We Have Gathered

We have gathered
We have gathered
We have gathered to be with you

We’ve come to worship
We’ve come to worship
We’ve come to worship and praise you

‘Cause you are worthy
‘Cause you are worthy
‘Cause you are worthy of our love

Blessing and honor and glory and power forever be yours

Divine Nature
You make the oceans bountiful
You make the rose so beautiful
You make the mountains grow so tall
You make the stars seem so very small

You make the sunrise and nightfall
You make the misty waterfall
You make the moon shadowed snowfall
You make the rain-bowed rainfall

Father we marvel at your creation everyday
What beauty surrounds us
Your divine nature on display

You make the worst day embraceable
You make the impossible possible
You make the hopeless hopeful
You make the anguished peaceful

All creatures of our God and King,
Lift up your voice with us and sing:
Oh, praise him! Alleluia!

The Favor of the Lord
Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us,
And establish the work of our hands;
Yes, establish the work of our hands;
The work of our hands!

Let the loveliness of our Lord, our God, rest on us,
Let the loveliness of our Lord, our God, rest on us,
Confirming the work that we do.
Oh, yes confirming the work that we do!
That we do!

Satisfy us in the morn with your steadfast love,
Satisfy us in the morn with your steadfast love,
That we may rejoice and be glad.
That we may rejoice and be glad!
And be glad!

Oh, LORD our God, may your blessings be with us.
Oh, LORD our God, may your blessings be with us.
Give us good life in all we do.
Give us good life in all we do!
In all that we do!

My Secret Heart
In my quietness
I feel the emptyness
Deep down inside my chest
In my secret heart

Longing prayerfully
I'm trusting faithfully
That peace will soon find me
In my secret heart

You desire truth inside
Where nothing else can hide
Where only the Spirit can guide
In my secret heart

Praying honestly
Delusionally free
That love reside's in me
In my secret heart

Take me broken as I am
Touch me with your healing hand
Make me whole and clean again

Readings
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. (Phil 4:7 ESV)

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” (John16:33 ESV)

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. (John14:27ESV)

Lift Up the Light of Your Face
Key me in when I cry out
O God make me aware
You have softened my rugged heart
Kindly turn your ear to my prayer

You've placed peacefulness by my side
All within my embrace
No earthly joy could ever equate
To being in your grace

There are many that ask
Who can we trust?
Lift up the light of your face
There are so many
Who only know mistrust
Lift up the light of your face

In the calm and quietude
I slumber restfully secure
For you alone, O my Love
You are all that's sure

Communion
Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you, for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.” 
(Matthew 26:26-29 ESV)

Come, Let Us Walk

Come, let us walk
Come, let us walk together
Come, let us walk together for good

Come, let us walk
Come, let us walk in hand
Come, let us walk in hand as one

Come, let us walk
Come, let us walk with one voice
Come, let us walk with one voice of peace

Come, let us walk
Come, let us walk in the light
Come, let us walk in the light of love
