Come on. Come in. We're all gathering.
 Think on God’s grace, not on your sin. 
 Here you are loved and forgiven. 

 ‘Cause there’s friends here new and old   And there’s stories to be told
 And there’s bread and there’s wine to be shared for where there’s love God is truly there

 Come on.  Come in 
We thought it was over and we’re at our end  
 But it’s only another chance to begin ‘Cause songs here to be sung  and there’s welcome for everyone
 And there’s bread and there’s wine to be shared
 For where there’s love God is truly there 
Come Holy Spirit fill the hearts of the faithful and kindle in us the fires of your love
4.
The Point 04:06
We have all been caught at some time marching in the order of death
 justice for some, blessing the deserving and holding self-righteousness Using others for our advantage  for the privilege of the few Dominating creation, excessive consumption, trusting in human power

 What is the point? Refusing to give up, the Creator continues to call individuals to pass through the watery depths 
to resurrection into Gods promises     validation is ours on the cross you are free
 you are beloved just as you are   

Instilled in each and every person is a longing for the order of life
Reconciliation and trust in our God -  one loving family in Christ
 The unity of all creation good news for the poor and powerless
 God’s abundance for all. God’s mercy for all.  God’s blessing for all. Forgiveness for all


 This is the point.  Refusing to give up,    Jesus continues to call individuals
 To pass through the watery depths    To resurrection into God’s promises
 Validation is ours on the cross you are free   You are beloved just as you are
5.
Let Us Pray 03:49
Lord, have mercy 

For the peace from above and 
for our salvation 

Let us pray to the Lord Lord, have mercy

 For the peace of the whole world
 For the well‐being of the church of God
 And for the unity of all

 Let us pray to the Lord Lord, have mercy For this holy house and for all who offer here their worship and praise Let us pray to the Lord Lord, have mercy 
Help, save comfort and defend us Oh Gracious Lord      
6.
There’s nothing wrong with Joy though so many are sad.
 So thank you God for Joy. Live joy.
 
 There’s nothing wrong with Hope though so many are despair.
 So thank you God for Hope. Live hope. 
There’s nothing wrong with Faith though we're so cynical
 So thank you God for Faith. Live Faith.


 There’s nothing wrong with Love though ambivalence reigns.
 So thank you God for Love. Live Love. We will not give up on love.
7.
Revealed 05:31
Heaven and earth rejoice for I am with you,
 The wonder and awe that keeps the stars apart
 The mystery of this union weighs on me.

 You must know I'm not worthy to receive you
My history, my hidden thoughts are clear as day to you

 Oh just touch my lips and I am revealed      Only say the word and I shall be healed

 Heaven and earth rejoice for you are with me
 My body is now a vessel for your heart
 My life is not my own because it's yours 

 My God I'd be a fool not to receive you
 The very thought of all you are is dawning like the day
8.
Of the Father’s love begotten, ere the worlds began to be,
 He is Alpha and Omega, He the source, the ending He,
 Of the things that are, that have been,
 And that future years shall see, evermore and evermore! At His Word the worlds were framed; He commanded; it was done:
 Heaven and earth and depths of ocean in their threefold order one;
 All that grows beneath the shining
 Of the moon and burning sun, evermore and evermore! This is He Whom seers in old time chanted of with one accord;
 Whom the voices of the prophets promised in their faithful word;
 Now He shines, the long expect-ed,
 Let creation praise its Lord, evermore and evermore! O ye heights of heaven adore Him; angel hosts, His praises sing;
 Powers, dominions, bow before Him, and extol our God and King!
Honor, glory, and dominion,
 And eternal victory, evermore and evermore! Christ, to Thee with God the Father, and, O Holy Ghost, to Thee,
 Hymn and chant with high thanksgiving, and unwearied praises be:
 Let no tongue on earth be silent,     
 Every voice in concert sing, evermore and evermore!
9.
The Lord be with you And also with you
 Lift up your hearts We lift them up to the Lord Let us give thanks to the Lord It is right to give God thanks and praise   
(It is our duty and our joy in all times and all places with all people and all Creation)

 You are holy and you are here 
 Lord God Almighty
Heaven and earth are full of your glory 
Hosanna in the highest 
 Let us sing, “Hosanna!”
 Blest be the one who comes in your name

10.
For You 03:36
This is my body given for you.                                
 Remember Beloved I’m for you.                                           
 This is my blood poured out for you.
 Remember Beloved I’m for you.
 
 It is here that Christ meets us. Here the Spirit woos us.
 In bread and wine the grace of God finds us.

 Lamb of God you take away the sin of the world have mercy on us
11.
Teach us Lord of your Love
 That we might learn to love ourselves

 Inside love, find your will
 To work toward justice in the world 

Let your mercy spread all around
 To end abuse violence and war

 You have shown me what you want from me
 To do justly and love mercy

 To walk humble with our one God
 Go in peace with our one God

12.
In nòmine Patris, et Fìlii, 
(in the name of the Father, and the Son) 
et Spìritus Sancti. Amen. (and the Holy Spirit. Amen)
