Holy God, we praise Thy name;
Lord of all, we bow before Thee.

Hymn for Communion Procession
Verse 1
O God, you search me, and you know me
All my thoughts lie open to your gaze
When I walk or lie down, you are before me
'Ever the maker and keeper of my daysVerse 2
You know my resting and my rising
You discern my purpose from afar
And with love everlasting, you besiege me
In every moment of life or death, you areVerse 3
Before a word is on my tongue, Lord
You have known its meaning through and through
You are with me beyond my understanding
God of my present, my past and future, tooVerse 4
Although your Spirit is upon me
Still I search for shelter from your light
There is nowhere on Earth I can escape you
Even the darkness is radiant in your sightVerse 5
For you created me and shaped me
Gave me life within my mother's womb
For the wonder of who I am, I praise you
Safe in your hands, all creation is made new
Recessional Hymn
Verse 1
God’s Spirit is in my heart,
He has called me and set me apart.
This is what I have to do,
what I have to do.Chorus
He has sent me to give the Good News to the poor,
Tell prisoners that they are prisoners no more,
Tell blind people that they can see,
And set the downtrodden free
And go tell everyone the news that Kingdom of God has come,
And go tell everyone the news that God’s Kingdom has come.
