Welcome to our service of Holy Communion for Sunday 13 June 2021. Today our ALM Carol will offer a reflection, but we begin with the hymn “Brother, Sister, let me serve you”:
The service was recorded live here: https://fb.watch/65yOcxKrvz/
Carol’s reflection is here.
The anthem during communion is an arrangement of the Gloria, set to the tune “English Country Gardens”:
We conclude with the hymn “All my hope on God is founded”:
“Sing Glory to God” is in our orange hymn books, “Hymns Old and New”, published by Kevin Mayhew Ltd. The text is:
-
-
- Sing glory to God in the height of the heavens,
-
salvation and peace to his people on earth;
Our King and our Saviour, our God and our Father,
We worship and praise you and sing of your worth.
Creation unites in the power of the Spirit,
In praise of the Father, through Jesus the Son.
So complex, so simple, so clear, so mysterious,
Our God ever Three, yet eternally One.
-
-
- Our Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of the Father,
-
Lord God, Lamb of God, by the nations adored,
Your blood takes away all the sin of creation:
Have mercy upon us, for whom it was poured.
For you are our Saviour, our only Redeemer,
Who came all our gladness and sorrows to share:
You sit at the side, the right hand of the Father,
Have mercy upon us, and answer our prayer.
-
-
- For you only you, we acknowledge as holy,
-
We name you alone as our Saviour and Lord;
You only, O Christ, with the Spirit exalted,
Are one with the Father, for ever adored.
Creation unites in the power of the Spirit,
In praise of the Father, through Jesus the Son.
So complex, so simple, so clear, so mysterious,
Our God ever Three, yet eternally One.
