singing.

3 Know that the Lord is God.
It is He that made us, and we are His;
we are His people, and the sheep of His pasture.

4 Enter His gates with thanksgiving,
and His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

5 For the Lord is good;
His steadfast love endures forever,
and His faithfulness to all generations.

Brother, Sister, Let Me Serve You

Brother, sister, let me serve you;
let me be as Christ to you;
pray that I may have the grace to
let you be my servant too.

We are pilgrims on a journey,
and companions on the road;
we are here to help each other
walk the mile and bear 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 may have the grace to
let you be my servant too.

Go Now in Peace

Go now in peace.
Never be afraid.
God will go with you each hour of ev’ry day.

steadfast, strong and true.
Know He will guide you in all you do.

Go now in love, and show you believe.
Reach out to others
so all the world can see.
God will be there
watching from above.
Go now in peace, in faith, and in love.
Amen, Amen, Amen.

Psalm 33

The Greatness and Goodness of God

1 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous.
Praise befits the upright.
2 Praise the Lord with the lyre;
make melody to Him with the harp of ten strings.
3 Sing to Him a new song;
play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts.

4 For the word of the Lord is upright,
and all His work is done in faithfulness.
5 He loves righteousness and justice;
the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord.

6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
and all their host by the breath of His mouth.
7 He gathered the waters of the sea as in a bottle;
He put the deeps in storehouses.

8 Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
9 For He spoke, and it came to be;
He commanded, and it stood firm.

10 The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
He frustrates the plans of the peoples.
 

11 The counsel of the Lord stands forever,
the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
12 Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord,
the people whom He has chosen as his heritage.

13 The Lord looks down from heaven;
He sees all humankind.
14 From where He sits enthroned He watches
all the inhabitants of the earth—
15 He who fashions the hearts of them all,
and observes all their deeds.
16 A king is not saved by his great army;
a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.
17 The war horse is a vain hope for victory,
and by its great might it cannot save.

18 Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, on those who hope in His steadfast love,
19 to deliver their soul from death,
and to keep them alive in famine.

20 Our soul waits for the Lord;
He is our help and shield.
21 Our heart is glad in Him,
because we trust in His holy name.
22 Let Your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us,
even as we hope in You.

Jesu, Jesu, Fill Us with Your Love

Jesu, Jesu, fill us with Your love;
show us how to serve
the neighbours we have from You.

Kneels at the feet of His friends,
silently washes their feet,
master who acts as a slave to them.
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with Your love;
show us how to serve
the neighbours we have from You.

Neighbours are rich and poor,
varied in colour and race;
neighbours are near and far away.
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with Your love;
show us how to serve
the neighbours we have from You.

These are the ones we should serve;
these are the ones we should love;
all are neighbours to us and You.
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with Your love;
show us how to serve
the neighbours we have from You.

Kneel at the feet of our friends,
silently washing their feet;
this is the way we should live with You.
Jesu, Jesu, fill us with Your love;
show us how to serve
the neighbours we have from You.
