GATHER US IN (Sunday 9am)
Here in this place, new light is steaming,
now is the darkness vanished away;
see in this space our fears and our dreamings,
brought here to You in the light of this day.
Gather us in the lost and forsaken;
gather us in the blind and the lame;
call to us now, and we shall awaken,
we shall arise at the sound of our name.
We are the young, our lives are a mystery;
we are the old, who yearn for Your face;
we have been sung throughout all of history,
called to be light to the whole human race.
Gather us in the rich and the haughty;
gather us in, the proud and the strong;
give us a heart so meek and so lowly,
give us the courage to enter the song.
Here we will take the wine and the water,
here we will take the bread of new birth;
here You shall call Your sons and Your daughters,
call us anew to be salt for the earth.
Give us to drink the wine of compassion;
give us to eat, the bread that is You;
nourish us well, and teach us to fashion,
lives that are holy and hearts that are true.

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD (Sunday 9am)
The Lord is my shepherd and I want to follow,
wherever He leads me, wherever He goes.
Over the mountains, the waters and byways,
valleys and highways, He’s waiting for me.
Refrain:
I want to go to meet him there,
to lay myself down in His love.
The Lord is my shepherd and I want to follow,
wherever He leads me wherever He goes.
And while on the journey to where we are going,
he promised to be there to help us along.
And over the mountains, we’ll walk on together,
to know all the wonders, He’s given to me. Refrain

ONE BREAD, ONE BODY (Sunday 9am)
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
Grain for the fields, scattered and grown,
gathered to one, for all. Refrain

THE POWER OF YOUR LOVE (Sunday 9am)
Lord I come to You.
Let my heart be changed, renewed,
flowing from the grace
that I found in You.
Lord I've come to know,
the weaknesses I see in me
will be stripped away
by the power of Your love.
Refrain
Hold me close,
let Your love surround me.
Bring me near,
draw me to Your side.
And as I wait,
I'll rise up like the eagle
and I will soar with You;
Your Spirit leads me on
in the power of Your love.
Lord unveil my eyes.
Let me see You face to face,
the knowledge of Your love
as You live in me.
Lord renew my mind
as Your will unfolds in my life,
in living every day
by the power of Your love.
Refrain (Repeat twice)

LOVE DIVINE, ALL LOVES EXCELLING (Sunday 9am)
Love divine, all loves excelling,
joy of heav’n, to earth come down;
fix in us Your humble dwelling,
all Your faithful mercies crown.
Jesus, You are all compassion
andunbounded love impart;
visit us with Your salvation,
enter ev’ry trembling heart.
Come, Almighty, to deliver,
let us all Your Life receive;
come to us, return forever,
nevermore Your temple leave.
We shall always give You blessing,
serve You as Your hosts above,
honour, praise You without ceasing,
glory in Your perfect love.
