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

Communion | Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace
Where there is hatred let me so love Where there is injury Thy pardon, Lord Where there is doubt let there be faith
O Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace
Where there’s despair let me bring hope Where there is darkness let there be light Where there is sadness Let there be joy
O Divine Master Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console
To be understood as to understand To be loved as to love
O Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace
Where there is hatred let me so love For it is in giving that we receive And it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it is in dying (it is in dying) that we are born (that we are born) to eternal life to eternal life
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace An instrument of Thy peace Amen
Closing | Bless the Lord
Bless the Lord, O my soul Bless God’s holy name Bless the Lord, O my soul Bless God’s holy name
Remember the healing love of God who calls us to be whole and to be free
Bless the Lord, O my soul Bless God’s holy name Bless the Lord, O my soul Bless God’s holy name
Though earth be shaken though mountains quake God is our refuge where fear fades away
Rest in the silence and be filled with His peace as grace overtakes us at the altar of hope
Be still, be still and know that He is God Be still, be still and know that He is God
Be still, be still and know that He is God Be still, be still and know that He is God
Responsorial Psalm | Ps. 85 Lord, Let Us See Your Kindness
Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation.
R./ Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation.
I will hear what God proclaims; the LORD — for he proclaims peace. Near indeed is his salvation to those who fear him, glory dwelling in our land.
R./ Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation.
Kindness and truth shall meet; justice and peace shall kiss. Truth shall spring out of the earth, and justice shall look down from heaven.
R./ Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation.
The LORD himself will give his benefits; our land shall yield its increase. Justice shall walk before him, and prepare the way of his steps.
R./ Lord, let us see your kindness, and grant us your salvation.
Preparation of the Gifts | Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)
[For St. Stephen, start here. For OLMM, start at Bridge]
You call me out upon the waters The great unknown where feet may fail And there I find You in the mystery In oceans deep my faith will stand
And I will call upon Your Name And keep my eyes above the waves When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace For I am Yours and You are mine
Your grace abounds in deepest waters Your sovereign hand will be my guide Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me You’ve never failed and You won’t start now
So I will call upon Your Name And keep my eyes above the waves When oceans rise My soul will rest in Your embrace For I am Yours and You are mine, oh
And You are mine, oh
Bridge Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders Let me walk upon the waters Wherever You would call me Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander And my faith will be made stronger In the presence of my Saviour
Repeat
I will call upon Your Name Keep my eyes above the waves My soul will rest in Your embrace I am Yours and You are mine
