May the Words of my Mouth Tramm *HYMN May Jesus Christ Be Praised Caswall/Barnby

When morning gilds the skies,My heart awaking cries:May Jesus Christ be praised!Alike at work and prayerTo Jesus I repair,May Jesus Christ be praised!

Does sadness fill my mind?A solace here I find,May Jesus Christ be praised!Or fades my earthly bliss?My comfort still is this,May Jesus Christ be praised!

The night becomes as day,When from the heart we say,May Jesus Christ be praised!The powers of darkness fearWhen this sweet chant they hear,May Jesus Christ be praised!

Ye nations of mankind,In this your concord find,May Jesus Christ be praised!Let all the earth aroundRing joyous with the sound, May Jesus Christ be praised!

Sing, suns and stars of space;Sing, ye that see His face,May Jesus Christ be praised!God’s whole creation o’er,For aye and evermore,May Jesus Christ be praised!

Be this, while life is mine,My canticle divine,May Jesus Christ be praised!Be this th’eternal songThro’ all the ages long,May Jesus Christ be praised!

*APOSTLES’ CREEDI believe in God the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth: and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord: who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried; the third day He arose from the dead; He ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.

Amen.

SERMON A Life that SingsBishop Peter Weaver

*CLOSING HYMN How Great Thou Art

Stuart K. HineO Lord my God!

when I in awesome wonder,Consider all the worlds

Thy Hands have made;I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,Thy power throughout

the universe displayed.Refrain:Then sings my soul,

my Saviour God to Thee;How great Thou art, how great Thou art!Then sings my soul,

my Saviour God to Thee,How great Thou art, how great Thou art!When through the woods

and forest glades I wander,And hear the birds sing sweetly

in the trees;When I look down

from lofty mountain grandeurAnd hear the brook,

and feel the gentle breeze;RefrainAnd when I think that God,

His Son not sparing,Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;

That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,

He bled and died to take away my sin;RefrainWhen Christ shall come

with shout of acclamationAnd take me home,

what joy shall fill my heart.Then I shall bow in humble adoration,And there proclaim,

“My God, how great Thou art!”Refrain
