ALLELUIA! SING TO JESUS (Saturday 5pm & Sunday 9am)
Alleluia! Sing to Jesus! His the sceptre, His the throne;
Alleluia! His the triumph, His the victory alone.
Hark! The songs of peaceful Sion thunder like a mighty flood:
‘Jesus, out of every nation, has redeemed us by his blood.’
Alleluia! Not as orphans are we left in sorrow now;
Alleluia! He is near us; faith believes, nor questions how.
Though the cloud from sight received Him
when the forty days were o'er, shall our hearts forget his promise,
‘I am with you ever more’?
Alleluia! Bread of angels, and on earth our food, our stay;
Alleluia! Here the sinful come to You from day to day.
Intercessor, friend of sinners, earth’s redeemer, plead for me,
where the songs of all the sinless sweep across the crystal sea.

COMPANIONS ON THE JOURNEY (Sunday 5pm)
Refrain
We are companions on the journey,
breaking bread and sharing life;
and in the love we bear, is the hope we share
for we believe in the love of our God,
we believe in the love of our God.
No longer strangers to each other,
no longer strangers in God’s house;
we are fed and we are nourished
by the strength of those who care,
by the strength of those who care. Refrain
We have been gifted with each other,
and we are called by the Word of the Lord;
to act with justice, to love tenderly and to
walk humbly with our God,
to walk humbly with our God. Refrain
We will seek and we shall find:
we will knock and the door will be opened;
we will ask and it shall be given
for we believe in the love of our God,
we believe in the love of our God. Refrain

SOUL OF MY SAVIOUR (Sunday 9am)
Soul of my Saviour sanctify my breast,
Body of Christ, be thou my saving guest,
Blood of my Saviour, bathe me in thy tide,
wash me with waters gushing from thy side.
Strength and protection may Thy passion be;
O blessed Jesus, hear and answer me;
deep in Thy wounds, Lord, hide and shelter me;
so shall I never, never part from thee.
Guard and defend me from the foe malign,
in death's dread moments make me only thine;
call me and bid me come to thee on high
where I may praise thee with thy saints for aye.

ONE BREAD, ONE BODY (Sunday 5pm)
Refrain
One bread, one body, one Lord of all,
one cup of blessing which we bless.
And we, though many,
throughout the earth,
we are one body in this one Lord.
Gentile or Jew, servant or free,
Woman or man, no more. Refrain
Many the gifts, many the works,
one in the Lord of all. Refrain

gathered to one, for all. Refrain

MY GOD LOVES ME (Sunday 9am)
My God loves me,
His love will never end.
He rests within my heart
For my God loves me.
His gentle hand
He stretches over me.
Though storm clouds threaten the day
He will set me free.
He comes to me
In sharing bread and wine.
He brings me life that will reach
Past the end of time.
My God loves me,
His faithful love endures.
And I will live like a child
Held in love secure.
The joys of love
As offerings now we bring.
The pains of love will be lost
In the praise we sing.

THIS IS MY BODY (Sunday 5pm)
This is my body, broken for you,
bringing you wholeness, making you free.
Take it and eat it, and when you do,
do it in love for me.
This is my blood poured out for you,
bringing forgiveness, making you free.
Take it and drink it, and when you do,
do it in love for me.
Backto my Father soon I shall go.
Do not forget me; then you will see.
I am still with you, and you will know
you’re very close to me.
Filled with my Spirit, how you will grow!
You are my branches; I am the tree.
If you are faithful, others will know
you are alive in me.
Love one another – I have loved you,
and I have shown you how to be free;
serve one another, and when you do,
do it in love for me.

JOYFUL, JOYFUL, WE ADORE THEE (Saturday 5pm)
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love!
Hearts unfold like flow’rs before Thee,
opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness,
drive the dark of doubt away;
giver of immortal gladness,
fill us with the light of day.
All Thy works with joy surround Thee,
earth and heaven reflect Thy rays,
stars and angels sing around Thee,
centre of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
flowery meadow, flashing sea,
chanting bird and flowing fountain,
call us to rejoice in Thee.

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE (Sunday 9am & Sunday 5pm)
I am the Bread of Life.
You who come to me shall not hunger;
you who believe in me shall not thirst.
No one can come to me unless the Father beckons.
Refrain:
And I will raise you up, and I will raise you up
and I will raise you up on the last day.
The bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world;
and you who eat of this bread,
you shall live forever; you shall live forever. Refrain
Unless you eat of the flesh of the Son of Man
and drink of his blood, and drink of his blood,
you shall not have life within you. Refrain
I am the resurrection, I am the life,
If you believe in me, even if you die,
you shall live for ever. Refrain
