+ SONGS OF PRAISE Forever Reign Jason Ingram

You are good, You are good, when there’s nothing good in me,You are love, You are love, on display for all to see.You are light, You are light, when the darkness closes in,You are hope, You are hope, You have covered all my sin.

You are peace, You are peace, when my fear is crippling,You are true, You are true, even in my wandering.You are joy, You are joy, You’re the reason that I sing,You are life, You are life, in You death has lost its sting.

(Chorus) Oh I’m running to Your arms, I’m running to Your arms,The riches of Your love will always be enough.Nothing compares to Your embrace, light of the world forever reign.

You are more, You are more, than my words will ever say,You are Lord, You are Lord, all creation will proclaim.You are here, You are here, in Your presence I’m made whole,You are God, You are God, of all else I’m letting go. (Chorus Twice)

OFFERTORY Adonai Don KochTapestry

One single drop of rain, Your salty tear became blue ocean.One tiny grain of sand turning in your hand, a world in motion.You’re out beyond the furthest morning star,Close enough to hold me in Your arms.Adonai, I lift up my heart and I cry, my Adonai.You are Maker of each moment, Father of my hope and freedom. Oh, my Adonai.

HOLY COMMUNION INVITATION TO THE TABLE Clergy

We practice open communion. All are welcome at the table, which has been set for us by Christ.

Let us prepare to receive the joyful feast of the people of God.

WORDS OF INSTITUTION AND BLESSING OF THE ELEMENTS

COMMUNION MUSIC Tapestry Band

GIVING OF THE BREAD AND CUPAfter the Deacons have been served, ushers will invite each rowto come to any of the communion stations. Each person will receive the bread from the server and dip it into the chalice held by another server. An appropriate response to the server’s words is “Amen.” After receiving communion, return to your seat by the side aisle. If you wish to be served where you are seated, indicate this to an usher and communion will be brought to you. A gluten-free bread option is available from the servers in the East Transept.

PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING & LORD’S PRAYER Kai Brewster Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name.

Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
