Welcoming My Peace (As we return to our seats.)  Rev. Christine Dickerson
R
Spirit, spirit of gentleness,
Blow through the wilderness, calling and free,
Spirit, spirit of restlessness,
Stir me from placidness,
Wind, wind on the sea.

1
You moved on the waters,
You called to the deep,
Then You coaxed up the mountains
From the valleys of sleep,
And over the eons
You called to each thing,
"Awake from your slumbers
And rise on your wings."

R...

2
You swept through the desert,
You stung with the sand,
And You goaded your people
With a law and a land,
And when they were confounded
With idols and lies,
Then You spoke through Your prophets
To open their eyes.

R...

3
You sang in a stable,
You cried from a hill,
Then You whispered in silence
When the whole world was still,
And down in the city
You called once again
When You blew through Your people
On the rush of the wind.

R...

4
You call from tomorrow,
You break ancient schemes,
From the bondage of sorrow
The captives dream dreams;
Our women see visions,
Our men clear their eyes.
With bold new decisions
Your people arise.

R...

Life of the Church Special Music  Elder Kay Chabot
Loving God, we know there are times we feel surrounded by hopelessness. We do not know where to turn. We feel life has left us and those we love, and find ourselves longing for endings. Yet you, God, come to us even in those times. You challenge us. You remind us that you are a God of forgiveness, hope and life. You invite us to proclaim a message of life in the midst of despair. Receive, then, our confession, and fill us with the breath of new life and forgiveness. Amen,

Passing of the Peace Spirit, Spirit of Gentleness  Congregation
Who is in a position to condemn? Only Christ, and Christ died for us, was risen for us, and reigns in power over us, Sisters and brothers hear this good news. Through Christ we are forgiven and reconciled with the Creator of all.

Prelude Gloria Patri  Praise Band
1
O for a thousand tongues to sing
my dear Redeemer's praise,
the glories of my God and King,
the triumphs of God’s grace!

2
The name of Jesus charms our fears,
and bids our sorrows cease,
sings music in the sinner’s ear,
brings life, and health, and peace.

Be now and ever given
By saints below and saints above,
The church in earth and heaven.
