Glory and Praise to Our God
© 1975 Dan Schutte and New Dawn Music
Chorus
Glory and praise to our God, who alone gives light to our days.
Many are the blessing he bears to those who trust in his ways.
1. We, the daughters and sons of him who built the valleys
and plains, praise the wonders our God has done in every
heart that sings.
2. In his wisdom he strengthens us, like gold that's tested in
fire. Though the power of sin prevails, our God is there to save.
3. Every moment of every day, our God is waiting to save,
always ready to seek the lost, to answer those who pray.
4. God has watered our barren land and spent his merciful
rain. Now the rivers of life run full for anyone to drink.

Sing a new song unto the Lord;

and let your trumpet sound.

Set Me Like A Seal
Set Me Like A Seal on your heart
Like a seal on your arm,
Set me like a seal on your heart,
How right it is to love you.
For love is stronger than death,
Stronger even than hell.
The flash of it is a flash of fire
The flame of Yahweh Himself.
Come then my love, come my beloved
No flame can Quench our love
Foe love, if real has no end
I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say
I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Come unto Me and rest;
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon My breast.”
I came to Jesus as I was, weary and worn and sad;
I found in Him a resting place, and He has made me glad.
I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Behold, I freely give
The living water; thirsty one, stoop down, and drink, and live.”
I came to Jesus, and I drank of that life giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, and now I live in Him.
I heard the voice of Jesus say, “I am this dark world’s Light;
Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, and all thy day be bright.”
I looked to Jesus, and I found in Him my Star, my Sun;
And in that light of life I’ll walk, till traveling days are done.
Canticle of the Sun

Refrain:
The heavens are telling the glory of God,
and all creation is shouting for joy.
Come dance in the forest, come, play in the field,
and sing, sing to the glory of the Lord.
Verse 1
Praise for the sun, the bringer of day,
he carries the light of the Lord in his rays;
the moon and the stars who light up the way
unto your throne.
Verse 2
Praise for the wind that blows through the trees,
the seas mighty storms, the gentlest breeze;
they blow where they will, they blow where they please
to please the Lord.
Verse 3
Praise for the rain that waters our fields,
and blesses our crops so all the earth yields;
from death unto life her mystery revealed
springs forth in joy.
Verse 4
Praise for the fire who gives us his light,
the warmth of the sun to brighten our night;
he dances with joy, his spirit so bright,
he sings of you.
Verse 5
Praise for the earth who makes life to grow,
the creatures you made to let your life show;
the flowers and trees that help us to know
the heart of love.
Verse 6
Praise for our death that makes our life real,
the knowledge of loss that helps us to feel;
the gift of your self, you presence revealed
to bring us home.
Peace is Flowing Like a River
1, 5. Peace is flowing like a river,
flowing out of you and me.
Flowing out into the desert,
setting all the captives free.
2. Love is flowing like a river,
flowing out of you and me.
Flowing out into the desert,
setting all the captives free.
3. Healing's flowing like a river,
flowing out of you and me.
Flowing out into the desert,
setting all the captives free.
4. Alleluia, alleluia.
Alleluia, alleluia.
Alleluia, alleluia.
Alleluia, alleluia.
Kelvingrove - Melody used by John Bell for The Summons
1. Will you come and follow me
If I but call your name?
Will you go where you don’t know
And never be the same?
Will you let my love be shown,
Will you let my name be known,
Will you let my life be grown
In you and you in me?
2. Will you leave yourself behind
If I but call your name?
Will you care for cruel and kind
And never be the same?
Will you risk the hostile stare
Should your life attract or scare?
Will you let me answer pray’r
In you and you in me?
3. Will you let the blinded see
If I but call your name?
Will you set the pris’ners free
And never be the same?
Will you kiss the leper clean,
And do such as this unseen,
And admit to what I mean
In you and you in me?
4. Will you love the ‘you’ you hide
If I but call your name?
Will you quell the fear inside
And never be the same?
Will you use the faith you’ve found
To reshape the world around,
Through my sight and touch and sound
In you and you in me?
5. Lord, your summons echoes true
When you but call my name.
Let me turn and follow you
And never be the same.
In your company I’ll go
Where your love and footsteps show.
Thus I’ll move and live and grow
In you and you in me.
Let us Break Bread Together
1. Let us break bread together on our knees, (on our knees)
let us break bread together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me)
2. Let us drink wine together on our knees, (on our knees)
let us drink wine together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me)
3. Let us praise God together on our knees, (on our knees)
let us praise God together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy on me. (on me)
4. Let us praise God together on our knees, (on our knees)
let us praise God together on our knees. (on our knees)
When I fall on my knees with my face to the rising sun,
O Lord, have mercy if you please. (if you please)
Look Beyond- Darryl Ducotte
Refrain:
Look beyond the Bread you eat. See your Savior and your Lord.
Look beyond the cup you drink. See His love poured out as Blood.
Refrain
Give us a sign that we might believe in You.
Moses had manna from the sky.
Refrain
I am the Bread which from the Heavens came.
Those who eat this Bread will never die.
Refrain
The Bread I give you will be My very flesh.
My Blood will truly be you drink.
Refrain
“This man speaks harshly. Who can listen to His word?
We shall no longer follow Him.”
Refrain
“You My disciples, will you also leave?”
“Lord to whom can we go?”
Come With Me into the Fields.
The fields are high and summer’s days are few,
green fields have turned to gold.
The time is here for the harvesting,
for gathering home into barns.
Refrain:
The harvest is plenty, laborers are few;
Come with me into the fields.
Your arms may grow weary;
your shoes will wear thin.
Come with me into the fields.
The seeds they were sown
by other hands than yours;
nurtured and cared for they grew.
But those who have sown will not harvest them;
the reaping will not be their care.
Refrain
Your eyes have seen the holy face of God,
hidden from those who are wise.
The reign of God is within your heart;
the kingdom of heaven is near.

Lord of All Hopefulness
lyrics: Jan Struther, 1901-1953
Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy,
Whose trust, ever childlike, no cares can destroy,
Be there at our waking, and give us, we pray,
Your bliss in our hearts, Lord, at the break of the day.
Lord of all eagerness, Lord of all faith,
Whose strong hands were skilled at the plane and the lathe,
Be there at our labors, and give us, we pray,
Your strength in our hearts, Lord at the noon of the day.
Lord of all kindliness, Lord of all grace,
Your hands swift to welcome, your arms to embrace,
Be there at our homing, and give us, we pray,
Your love in our hearts, Lord, at the eve of the day.
Lord of all gentleness, Lord of all calm,
Whose voice is contentment, whose presence is balm,
Be there at our sleeping, and give us, we pray,
Your peace in our hearts, Lord, at the end of the day.
City of God - Dan Schutte
1. Awake from your slumber! Arise from your sleep!
A new day is dawning for all those who weep.
The people in darkness have seen a great light.
The Lord of our longing has conquered the night.
Refrain
Let us build the city of God.
May our tears be turned into dancing!
For the Lord, our light and our love,
has turned the night into day!
2. We are sons of the morning; we are daughters of day.
The One who has loved us has brightened our way.
The Lord of all kindness has called us to be
a light for his people to set their hearts free.
3. God is light; in him there is no darkness.
Let us walk in his light, his children, one and all.
O comfort my people; make gentle your words.
Proclaim to my city the day of her birth.
4. O city of gladness, now lift up your voice!
Proclaim the good tidings that all may rejoice!
