Hymn: #117 O God, Our Help in Ages Past
1. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home!
2. Under the shadow of thy throne,
still may we dwell secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defense is sure.
3. Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting, thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4. A thousand ages, in thy sight,
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends the night,
before the rising sun.
5. Time, like an ever rolling stream,
bears all who breathe away;
they fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6. O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come;
be thou our guide while life shall last,
and our eternal home.
Prayer for Understanding: (Unison)
Bread of Heaven, fill us with your awareness in this present moment. Grant our minds the openness to see your world with childlike wonder. Nourish our hearts with the sustenance of seeing things as they truly are, non-judgmentally, so that we may assist you in bringing them to where they may be. All of this so that your prayer may be fulfilled: Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done. Amen.

her pure sacrifice of love; (Refrain)

peace on earth, and joy in heaven: (Refrain)

Recessional Hymn: #75 All People That On Earth Do Dwell
1. All people that on earth do dwell,
sing to the Lord with cheerful voice.
Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell;
come ye before him and rejoice.
2. Know that the Lord is God indeed;
without our aid he did us make;
we are his folk, he doth us feed,
and for his sheep he doth us take.
3. O enter then his gates with praise;
approach with joy his courts unto;
praise, laud, and bless his name always,
for it is seemly so to do.
4. For why! the Lord our God is good;
his mercy is forever sure;
his truth at all times firmly stood,
and shall from age to age endure.
