O CHRIST, THE GREAT FOUNDATION (Sunday 9am)
O Christ the great foundation
on which your people stand
to preach your true salvation
in ev’ry age and land:
pour out your Holy Spirit
to make us strong and pure,
to keep the faith unbroken
as long as worlds endure.
Baptised in one confession,
one Church in all the earth,
we bear our Lord’s impression,
the sign of second birth:
one holy people gathered
in love beyond your own,
by grace we were invited,
by grace we make you known.
Where tyrants’ hold is tightened,
where strong devour the weak,
where innocents are frightened
the righteous fear to speak,
there let your Church awakening
attack the powers of sin and,
all their ramparts breaking,
with you the vict’ry win.

SING TO THE MOUNTAINS (Sunday 5pm)
Refrain
Sing to the mountains, sing to the sea.
Raise your voices, lift your hearts.
This is the day the Lord has made.
Let all the earth rejoice.
I will give thanks to You, my Lord.
You have answered my plea.
You have saved my soul from death.
You are my strength and my song. Refrain
Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord.
Heaven and earth are full of Your glory. Refrain
This is the day that the Lord has made.
Let us be glad and rejoice.
He has turned all death to life.
Sing of the glory of God. Refrain

ADORE TE DEVOTE (Sunday 9am)
Godhead here in hiding, whom I do adore,
Masked by these bare shadows, shape and nothing more,
See, Lord, at Thy service low lies here a heart
Lost, all lost in wonder at the God thou art.
Seeing, touching, tasting are in thee deceived:
How says trusty hearing? that shall be believed;
What God’s Son has told me, take for truth I do;
Truth Himself speaks truly or there’s nothing true.
On the cross Thy godhead made no sign to men,
Here Thy very manhood steals from human ken:
Both are my confession, both are my belief,
And I pray the prayer of the dying thief.
I am not like Thomas, wounds I cannot see,
But can plainly call thee Lord and God as he;
Let me to a deeper faith daily nearer move,
Daily make me harder hope and dearer love.
O thou our reminder of Christ crucified,
Living Bread, the life of us for whom he died,
Lend this life to me then: feed and feast my mind,
There be thou the sweetness man was meant to find.

ALL THAT I AM (Sunday 5pm)
All that I am, all that I do,
all that I’ll ever have,
I offer now to You.
Refrain
Take and sanctify these gifts
for your honour, Lord.
Knowing that I love and serve You
is enough reward.
All that I dream, all that I pray,
all that I’ll ever make,
I give to You this day. 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.

GIVE THANKS (Sunday 5pm)
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks to the Holy One
Give thanks because He’s given
Jesus Christ, His Son. (Repeat)
And now let the weak say, “I am strong”
Let the poor say, “I am rich
because of what the Lord has
done for us”. (Repeat)
Give thanks.

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD (Sunday 5pm)
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

PRAISE, MY SOUL, THE KING OF HEAVEN (Sunday 9am)
Praise, my soul, the king of heaven;
to His feet your tribute bring:
ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
who like me His praise should sing?
Praise Him! Praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise the everlasting king!
Angels, help us to adore Him;
you behold Him face to face;
sun and moon, bow down before Him,
all that is, in time and space:
Praise Him! Praise Him! Alleluia!
Praise with us the God of Grace!

GO MAKE A DIFFERENCE (Sunday 5pm)
Refrain
Go make a diff’rence.
We can make a diff’rence.
Go make a diff’rence in the world.
Go make a diff’rence.
We can make a diff’rence.
Go make a diff’rence in the world.
We are the salt of the earth, called to let the people see
the love of God in you and me.
We are the light of the world,
not to be hidden but be seen.
Go make a diff’rence in the world. Refrain
We are the hands of Christ reaching out to those in need,
the face of God for all to see.
We are the spirit of hope; we are the voice of peace.
Go make a diff’rence in the world. Refrain
So let your love shine on, let it shine for all to see.
Go make a diff’rence in the world.
And the spirit of Christ will be with us as we go.
Go make a diff’rence in the world. Refrain
