Gather us in, the lost and forsaken; gather us in, the blind and the lame; call to us now, and we shall awaken; we shall arise at the sound of our name. continued

3 2 We are the young; our lives are a mystery. We are the old who yearn for your face. We have been sung throughout all of history, called to be light to the whole human race. Gather us in, the rich and the haughty; gather us in, the proud and the strong; give us a heart, so meek and so lowly; give us the courage to enter the song. 3 Here we will take the wine and the water; here we will take the bread of new birth. Here you shall call your sons and your daughters, call us anew to be salt for the earth. Give us to drink the wine of compassion; give us to eat the bread that is you; nourish us well, and teach us to fashion lives that are holy and hearts that are true. 4 Not in the dark of buildings confining, not in some heaven, light years away: here in this place the new light is shining; now is the kingdom, and now is the day. Gather us in and hold us forever; gather us in and make us your own; gather us in, all peoples together, fire of love in our flesh and our bone. Prayer of Confession If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. John 1:9 PRAYER OF CONFESSION ELDER TOM PANSINO CONFESSION SONG Calling Out to You Lord, You have told us, Lord, You have promised That if Your people would pray, That You would hear from heaven, And You would send Your mercy And touch us with Your strong, healing hand. (Chorus) So we're calling out to You, Crying out to You, Forgive us of our sin, heal our land. As we seek Your holy face, We turn from all our wicked ways. Hear from heaven even now; as we pray CCLI Lic #268563

ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS *SONG OF RESPONSE He Reigns It s the song of the redeemed rising from the African plain It s the song of the forgiven drowning out the Amazon rain The song of Asian believers filled with God s holy fire It s every tribe, every tongue every nation. A love song born of a grateful choir. (chorus) It s all God s children singing Glory, glory! Hallelujah! He reigns! He reigns! It s all God s children singing Glory, glory! Hallelujah! He reigns! Let it rise above the four winds, caught up in the heavenly sound Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals to the faithful gathered underground Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation, some were meant to persist Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples, none rings truer than this (chorus 2x) (bridge) And all the powers of darkness tremble at what they ve just heard Cause all the powers of darkness can t drown out a single word (chorus) When all God s children sing out Glory, glory!
