Croeso Welcome

O Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end;Be Thou forever near me,

My Master and my Friend;I shall not fear the battle If Thou art by my side,

Nor wander from the pathway If Thou wilt be my Guide.

Oh, let me feel Thee near me; The world is ever near;

I see the sights that dazzle, The tempting sounds I hear;

My foes are ever near me, Around me and within;

But, Jesus, draw Thou nearer, And shield my soul from sin.

Oh, let me hear Thee speaking, In accents clear and still,

Above the storms of passion, The murmurs of self-will;Oh, speak to reassure me,

To hasten, or control;Oh, speak, and make me listen,

Thou Guardian of my soul

O Jesus, Thou hast promised To all who follow Thee

That where Thou art in glory There shall Thy servant be;And Jesus, I have promised To serve Thee to the end;

Oh, give me grace to follow, My Master and my Friend.

Oh, let me see Thy footmarks, And in them plant mine own;

My hope to follow duly Is in Thy strength alone.

Oh, guide me, call me, draw me, Uphold me to the end;

And then to rest receive me, My Saviour and my Friend

For all the times when we make you feel sad

We want to say ............ Sorry Lord!

For all the times when we lie and cheat


For all the times when we are bad-tempered and

grumpy


For all the times when we are rude or naughty


For all the times when we know we are doing wrong


For all the times when we are selfish or unkind


For all the wrong things we do


Amen.

Our first reading today is from 1 Kings 18:20-21, 30-39

Will you come and follow me if I but call your name?

Will you go where you don't know and never be the same?

Will you let my love be shown? Will you let my name be known,

will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?

Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name?

Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same?

Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare?

Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?

Will you love the "you" you hide if I but call your name?

Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same?

Will you use the faith you've found to reshape the world around,

through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?

Lord your summons echoes true when you but call my name.

Let me turn and follow you and never be the same.

In Your company I'll go where Your love and footsteps show.

Thus I'll move and live and grow in you and you in me.

Prayers

We end our prayers with the prayer that Jesus taught us.

Our Father who art in heaven,Hallowéd be thy name.Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, Hallowed be thy name.

On the earth as it is in heaven,Hallowéd be thy name.Give us this day our daily bread,Hallowéd be thy name.

And forgive us all our sins,Hallowéd be thy name.As we forgive the sins of othersHallowéd be thy name.

And lead us not into temptation,Hallowéd be thy name.But deliver us from all that is evil, Hallowéd be thy name.

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory,Hallowéd be thy name.Forever and forever and ever,Hallowéd be thy name.Amen.

Oh! Oh! Oh! how good is the Lord. Oh! Oh! Oh! how good is the Lord. Oh! Oh! Oh! how good is the Lord.

I never will forget what he has done for me.

He gives me His promise, how good is the Lord. He gives me His promise, how good is the Lord. He gives me His promise, how good is the Lord.




He gives me salvation, how good is the Lord. He gives me salvation, how good is the Lord. He gives me salvation, how good is the Lord. I never will forget what he has done for me.



He gives me his blessing, how good is the Lord. He gives me his blessing, how good is the Lord. He gives me his blessing, how good is the Lord.


Let us go and journey in the world to love and serve our Lord. In the name of Christ.

Amen
