Gathering | Amazing Grace
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed
Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come
‘Tis grace has brought me safe thus far
And grace will lead me home
The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures
When we’ve been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we first begun

Communion | Hosea
Come back to me
with all your heart
Don’t let fear
keep us apart
Trees do bend
though straight and tall
so must we
to others’ call
Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life
The wilderness
will lead you
to your heart
where I will speak
Integrity
and justice
with tenderness
you shall know
Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life
You shall sleep
secure with peace
faithfulness
will be your joy
Long have I waited for your coming
home to me and living
deeply a new life
Communion (Alternate) | I Am the Bread of Life
I am the Bread of Life
You who come to Me shall not hunger
and who believe in Me shall not thirst
No one can come to Me
unless the Father beckons
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
on the last day
The bread that I will give
is My flesh for the life of the world
And if you eat of this bread
you shall live forever
you shall live forever
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
on the last day
I am the Resurrection
I am the Life
If you believe in Me
even though you die
you shall live forever
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
on the last day
Yes, Lord, I believe
that You are the Christ
The Son of God
who has come
into the world
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
And I will raise you up
on the last day
Reflection | Sino Ako
Hiram sa Diyos ang aking buhay
Ikaw at ako’y tanging handog lamang
Di ko ninais na ako’y isilang
Ngunit salamat dahil may buhay
Ligaya ko
ang ako’y isilang
Pagkat tao ay mayroong dangal
Sino’ng may pag ibig?
Sino’ng nagmamahal?
Kung di ang tao
Diyos ang pinagmulan
Kung di ako umibig
Kung di ko man bigyang halaga
Ang buhay na handog
Ang buhay ko’ng hiram sa Diyos
Kung di ako nagmamahal
Sino ako?
Reflection (Alternate) | I Will Be Here
Tomorrow morning if you wake up,
And the sun does not appear
I…I will be here
If in the dark we lose sight of love,
Hold my hand, and have no fear
Cause I…I will be here
I will be here when you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind,
I will listen and
I will be here when the laughter turns to cryin’
Through the winning, losing and tryin’
We’ll be together ’cause I will be here
Tomorrow morning if you wake up,
And the future is unclear
I…I will be here
As sure as seasons are made for change,
Our lifetime’s are made for years
So, I…I will be here
I will be here and you can cry on my shoulder,
When the mirror tells us we’re older,
I will hold you and
I will be here to watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me
I…I will be here
And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetime’s are made for years
So, I…I will be here we’ll be together
I will be here
Closing | On Eagle’s Wings
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord
who abide in His 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
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 His wings your refuge
His 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
And hold you in the palm of His hand
For to His angels, He’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 in the palm of His hand
