Prelude
Hymn 177
Look, ye saints, the day is breaking,
Joyful times are near at hand;
God, the mighty God, is speaking
By His Word in every land:
Day advances, day advances,
Darkness flees at His command.
God of Jacob, high and glorious,
Let Thy people see Thy power;
Let the gospel be victorious
Through the world forevermore:
Then shall every idol perish,
While Thy faithful saints adore.

Readings

Silent Prayer
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever.
Hymn 136
I love Thy way of freedom, Lord,
To serve Thee is my choice,
In Thy clear light of Truth I rise
And, listening for Thy voice,
I hear Thy promise old and new,
That bids all fear to cease:
My presence still shall go with thee
And I will give thee peace.
Though storm or discord cross my path
Thy power is still my stay,
Though human will and woe would check
My upward-soaring way;
All unafraid I wait, the while
Thy angels bring release,
For still Thy presence is with me,
And Thou dost give me peace.
I climb, with joy, the heights of Mind,
To soar o’er time and space;
I yet shall know as I am known
And see Thee face to face.
Till time and space and fear are naught
My quest shall never cease,
Thy presence ever goes with me
And Thou dost give me peace.
Christian Science Hymnal, No. 136, Words: Violet Hay. Music: Irish Melody (HEAVENWARD).
