Prelude
Hymn 464
Dear Master, may I follow thee
With holy, deep sincerity,
Forming each thought to Christly mold,
Feeling your peace my heart enfold.
Lead me to worship God aright,
In truth, in spirit, seek the light;
Loving pure good with heart and soul,
Loving each neighbor, perfect, whole.
May I perceive all being one,
Perfect Father, perfect son;
Let me hold fast this heavenly view,
Finding each day my life made new.
May I see mortal self dissolve,
Take up the cross with firm resolve,
Seeking the victor’s crown each day,
Humble and loving all the way.
Hymn 464. Words: W. Brian Cork. Music: W. Brian Cork; arr. CSPS (ARNISDALE).

Silent Prayer
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Hymn 542
O Life that maketh all things new,
The blooming earth, the thoughts of men;
Our pilgrim feet, wet with Your dew,
In gladness hither turn again.
From hand to hand the greeting flows,
From eye to eye the signals run,
From heart to heart the bright hope glows,
The seekers of the Light are one:
One in the freedom of the truth,
One in the joy of paths untrod,
One in the heart’s perennial youth,
One in the larger thought of God;—
The freer step, the fuller breath,
The wide horizon’s grander view;
The sense of Life that knows no death,—
The Life that maketh all things new.
Hymn 542. Words: Samuel Longfellow, alt. Music: Andrew D. Brewis, alt. (NEWSONG).
