CHRIST BE OUR LIGHT (Sunday 9am & 5pm)
Longing for light, we wait in darkness.
Longing for truth, we turn to you.
Make us Your own, Your holy people,
Light for the world to see.
Refrain:
Christ be our light! Shine in Your hearts.
Shine through the darkness. Christ be our light!
Shine in your Church gathered today.
Longing for peace, our world is troubled.
Longing for hope, many despair.
Your word alone has pow’r to save us,
Make us Your living voice. Refrain
Longing for food, many are hungry.
Longing for water, many still thirst.
Make us Your bread, broken for others,
shared until all are fed. Refrain

ALLELUIA! SING TO JESUS (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.

BE THOU MY VISION (Sunday 9am & 5pm)
Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art.
Thou my best thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle shield, sword for the fight;
Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight;
Thou my soul’s shelter, Thou my high tow’r;
Raise Thou me heav’n ward, O pow’r of my pow’r.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art.

BEFORE THE THRONE OF GOD ABOVE (Sunday 9am & 5pm)
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea:
a great High Priest, whose name is Love,
whoever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on his hands;
my name is written on his heart;
I know that while in heav’n He stands
no tongue can bid me thence depart
no tongue can bid me thence depart.
Refrain
Hallelujah
My life is found in Jesus Christ
Hallelujah
For I am His and He is mine.
When Satan tempts me to despair,
and tells me of the guilt within,
upward I look, and see Him there,
who made an end of all my sin.
Because a sinless Saviour died,
my sinful soul is counted free;
for God, the Just, is satisfied
to look on Him and pardon me
to look on Him and pardon me. Refrain

from whom all things come,

His only Son,
and all praise to the Spirit,
who makes us one. Refrain
