Gathering | We Gather In Love
We come to gather in our weakness
to reconnect as seekers
and worship one true God
We come to gather with the broken
whose words may go unspoken
We gather all as one
United in one Spirit
each different in appearance
all are welcome in the house of God
We gather in love
We come to claim the truth in Jesus
who gave His life to free us
and show us how to love
We come to light our lives on fire
With mercy, we inspire
and gather all as one
United in one Spirit
each different in appearance
all are welcome in the house of God
We gather in love
We gather in love

Communion | Let Me Hear Your Voice
Your voice is loud enough to make the mountains tremble
Your voice is soft enough to calm the raging sea
Your voice is firm enough to start the first creation
Your voice is whispering Your mysteries to me
Your voice proclaims Your goodness from the highest heavens
Your voice is roaring as I face my enemies
Your voice is gentle as You calm my greatest worries
Your voice was meant to simply speak words just to me
For You, O Lord, I wait in the dark
Deep in the silence of my heart
Let me hear Your voice
Let me hear Your voice
Deep in the silence of my heart
let me hear Your voice
Your voice is living in the sound of children laughing
Your voice is on our lips as we say our last goodbyes
Your voice is hidden in the lines of every scripture
For it is in our hearts that Your voice comes alive
For You, O Lord, I wait in the dark
Deep in the silence of my heart
Let me hear Your voice
Let me hear Your voice
Deep in the silence of my heart
let me hear Your voice
[Instrumental]
For You, O Lord, I wait in the dark
Deep in the silence of my heart
I can hear Your voice
I can hear Your voice
Deep in the silence of my heart
let me hear Your voice
Deep in the silence of my heart
let me hear Your……voice
Closing | There’s A Wideness In God’s Mercy
There is 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
There is welcome for the sinner
And a promised grace made good
There is mercy with the Savior
There is healing in Christ’s blood
There is grace enough for thousands
Of new worlds as great as this
There is room for fresh creations
In that upper home of bliss
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
O___may our lives be merciful
