Bidding PrayerThe Rector

HymnPraise, My Soul, the King of Heaven

Praise, my soul, the King of heaven;To his feet thy tribute bring.

Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,Who like me his praise should sing?

Praise him! Praise him!Praise the everlasting King.

Praise him for his grace and favourTo our fathers in distress;

Praise him still the same for ever,Slow to chide, and swift to bless.

Praise him! Praise him!Glorious in his faithfulness.

Father-like, he tends and spares us;Well our feeble frame he knows;In his hands he gently bears us,

Rescues us from all our foes.Praise him! Praise him!

Widely as his mercy flows.

Angels, help us to adore him;Ye behold him face to face;

Sun and moon, bow down before him;Dwellers all in time and space.

Praise him! Praise him!Praise with us the God of grace.

HymnLord of all Hopefulness

Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy,Whose trust, ever child-like, no cares could destroy,

Be there at our waking, and give us, we pray,Your bliss in our hearts, Lord, at the break of the day.

Lord of all eagerness, Lord of all faith,Whose strong hands were skilled at the plane and the lathe,

Be there at our labours, and give us, we pray,Your strength in our hearts, Lord, at the noon of the day.

Lord of all kindliness, Lord of all grace,Your hands swift to welcome, your arms to embrace,

Be there at our homing, and give us, we pray,Your love in our hearts, Lord, at the eve of the day.

Lord of all gentleness, Lord of all calm,Whose voice is contentment, whose presence is balm,

Be there at our sleeping, and give us, we pray,Your peace in our hearts, Lord, at the end of the day.

PrayersReverend Anthony Buckley

HymnTell Out, My Soul

Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord:Unnumbered blessings, give my spirit voice;

Tender to me the promise of his word;In God my Saviour shall my heart rejoice.

Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his name:Make known his might, the deeds his arm has done;

His mercy sure, from age to age the same;His holy name, the Lord, the Mighty One.

Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his might:Powers and dominions lay their glory by;

Proud hearts and stubborn wills are put to flight,The hungry fed, the humble lifted high.

Tell out, my soul, the glories of his word:Firm is his promise, and his mercy sure.

Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the LordTo children’s children and for evermore.
