Remembrance Day Service
Sunday 13th November 2016 at 11.30am
A very warm welcome to our Service of Remembrance
in Auchterarder Parish Church.
Introit (Choir) Flags are received by Rev Dr Rob Barlow
Praise Light of the World
Light of the world – you stepped down into darkness
Opened my eyes, let me see.
Beauty that made this heart adore you – hope of a life
spent with you
Here I am to worship – here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you’re my God
You’re altogether lovely – altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me.
King of all days – oh so highly exalted
Glorious in heaven above
Humbly you came to the earth you created – all for
love’s sake became poor
Here I am to worship – here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you’re my God
You’re altogether lovely – altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me.
SOLO: And I’ll never know how much it cost
to see my sin upon that cross
I’ll never know how much it cost to see
my sin upon that cross
Here I am to worship – here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you’re my God
You’re altogether lovely – altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me.
Prayer of approach and adoration
Ian Shering – United Free Church

Praise CH4 161 O God, our help in ages past
1. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home!
2. Under the shadow of thy throne
thy saints have dwelt secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defence is sure.
3. Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same. con’t over page
4. A thousand ages in thy sight
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5. Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
bears all its sons away;
they fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be thou our guard while troubles last,
and our eternal home.
Readings
Isaiah 65:17-22 Our Lady’s RC Church
Revelation 21:1-5 United Free Church
Sermon Rev Dr Rob Barlow
Praise CH528 Make me a channel of your peace
Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there is hatred let me bring your love;
where there is injury, your pardon, Lord;
and where there's doubt, true faith in you.
Oh, master, grant that I may never seek
so much to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved, as to love with all my soul.
Make me a channel of your peace.
Where there's despair in life let me bring hope;
where there is darkness, only light;
and where there's sadness, ever joy.
Make me a channel of your peace.
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
in giving to all men that we receive;
and in dying that we're born to eternal life.
Offering to Lady Haig Fund
Prayers of Commitment and Intercession
Dr John Ferguson-Smith
Praise CH4 419 Thine be the glory during which flags are returned
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
Endless is the victory, thou o’er death hast won;
Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
Kept the folded grave-clothes, where thy body lay.
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
Endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won.
Lo! Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
Lovingly He greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
Let the Church with gladness hymns of triumph
sing,
For her Lord now liveth; death hath lost its sting.
No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life;
Life is naught without thee: aid us in our strife;
Make us more than conquerors, through thy
deathless love:
Bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above.
Benediction Rev Dr Rob Barlow
CH4 703 (vs 1) God save the Queen
National Anthem (colour parties lower flag)
(at end of National Anthem flags are raised)
God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen:
Send her victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save the Queen.
Colour parties leave followed by uniformed organisation.
Piper plays.
