Prelude: "Prayer op. 47 no. 4" by Alexandre Guilmant 

Sue Sparks

Favourite Hymns 

Ernie and Lynda Cox 

Give To Our God Immortal Praise

Give to our God immortal praise;

Mercy and truth are all his ways:

Wonders of grace to God belong;

Repeat his mercies in your song. 

He built the earth, he spread the sky,

And fixed the starry lights on high:

Wonders of grace to God belong;

Repeat his mercies in your song.

Through this vast world he guides our feet,

And leads us to his heavenly seat;

His mercies ever shall endure, 

When this our world shall be no more. 

Leaning On The Everlasting Arms

What a fellowship, what a joy divine,

Leaning on the everlasting arms;

What a blessedness, what a peace is mine,

Leaning on the everlasting arms. 

Refrain: 

Leaning, leaning, safe and secure from all alarms;

Leaning, leaning, leaning on the everlasting arms.

O how sweet to walk in this pilgrim way,

Leaning on the everlasting arms;

O how bright the path grows from day to day,

Leaning on the everlasting arms.

What have I to dread, what have I to fear,

Leaning on the everlasting arms?

I have blessed peace with my Lord so near,

Leaning on the everlasting arms.

Blest Be The Tie That Binds

Blest be the tie that binds our hearts in Christian love;

The fellowship of kindred minds is like to that above.

Before our Father’s throne we pour our ardent prayers;

Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, our comforts and our cares.

We share each other’s woes, each other’s burdens bear;

And often for each other flows the sympathizing tear.

When we are called to part, it gives us inward pain;

But we shall still be joined in heart, and hope to meet again.

2Kings 20:16-19 (NRSV)

16 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Hear the word of the Lord: 17 Days are coming when all that is in your house, and that which your ancestors have stored up until this day, shall be carried to Babylon; nothing shall be left, says the Lord. 18 Some of your own sons who are born to you shall be taken away; they shall be eunuchs in the palace of the king of Babylon.” 19 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “The word of the Lord that you have spoken is good.” For he thought, “Why not, if there will be peace and security in my days?”

Hymn: "To God Be The Glory"

Sue Sparks

To God be the glory, great things he has done,

So loved he the world that he gave us his Son,

Who yielded his life an atonement for sin,

And opened the life-gate that all may go in.

Refrain:

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the earth hear his voice!

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, let the people rejoice!

O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,

And give him the glory, great things he has done.

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,

To every believer the promise of God;

The vilest offender who truly believes,

That moment from Jesus a pardon receives. 

Great things he has taught us, great things he has done,

And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;

But purer and higher and greater will be

Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
