- Introit -


I Danced in the Morning
(VU 352, verse 1)
I danced in the morning
When the world was begun,
And I danced in the moon
And the stars and the sun,
And I came down from heaven
And I danced on the earth,
At Bethlehem I had my birth.

Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.
And I'll lead you all wherever you may be,
And I'll lead you all in the dance, said he.













I Come with Joy
(VU 477, verses 1, 4 & 5)

I come with joy, a child of God,
Forgiven, loved and free,
The life of Jesus to recall,
In love laid down for me.
In love laid down for me.



The Spirit of the risen Christ,
Unseen, but ever near,
Is in such friendship better known,
Alive among us here.
Alive among us here.
Together met, together bound
By all that God has done,
We'll go with joy, to give the world
The love that makes us one.
The love that makes us one.





Though I May Speak
(VU 372)

Though I may speak with bravest fire,
And have the gift to all inspire,
And have not love; my words are vain;
As sounding brass, and hopeless gain.



Though I may give all I possess,
And striving so my love profess,
But not be given by love within,
The profit soon turns strangely thin.


Come, Spirit, come, our hearts control,
Our spirits long to be made whole.
Let inward love guide every deed;
By this we worship, and are freed.

Sunday Message


- Anthem -
Creator God you gave us life,
Your image formed within our souls,
Yet through the mist of time and space,
We search fo that which makes us whole.

Through hands that paint majestic skies,
And voices chanting melody,
With words that reach beyond the page,
We comprehend your mystery...

In Loving Partnership We Come
(VU 603, verses 1 & 2)

In loving partnership we come,
Seeking, O God, your will to do.
Our prayers and actions now receive;
We freely offer them to you.

We are the hands and feet of Christ,
Serving by grace each other's need.
We dare to risk and sacrifice
With truthful word and faithful deed.









Be Thou My Vision
(VU 642)

Be Thou my Vision,
O joy 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,
My calm in all in all strife;
I ever with Thee
And thou in my life;
Thou loving parent,
Thy child may I be,
Thou in me dwelling,
And I one with thee.



Be thou my battle shield,
Sword for the fight;
Be thou my dignity,
Thou my delight,
Thou my soul's shelter,
Thou my high tower;
Raise thou me heavenward,
O power of my power.
Riches I heed not,
Nor vain empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance,
Now and always;
Thou and thou only,
The first in my heart,
Great God of heaven,
My treasure thou art.

Great God of heaven,
After victory won,
May I reach heaven's joys,
O bright heaven's sun!
Heart of my own heart,
Whatever befall,
Still be my vision,
O ruler of all.




Commissioning

Let us keep our eyes on God always
We are sent out with strength and divine love renewed.
Then what can happen to us if God is with us? We are
safe in God's hands.
With confidence, we trust that God will journey with
us this week.
This week and all year long, all your life long.
Praise be to God.
Amen.





- Common Blessing -


When You Walk from Here
(VU 298)

When you walk from here,
When you walk from here,
Walk with justice,
Walk with mercy,
And with God's humble care.
