Come, now is the time to worship
Come, now is the time to give your heart
Come, just as you are to worship
Come, just as you are before your God
Come

The Lord is kind___and merciful
The Lord is kind___and merciful

O my soul
and all my being

Communion | Miracle of Grace

Miracle of grace
mystery of faith
calling us to venture to the deep
Though our senses fail
Your graces still prevail
and we become that love that we receive

Bread of Life
Bread of Life
Those who eat this bread shall live and never die
Bread of Life
Bread of Life
Your true presence in this holy sacrifice
Bread of Life

Unworthy though we are
You feed the hungry heart
with bread come down from heaven above
And like a grain of wheat
we fall down at Your feet
dying here with You, Oh, let us rise

Bread of Life
Bread of Life
Those who eat this bread shall live and never die
Bread of Life
Bread of Life
Your true presence in this holy sacrifice
Bread of Life
Bread of Life
Bread of Life

Closing | There’s A Wideness In God’s Mercy

There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
like the wideness of the sea
There’s a kindness in God’s justice
which is more than liberty

There is plentiful redemption
in the blood that has been shed
There is joy for all the members
in the sorrows of the Head

So be merciful
just as our God is merciful
Be merciful
just as our God is merciful to us
Let there be a wideness in our mercy
Let there be a kindness in our hearts
Oh, may our lives be merciful
