GATHERING SONG: ELW 641

All Are Welcome

Let us build a house where love can dwell

and all can safely live,

a place where saints and children tell

how hearts learn to forgive.

Built of hopes and dreams and visions,

rock of faith and vault of grace;

here the love of Christ shall end divisions:

All are welcome, all are welcome,

all are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where prophets speak,

and words are strong and true,

where all God's children dare to seek

to dream God's reign anew.

Here the cross shall stand as witness

and as symbol of God's grace;

here as one we claim the faith of Jesus:

All are welcome, all are welcome,

all are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where love is found

in water, wine and wheat:

a banquet hall on holy ground

where peace and justice meet.

Here the love of God, through Jesus,

is revealed in time and space;

as we share in Christ the feast that frees us:

All are welcome, all are welcome,

all are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where hands will reach

beyond the wood and stone

to heal and strengthen, serve and teach,

and live the Word they've known.

Here the outcast and the stranger

bear the image of God's face;

let us bring an end to fear and danger:

All are welcome, all are welcome,

all are welcome in this place.

Let us build a house where all are named,

their songs and visions heard

and loved and treasured, taught and claimed

as words within the Word.

Built of tears and cries and laughter,

prayers of faith and songs of grace,

let this house proclaim from floor to rafter:

All are welcome, all are welcome,

all are welcome in this place.

Lead me, Guide Me

For if You lead me I cannot not stray

Lord let me walk, each day with Thee

Lead me oh Lord lead me

I am weak and I need Thy strength and power

To help me over my weakest hour

Help me through the darkness Thy face to see

Lead me oh Lord lead me

Lead me, guide me along the way,

For if You lead me I cannot stray.

Lord let me walk each day with Thee.

Lead me, oh Lord lead me.

Help me tread in the paths of righteousness.

Be my aid when Satan and sin oppress.

I am putting all my trust in Thee:

Lead me, oh Lord lead me.

Lead me, guide me along the way,

For if You lead me I cannot stray.

Lord let me walk each day with Thee.

Lead me, oh Lord lead me.

I am lost if You take Your hand from me,

I am blind without Thy light to see.

Lord just always to me Thy servant be,

Lead me, oh Lord lead me.

For if You lead me I cannot stray.

COMMUNION SONG 1:

In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found

He is my light my strength my song

This Cornerstone this solid Ground

Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

What heights of love what depths of peace

When fears are stilled when strivings cease

My Comforter my All in All

Here in the love of Christ I stand

In Christ alone who took on flesh

Fullness of God in helpless babe

This gift of love and righteousness

Scorned by the ones He came to save

Till on that cross as Jesus died

The wrath of God was satisfied

For every sin on Him was laid

Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay

Light of the world by darkness slain

Then bursting forth in glorious Day

Up from the grave He rose again

And as He stands in victory

Sin's curse has lost its grip on me

For I am His and He is mine

Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No guilt in life no fear in death

This is the power of Christ in me

From life's first cry to final breath

Jesus commands my destiny

No power of hell no scheme of man

Can ever pluck me from His hand

Till He returns or calls me home

Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

Go My Children with My Blessing

“Go, my children, with my blessing, never alone.

Waking, sleeping, I am with you, you are my own.

In my love’s baptismal river

I have made you mine forever.

Go, my children, with my blessing, you are my own.”

“Go, my children, sins forgiven, at peace and pure.

Here you learned how much I love you, what I can cure.

Here you heard my dear Son’s story,

here you touched him, saw his glory.

Go, my children, sins forgiven, at peace and pure.”

“Go, my children, fed and nourished, closer to me.

Grow in love and love by serving, joyful and free.

Here my Spirit’s power filled you,

here my tender comfort stilled you.

Go, my children, fed and nourished, joyful and free.”

SENDING SONG: ELW 787

On Eagle's Wings

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,

who abide in this shadow for life,

say to the Lord: "My refuge,

my rock in whom I trust!"

And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,

bear you on the breath of dawn,

make you to shine like the sun,

and hold you in the palm of his hand.

The snare of the fowler will never capture you,

and famine will bring you no fear;

under God's wings your refuge,

with faithfulness your shield. 

And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,

bear you on the breath of dawn,

make you to shine like the sun,

and hold you in the palm of his hand.

You need not fear the terror of the night,

nor the arrow that flies by day;

though thousands fall about you,

near you it shall not come. 

And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,

bear you on the breath of dawn,

make you to shine like the sun,

and hold you in the palm of his hand.

For to the angels God's given a command

to guard you in all of your ways;

upon their hands they will bear you up,

lest you dash your foot against a stone.

And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,

bear you on the breath of dawn,

make you to shine like the sun,

and hold you in the palm of his hand;

and hold you, hold you in the palm of his hand.

SONG OF THE DAY: ELW 412

Come, Join the Dance of Trinity

Come, join the dance of Trinity,

before all worlds begun—

the interweaving of the Three,

the Father, Spirit, Son.

The universe of space and time

did not arise by chance,

but as the Three, in love and hope,

made room within their dance.

Come, see the face of Trinity,

newborn in Bethlehem;

then bloodied by a crown of thorns

outside Jerusalem.

The dance of Trinity is meant

for human flesh and bone;

when fear confines the dance in death,

God rolls away the stone.

Come, speak aloud of Trinity,

as wind and tongues of flame

set people free at Pentecost

to tell the Savior's name.

We know the yoke of sin and death,

our necks have worn it smooth;

go tell the world of weight and woe

that we are free to move!

Within the dance of Trinity,

before all worlds begun,

we sing the praises of the Three,

the Father, Spirit, Son.

Let voices rise and interweave,

by love and hope set free,

to shape in song this joy, this life:

the dance of Trinity.

Sustaining God, your hands uphold

earth's myst'ries known or yet untold;

let water's fragile blend with air,

enabling life, proclaim your care.

Redeeming God, your arms embrace

all now despised for creed or race;

let peace, descending like a dove,

make known on earth your healing love.

Indwelling God, your gospel claims

one fam'ly with a billion names;

let ev'ry life be touched by grace

until we praise you face to face.

GATHERING SONG: ELW 396

Spirit of Gentleness

Spirit, Spirit of gentleness,

blow through the wilderness calling and free;

Spirit, Spirit of restlessness,

stir me from placidness, wind, wind on the sea.

You moved on the waters, you called to the deep,

then you coaxed up the mountains

from the valleys of sleep;

and over the eons you called to each thing:

"Awake from your slumbers

and rise on your wings."

Spirit, Spirit of gentleness,

blow through the wilderness calling and free;

Spirit, Spirit of restlessness,

stir me from placidness, wind, wind on the sea.

You swept through the desert,

you stung with the sand,

and you goaded your people with a law and a land;

and when they were blinded with idols and lies,

then you spoke through your prophets

to open their eyes.

Spirit, Spirit of gentleness,

blow through the wilderness calling and free;

Spirit, Spirit of restlessness,

stir me from placidness, wind, wind on the sea.

You sang in a stable, you cried from a hill,

then you whispered in silence

when the whole world was still;

and down in the city you called once again,

when you blew through your people

on the rush of the wind.

Spirit, Spirit of gentleness,

blow through the wilderness calling and free;

Spirit, Spirit of restlessness,

stir me from placidness, wind, wind on the sea.

You call from tomorrow,

you break ancient schemes.

From the bondage of sorrow

all the captives dream dreams;

our women see visions, our men clear their eyes.

With bold new decisions your people arise.

Spirit, Spirit of gentleness,

blow through the wilderness calling and free;

Spirit, Spirit of restlessness,

stir me from placidness, wind, wind on the sea.

COMMUNION SONG 1: Ken Canudo

Fish with Me

Jesus saw them fishing by the shore of Galilee,

casting out their nets into the sea.

Simon Peter, Andrew and the sons of Zebedee,

waiting in their boats…so patiently.

And Jesus said,

“Oh, come and follow me.

Oh, leave behind your nets. I call you.

Oh, come and fish with me,

and your life will never be the same again.”

A rich young person came to Jesus

looking for advice.

“How can I obtain eternal life?”

Jesus told him,

“Honour the commandments of the Lord.

Then sell off all your riches…for the poor.”

And Jesus said,

“Oh, come and follow me.

Oh, leave behind your nets. I call you.

Oh, come and fish with me,

and your life will never be the same again.”

Those who save their lives will lose them.

Those who lose their lives will save them.

For what profit does it show if you gain the world

but lose your soul, your soul?

 “If you want to follow me, deny your very self.

Take up your cross and walk the walk with me.

This might seem a hardship, an impossibility,

but nothing is impossible…with God.”

And Jesus said,

“Oh, come and follow me.

Oh, leave behind your nets. I call you.

Oh, come and fish with me,

and your life will never be the same again.”

Yes, your life will never be the same again.

Oh, your life will never be the same…

COMMUNION SONG 2: ELW 614

There Is a Balm in Gilead

There is a balm in Gilead

to make the wounded whole;

there is a balm in Gilead

to heal the sin-sick soul.

Sometimes I feel discouraged

and think my work's in vain,

but then the Holy Spirit

revives my soul again. 

There is a balm in Gilead

to make the wounded whole;

there is a balm in Gilead

to heal the sin-sick soul.

If you cannot preach like Peter,

if you cannot pray like Paul,

you can tell the love of Jesus

and say, "He died for all." 

There is a balm in Gilead

to make the wounded whole;

there is a balm in Gilead

to heal the sin-sick soul.

Don't ever be discouraged,

for Jesus is your friend;

and if you lack for knowledge

he'll ne'er refuse to lend. 

There is a balm in Gilead

to make the wounded whole;

there is a balm in Gilead

to heal the sin-sick soul.
