This is My Father’s World
LYRICS
1. This is my Father’s world, and to my listening ears,
all nature sings and round me rings the music of the spheres.
This is my Father’s world; I rest me in the thought
of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
God’s hands the wonders wrought.
2. This is my Father’s world; the birds their carols raise,
the morning light, the flowers bright, declare their Maker’s praise.
Our God has made this world and shines in all that’s fair;
in rustling grass I hear God pass, who speaks to me everywhere.
Come, Share the Lord
LYRICS
1. We gather here in Jesus’ name, his love is burning in our hearts like living flame;
For through the loving Son the Father makes us one;
Come take the bread, come drink the wine, come share the Lord.
No one is a stranger here, everyone belongs,
Finding our forgiveness here, we in turn forgive all wrongs.
2. He joins us here, he breaks the bread,
the Lord who pours the cup is risen from the dead!
The one we love the most is now our gracious host:
Come take the bread, come drink the wine, come share the Lord.
We are now a family of which the Lord is head;
Through unseen he meets us here in the breaking of the bread.
3. We’ll gather soon where angels sing;
we’ll see the glory of our Lord and coming King;
Now we anticipate the feast for which we wait;
Come take the bread, come drink the wine, come share the Lord.
Just a Closer Walk with Thee
LYRICS
Refrain: Just a closer walk with Thee, grant it Jesus is my plea,
Daily walking close to Thee; let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
1. I am weak, but thou art strong; Jesus keep me from all wrong;
I’ll be satisfied as long as I walk, let me walk close to Thee.
REFRAIN
2. Through this world of toil and snares, if I falter Lord who cares?
Who with me my burden share? None but Thee dear Lord, none but thee.
REFRAIN
3. When my feeble life is o’er, time for me will be no more;
Guide me gently safely o’er to thy shore, dear Lord, to thy shore.
REFRAIN
