My Saviour, Lord, and King.
Recessional
We Form One Church
Verse 1
We form one Church, one Christian folk
Redeemed by God's own Son;
Refreshed by clear and saving streams
We share in graces won.
We break the Bread of Heaven
To feed us on our way,
We take the cup that brings us life
To celebrate his day.Verse 2
We know the kindness of his love
We know his will to save;
We know He's won the victory
O'er sin and o'er the grave.
To each of us is given
The fullness of his grace.
To live in joy a life of love
Until we see his face.Verse 3
Our hope is strong in Jesus Christ,
Our faith is in his name;
We know he seeks the sinful one
For that is why he came.
He cares for those who suffer
He loves both young and old,
A man of sorrows risen now,
As He himself foretold!
