Call to Worship
Behold, the home of God is with humans!
I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
Surely God is with us and for us to the very end of the age!
Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.
Come, let us live in the light of God’s presence!
God, creator of all, is with us.
We will live as humble creatures.
God, incarnate in Christ, is with us.
We stand amazed at the one who stands with us.
God, victorious over death, is with us.
We will follow Christ.
God, giving the gift of the Spirit, is with us.
We will live as new creatures.
God, making all things new, is with us.
We will live as people of hope.
Christ The Lord Is Risen Today
Lyrics by Charles Wesley | Music by Samuel Arnold
Christ the Lord is risen today alleluia
Mortals now with angels say alleluia
Raise your joys and triumphs high alleluia
Sing ye heav’ns and earth reply alleluia
Lives again our glorious King alleluia
Where, O death is now thy sting? alleluia
Once he died our souls to save alleluia
Where's thy vict’ry boasting grave? alleluia
Love's redeeming work is done alleluia
Fought the fight the battle won alleluia
Death in vain forbids Him rise alleluia
Christ hath opened paradise alleluia
Soar we now where Christ has led alleluia
Foll’wing our exalted Head alleluia
Made like Him like Him we rise alleluia
Ours the cross the grave the skies alleluia
Testimony
Paul Engels
The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make his face shine upon you
The Lord turn towards you and give you peace
Resurrection Hymn (See What a Morning)
© 2003 Keith Getty | Stuart Townend
See what a morning gloriously bright
With the dawning of hope in Jerusalem
Folded the grave-clothes tomb filled with light
As the angels announce Christ is risen
See God's salvation plan wrought in love
Borne in pain paid in sacrifice
Fulfilled in Christ the Man for He lives
Christ is risen from the dead
See Mary weeping where is He laid
As in sorrow she turns from the empty tomb
Hears a voice speaking calling her name
It's the Master the Lord raised to life again
The voice that spans the years
Speaking life stirring hope bringing peace to us
Will sound till He appears
For He lives Christ is risen from the dead
One with the Father Ancient of Days
Through the Spirit who clothes faith with certainty
Honour and blessing glory and praise
To the King crowned with pow’r and authority
And we are raised with Him
Death is dead love has won Christ has conquered
And we shall reign with Him
For He lives Christ is risen from the dead

We Will Feast in the House of Zion
© 2015 Joshua Moore | Sandra McCracken
We will feast in the house of Zion
We will sing with our hearts restored
He has done great things, we will say together
We will feast and weep no more
We will not be burned by the fire
He is the Lord, our God
We are not consumed by the flood
Upheld, protected, gathered up
In the dark of night, before the dawn
My soul, be not afraid
For the promised morning, oh, how long?
Oh, God of Jacob, be my strength
Every vow we've broken and betrayed
You are the Faithful one
And from the garden to the grave
Bind us together, bring shalom
