Opening prayer
Joyful, joyful, we adore Thee,
God of glory, Lord of love;
Hearts unfold like flow’rs before Thee,
Op’ning 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 heav’n reflect Thy rays,
Stars and angels sing around Thee,
Center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
Flow’ry meadow, flashing sea,
Singing bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee.
Thou art giving and forgiving,
Ever blessing, ever blest,
Wellspring of the joy of living,
Ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou our Father, Christ our Brother,
All who live in love are Thine;
Teach us how to love each other,
Lift us to the joy divine.
Mortals, join the happy chorus,
Which the morning stars began;
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing, march we onward,
Victors in the midst of strife,
Joyful music leads us Sunward
In the triumph song of life.
BIBLE READING
Special song .
From the highest of heights
to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the
fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song
that it sings
All exclaiming
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky
and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees
as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Who has told every lightning
bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses
laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and
gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us
the coolness of night
None can fathom
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky
and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees
as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
depths of my heart and
You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky
and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Time of Congregational prayer
The splendour of the King, clothed in
majesty,
Let all the earth rejoice, all the earth
rejoice.
He wraps Himself in light, and
darkness tries to hide,
And trembles at his voice, trembles at
his voice.
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, all will see
How great, how great is our God
Age to age He stands and time is in His
hands,
Beginning and the end, beginning and the
end.
The Godhead, three in one: Father, Spirit,
Son,
The Lion and the Lamb, the Lion and the
Lamb.
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, all will see
How great, how great is our God
Name above all names
Worthy of all praiseMy heart will singHow great is our God
How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, all will see
How great, how great is our God
God bless you all and
have a blessed day
