Hymn: Morning Has Broken

Morning Has Broken

Words: Eleanor Farjeon (1881-1965)
Music: Gaelic melody

Morning has broken
Like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken
Like the first bird
1/6
Praise for the singing,
Praise for the morning
Praise for them springing
Fresh from the word
2/6
Sweet the rain's new fall,
Sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall,
On the first grass
3/6
Praise for the sweetness
Of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness
Where his feet pass
4/6
Mine is the sunlight,
Mine is the morning
Born of the one light,
Eden saw play
5/6
Praise with elation,
Praise every morning
God's recreation
Of the new day
6/6

Mothering Sunday

God of compassion,
whose Son Jesus Christ, the child of Mary,
shared the life of a home in Nazareth,
and on the cross drew the whole human family to himself:

strengthen us in our daily living
that in joy and in sorrow
we may know the power of your presence
to bind together and to heal;

in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.

John 19:25-27

read by Beavers

Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene.
John 19:25
When Jesus saw his mother there, and the disciple whom he loved standing nearby, he said to her, "Woman, here is your son,"
John 19:26
and to the disciple, "Here is your mother." From that time on, this disciple took her into his home.
John 19:27

Hymn: To God Be The Glory

To God Be The Glory

Words: Fanny Crosby (1820-1915)
Music: William H Doane (1832-1915)

To God be the glory, great things he has done;
So loved he the world that he gave us his Son,
Who yielded his life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life-gate that all may go in.
1/6
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,
And give him the glory; great things he has done.
2/6
O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.
3/6
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,
And give him the glory; great things he has done.
4/6
Great things he has taught us, great things he has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer and higher and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.
5/6
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the earth hear his voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord; let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father through Jesus the Son,
And give him the glory; great things he has done.
