Prelude

Welcome and Introduction
Hymn: Thine Be The Glory
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave-clothes, where thy body lay.
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,
endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won.
Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing,
for her Lord is living, death has lost its sting.
No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of Life;
life is nought without thee: aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above.

Hymn: Now Is The Hour
When we must say goodbye.
Soon you’ll be sailing
Far across the sea.
While you’re away
Oh, then, remember me.
When you return
You’ll find me waiting here.

Oh, then, remember me.
