PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE
Alex Lang Judy Hockenberry
LORD’S PRAYER Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen.
SHARING OUR GIFTS “Jesus, the Very Thought of Thee” Catherine Davis “Jesus, the very thought of thee with sweetness fills my breast; But sweeter far thy face to see and in thy presense rest. Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame, Nor can the memory find a sweeter sound than thy blest name, O Savior of mankind! O hope of every contrite heart, O joy of all the meek, To those who fall, how kind thou art! How good to those who seek! Jesus, our only joy be thou, As thou our prize wilt be; Jesus, be thou our glory now, And thru eternity.” Women’s Chorus; Paige Orals, oboe
