Come unto Jesus, all you who are weary;
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, broken and needy;
Come unto Jesus, mighty to heal.

Joy of the comfortless, Light for the straying,
Hope of the penitent, Peace in our strife;
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying:
"My yoke is easy, my burden is light." 

Come unto Jesus, 
Come unto Jesus.
Lay down your burdens, He is enough;
Come unto Jesus, rest in His love.

Come taste the Bread of Life, broken for sinners;
Drink from the cup of His promise made sure.
Feast at His table as sons and as daughters;
Grace overflowing is yours evermore.

Come unto Jesus...

Come now and follow Him, this life forsaking;   
All that was gain, count as nothing but loss.
Trade all this world for His kingdom unfading;
Come unto Jesus, take up your cross;
Come unto Jesus, take up your cross;
Life everlasting He offers to us.

Come unto Jesus...

You're the Word of God the Father
From before the world began.
Ev'ry star and ev'ry planet
Has been fashioned by Your hand.
All creation holds together
By the power of Your voice.
Let the skies declare Your glory;
Let the land and seas rejoice!

You're the Author of creation;
You're the Lord of ev'ry man;
And Your cry of love rings out across the lands.

Yet You left the gaze of angels,
Came to seek and save the lost,
And exchanged the joy of heaven
For the anguish of a cross.
With a prayer You fed the hungry;
With a word You stilled the sea;
Yet how silently You suffered
That the guilty may go free!

You're the Author of creation...

With a shout You rose victorious,
Wresting vict'ry from the grave,
And ascended into heaven,
Leading captives in Your wake.
Now You stand before the Father,
Interceding for Your own;
From each tribe and tongue and nation,
You are leading sinners home!

You're the Author of creation...

O God, before the mountains were brought forth
Or days of spring and summer filled the earth
From everlasting, You are God

We dwell beneath the stars in ancient skies
A thousand years are nothing in Your sight
From everlasting, You are God

And all our days are held within Your hands
Your perfect love and favour have no end
We rest within the wisdom of Your plan
Everlasting God

O God, when joy and tragedy collide
And loss reminds us life is but a sigh
From everlasting, You are God

And all our days...

O God of light our ways are known to You
But by Your grace You’re making all things new
So satisfy us in our numbered days
Establish every effort while we wait
From everlasting, You are God

And all our days...

Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father,
There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not;
As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

Great is Thy faithfulness!
Great is Thy faithfulness!
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided,
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above,
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Great is Thy faithfulness...

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide;
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

Great is Thy faithfulness...

Lord God,

we are not worthy to come before you,

or to live in your presence,

for we are to blame for our failure to do right:

we have not always spoken the truth

from our heart,

nor has our tongue been free from slander;

we have wronged our friends

and criticized our neighbours;

we have condoned evil,

and not honoured those who fear you;

we have not kept our promises

when it hurt us to do so;

we have not used our wealth to your glory:    

O Lord, forgive us and help us;

for your name's sake. Amen.

Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven;
To His feet thy tribute bring.
Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven,
Who like thee His praise should sing?
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Praise the everlasting King!

Praise Him for His grace and favour
To our fathers in distress;
Praise Him, still the same forever,
Slow to chide, and swift to bless.
Praise Him! Praise Him!
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!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
Widely as His mercy flows.

Angels in the height, 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 Him! Praise Him!
Praise with us the God of grace!

We won't fear the battle, we won't fear the night,
We will walk the valley with you by our side.
You will go before us, you will lead the way,
We have found a refuge, only you can save.

Sing with joy now: our God is for us,
The Father's love is a strong and mighty fortress;
Raise your voice now, no love is greater,
Who can stand against us if our God is for us?

Even when I stumble, even when I fall,
Even when I turn back, still Your love is sure;
You will not abandon, you will not forsake,
You will cheer me onward with never ending grace.

Sing with joy now...

Neither height nor depth can separate us,
Hell and death will not defeat us,
He who gave His Son to free us
Holds me in His love.

Sing with joy now...

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea;
A great high priest whose name is love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on his hands,
My name is hidden in his heart;
I know that while in heaven he stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart.

When Satan tempts me to despair,
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upwards I look and see him there
Who made an end to all my sin
Because the sinless Saviour died,
My sinful soul is counted free;
For God the just is satisfied
To look on him and pardon me.

Behold him there the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless righteousness;
The great unchangeable I am,
The King of glory and of grace.
One with himself I cannot die,
My soul is purchased with his blood;
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Saviour and my God.

WE BELIEVE in one God,
the Father, the Almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
the only Son of God,
eternally begotten of the Father,
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
of one Being with the Father.
Through him all things were made.

For us and for our salvation
he came down from heaven:
by the power of the Holy Spirit
he became incarnate from the Virgin Mary,
and was made man.

For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate;
he suffered death and was buried.
On the third day he rose again
in accordance with the Scriptures;
he ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.

He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead,
and his kingdom will have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son.
With the Father and the Son he is worshiped and glorified.
He has spoken through the Prophets.
We believe in one holy universal and apostolic Church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.
We look for the resurrection of the dead,
and the life of the world to come.

Amen.

When I fear my faith will fail,
Christ will hold me fast;
When the tempter would prevail,
He will hold me fast.
I could never keep my hold
Through life's fearful path;
For my love is often cold
He must hold me fast.

He will hold me fast,
He will hold me fast;
For my Saviour loves me so,
He will hold me fast.

Those He saves are His delight,
Christ will hold me fast;
Precious in His holy sight,
He will hold me fast.
He'll not let my soul be lost,
His promises shall last.
Bought by Him at such a cost,
He will hold me fast.

For my life He bled and died,
Christ will hold me fast;
Justice has been satisfied,
He will hold me fast.
Raised with Him to endless life,
He will hold me fast;
Till our faith is turned to sight,
When he comes at last.

The grace of God has reached for me,
And pulled me from the raging sea,
And I am safe on this solid ground,
The Lord is my salvation.

I will not fear when darkness falls,
His strength will help me scale these walls,
I'll see the dawn of the rising sun,
The Lord is my salvation.

Who is like the Lord our God?
Strong to save, faithful in love;
My debt is paid and the victory won,
The Lord is my salvation.

My hope is hidden in the Lord,
He flowers each promise of His Word,
When winter fades I know spring will come,
The Lord is my salvation.

In times of waiting, times of need,
When I know loss, when I am weak,
I know His grace will renew these days,
The Lord is my salvation.

Who is like...

And when I reach my final day,
He will not leave me in the grave,
But I will rise, He will call me home
The Lord is my salvation.

Who is like...

Glory be to God the Father,
Glory be to God the Son,
Glory be to God the Spirit,
The Lord is our salvation!
