Awake to the day
Awake to the day of the coming of the Lord.Sing out! Rejoice in this land.
Make straight the way for the Kingdom of God is at hand
Verse 1
Signs in the sun and the moon and the stars,
We prepare for you ,Lord.
Then all shall sing of the power of God.
We prepare for you Lord. as long as the sun shall remain so the name of the Lod God will reign.
Verse 2
Wrapped in the cloak of justice from God, We prepare for you, Lord.
Gathered at the word of the Holy One, We prepare for you Lord.
Every mountain and hill be made low that the Glory of God we may know.

Psalm
For you, O Lord, my soul in stillness waits, truly my hope is in you.

The Nicene Creed
I believe in one God,
the Father almighty,
maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God, Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father;
through him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
he came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
he suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead
and his kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come. Amen.

All Who are Thirsty

Verse 1
All who are thirsty
All who are weak
Come to the fountain
Dip your heart in the stream of life
Let the pain and the sorrow
Be washed away
In the waves of His mercy
As deep cries out to deep
(We sing)
Chorus 1
Come Lord Jesus come
Come Lord Jesus come
(REPEAT)
Chorus 2
Holy Spirit come
Holy Spirit come

I Am the Bread of Life
Steve Angrisano and Tom Booth

I am the Bread of Life, I am the hope in night,
I am the door wide open, I am the shepherd’s might,
I am the truth and light, I am the way and life,
I Am Who Am and I am for you: come and follow me.

I am bread for the world, hope for the hopeless.
Come to me, and know that I’ll always be there with my arms open wide.
I Am Who Am and I am for you: come and follow me.
I give my heart to those in sorrow, I come to those who are in need;
Hope for today and for tomorrow, light for all who want to see.
O come, O come, Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Refrain
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,
Who orderest all things mightily;
To us the path of knowledge show,
And teach us in her ways to go.
Refrain
O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan’s tyranny;
From depths of hell Thy people save,
And give them victory over the grave.
