Hark The Herald Angels/King of Heaven
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Peace on earth and mercy mild
God and sinners reconciled
Joyful all ye nations rise
Join the triumph of the skies
With angelic hosts proclaim
Christ is born in Bethlehem
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
Hail the heav'n born Prince of Peace
Hail the Son of righteousness
Light and life to all He brings
Risen with healing in His wings
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King
King of Heaven come down
King of Heaven come now
Let Your glory reign shining like the day
King of Heaven come
King of Heaven rise up
Who can stand against us
You are strong to save
In Your mighty name King of Heaven come
Christ by highest heaven adored
Christ the everlasting Lord
Late in time behold Him come
Offspring of a virgin's womb
Mild He lays His glory by
Born that man no more may die
Born to raise the sons of earth
Born to give them second birth
Hark the herald angels sing
Glory to the newborn King the newborn King
Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee
Joyful joyful we adore Thee
God of glory Lord of love
Hearts unfold like flow'rs before Thee
Opening to the sun above
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness
Drive the dark of doubt away
Giver of immortal gladness
Fill us with the light of day
All Thy works with joy surround Thee
Earth and heav'n reflect Thy rays
Stars and angels sing around Thee
Center of unbroken praise
Field and forest vale and mountain
Flowery meadow flashing sea
Chanting bird and flowing fountain
Call us to rejoice in Thee
Thou art giving and forgiving
Ever blessing ever blest
Wellspring of the joy of living
Ocean-depth of happy rest
Thou our Father Christ our Brother
All who live in love are Thine
Teach us how to love each other
Lift us to the joy divine
Mortals join the mighty chorus
Which the morning stars began
Father love is reigning o’er us,
Brother love binds man to man.
Ever singing march we onward
Victors in the midst of strife
Joyful music leads us sunward
In the triumph song of life
Sharing
Romans 12:9-18
Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.
Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.
Live in harmony with one another.
Do not be proud, but be willing to associate with people of low position.
Do not be conceited. Do not repay anyone evil for evil.
Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.
If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
Glory (Let There Be Peace)
One star
Burns in the darkness
Shines with the promise Emmanuel
One child
Born in the stillness
Living within us Emmanuel
We're singing Glory Glory
Let there be peace let there be peace
Singing Glory Glory
Let there be peace let it start in me
One voice
Speaks for the voiceless
Hope for the hopeless Emmanuel
One love
Brings us together
Now and forever Emmanuel
Do not be afraid
His love is strong enough to save us
Nothing stands in the way
His love is strong enough to lead us
Church Covenant
Because we have been led by the Grace of God to believe in
Jesus Christ as our only Lord, we now solemnly agree that:
We will bear each other’s burdens and sorrows with
tenderness and sympathy, share each other’s joys,
and love others as they are and not as we would like them to be.
We will promote the spiritual and physical welfare
of the people of any community of which we are a part
and support the work of the same kind in other parts of the world.
We will both learn and teach about being a Christian
so that we may all move closer to the truth.
We will carry our faith into our daily lives by being
honest and compassionate with each person we contact
and by placing the needs of people above
the needs of institutions and organizations.
May God give us the strength to carry our this Covenant.
Amen.
Communion
Partaking of the Bread
Partaking of the Cup
It Came Upon A Midnight Clear
It came upon the midnight clear
That glorious song of old
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold
Peace on the earth, good-will to men
From heav'n's all-gracious King
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing
