M I N I S T R Y O F T H E W O R D

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful, and kindle in us the fire of Your Love. Send forth Your Spirit and we shall be created and You shall renew the face of the earth. O God, Who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit, we may be truly wise, and ever rejoice in Your consolations, through Christ our Lord, Amen. PROCESSIONAL HYMN ……………………………………..……………………….. 392 CPWI

When morning gilds the skies My heart awaking cries: May Jesus Christ be praised: Alike at work and prayer To Jesus I repair: May Jesus Christ be praised. Whene’er the sweet church bell Peals over hill and dell, May Jesus Christ be praised: O hark to what it sings, As joyously it rings, May Jesus Christ be praised. My tongue shall never tire Of chanting with the choir, May Jesus Christ be praised: This song of sacred joy, It never seems to cloy, May Jesus Christ be praised.

Does sadness fill my mind? A solace here I find, May Jesus Christ be praised: Or fades my earthly bliss? My comfort still is this, May Jesus Christ be praised. The night becomes as day, When from the heart we say, May Jesus Christ be praised: The powers of darkness fear, When this sweet chant they hear, May Jesus Christ be praised. Be this, while life is mine, My canticle Divine, May Jesus Christ be praised: Be this the eternal song Through ages all along, May Jesus Christ be praised.

INTROIT HYMN ……………………………………..……………………….. MEDLEY

“THY LOVING KINDNESS” Thy loving kindness is better than life Thy loving kindness is better than life My lips shall praise Thee, Thus will I bless Thee I will lift up my hands unto Thy Name I lift my hands up unto Thy Name I lift my hands up unto Thy Name My lips shall praise Thee, Thus will I bless Thee I will lift up my hands unto Thy Name “SEND DOWN THE RAIN” Send down the rain, Send down the rain,

Send down the Holy Ghost rain. * We need the rain… * There is power in the rain… * There is healing in the rain… “SURELY THE PRESENCE” Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place. I can feel His mighty power and His grace. I can hear the brush of angels wings. I see glory on each face. Surely the presence of the Lord is in this place.

At Gibeon the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask what I should give you.”

6 And Solomon said, “You have

shown great and steadfast love to Your servant my father David, because he walked before You in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart towards You; and You have kept for him this great and steadfast love, and have given him a son to sit on his throne today.

7 And now,

O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king in place of my father David, although I am only a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in.

8 And Your servant is in the midst of the people whom You have

chosen, a great people, so numerous they cannot be numbered or counted.

9 Give Your servant therefore an understanding mind to govern

Your people, able to discern between good and evil; for who can govern this Your great people?”

10 It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this.

11 God said to

him, “Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches, or for the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right,

12 I now do according to your

word. Indeed I give you a wise and discerning mind; no one like you has been before you and no one like you shall arise after you.

Reader: The Word of the Lord. Response: Thanks be to God. PSALM …………………………...…………………………………… 119:121-136 - BCP p636 SECOND LESSON

Readers: 7:00 am Wilton Gibson 9:30 am Youth Department Reader: A Reading from the Word of God written in Romans 8:26-34.

26

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words.

27 And God, Who searches the heart, knows what is the

mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

28 We know that all things work together for good for those who love

God, who are called according to His purpose. 29

For those whom He foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, in order that He might be the firstborn within a large family.

30 And those

5

whom He predestined He also called; and those whom He called He also justified; and those whom He justified He also glorified.

31 What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who

is against us? 32

He Who did not withhold His own Son, but gave Him up for all of us, will He not with Him also give us everything else?

33 Who will

bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God Who justifies. 34

Who is to condemn? It is Christ Jesus, Who died, yes, Who was raised, Who is at the right hand of God, Who indeed intercedes for us.

Reader: The Word of the Lord. Response: Thanks be to God.

GRADUAL HYMN …………………………...………………………………………….. 314 CPWI God of mercy, God of grace, Show the brightness of Thy face; Shine upon us, Saviour, shine, Fill Thy Church with light divine, And Thy saving health extend, Unto earth’s remotest end. Let the people praise Thee, Lord! Be by all that live adored; Let the nations shout and sing

Glory to their Saviour King, At Thy feet their tribute pay, And Thy holy will obey. Let the people praise Thee, Lord! Earth shall then her fruits afford, God to man His blessings give, Man to God devoted live; All below and all above One in joy and light and love.

+ THE GOSPEL + Reader: The Lord be with you. Response: And also with you. Reader: A reading from the Holy Gospel according to

Matthew 13:31-33, 44-49a. Response: Glory to Christ our Saviour.

31

He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field;

32 it is the

smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.”

33 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like

yeast that a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour until all of it was leavened.”

44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which

someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.”

45 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine

pearls; 46

on finding one pearl of great value, he went and sold all that he had and bought it.”

47 “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was thrown into

the sea and caught fish of every kind; 48

when it was full, they drew it ashore, sat down, and put the good into baskets but threw out the bad. 49

So it will be at the end of the age.”

6

Reader: This is the Gospel of Christ. Response: Praise to Christ our Lord. POST-GOSPEL HYMN ………………..……………………………….. “ANCIENT WORDS”

Holy words long preserved, for our walk in this world, They resound with God's own heart, O let the ancient words impart Words of Life, words of Hope, give us strength, help us cope In this world, where e'er we roam, ancient words will guide us Home.

Ancient words ever true, changing me and changing you, We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words impart

Holy words of our Faith, handed down to this age Came to us through sacrifice, O heed the faithful words of Christ. Holy words long preserved, for our walk in this world. They resound with God's own heart, O let the ancient words impart.

THE SERMON ……………………….. THE REV’D S. SEBASTIAN CAMPBELL POST-SERMON HYMN ………………..……………………….. 529 CPWI (1st verse & chorus)

Lord, the light of Your love is shining, In the midst of the darkness, shining; Jesus, Light of the World, shine upon us, Set us free by the truth You now bring us; Shine on me, shine on me. Shine, Jesus, shine, fill this land with the Father’s glory; Blaze, Spirit, blaze, set our hearts on fire. Flow, river, flow, flood the nations with grace and mercy; Send forth Your word, Lord, and let there be light.

My Jesus, I love Thee, I know that Thou art mine For Thee all the follies of sin I resign My gracious Redeemer, my Saviour art Thou If ever I loved Thee my Jesus ‘tis now. I love Thee because Thou hast first lovèd me And purchased my pardon on Calvary’s tree I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus ‘tis now. I’ll love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow If ever I loved Thee my Jesus ‘tis now. In mansions of glory and endless delight I’ll ever adore Thee and dwell in Thy sight; I’ll sing with the glittering crown on my brow If ever I loved Thee my Jesus ‘tis now.

416 CPWI

I the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my children cry, All who dwell in dark and sin, My hands will save, I who made the stars of night, I will make their darkness bright, Who will bear my light to them? Whom shall I send?

Here I am, Lord, Is it I, Lord? I have heard You calling in the night. I will go, Lord, if You lead me, I will hold Your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of snow and rain, I have borne my people’s pain, I have wept for love of them, they turn away. I will break their hearts of stone, give them hearts for love alone, I will speak My word to them, whom shall I send?

8

I, the Lord of wind and flame, I will tend the poor and lame, I will set a fear for them, My hand will save. Finest bread I will provide, till their hearts are satisfied, I will give My life to them, whom shall I send?

612 CPWI

O Jesus, Blessed Lord, to Thee My heartfelt thanks for ever be, Who hast so lovingly bestow’d On me Thy Body and Thy Blood.

Break forth, my soul, for joy, and say What wealth is come to me to-day! My Saviour dwells within me now; How blest am I! how good art Thou!

CHILDREN’S HYMN ………………..…………………………………. “WHEN HE COMETH” When He cometh, when He cometh, To make up His jewels, All His jewels, precious jewels, His loved and His own. Like the stars of the morning, His bright crown adorning, They shall shine in their beauty, Bright gems for His crown.

He will gather, He will gather The gems for His kingdom, All the pure ones, all the bright ones, His loved and His own. Little children, little children, Who love their Redeemer, Are the jewels, precious jewels, His loved and His own.

O praise ye the Lord! Praise Him in the height; Rejoice in His word, ye angels of light; Ye heavens, adore Him by Whom ye were made, And worship before Him, in brightness arrayed. O praise ye the Lord! Praise Him upon earth, In tuneful accord, ye sons of new birth; Praise Him Who hath brought you His grace from above, Praise Him Who hath taught you to sing of His love. O praise ye the Lord! All things that give sound; Each jubilant chord re-echo around; Loud organs, His glory forth tell in deep tone, And, sweet harp, the story of what He hath done. O praise ye the Lord! Thanksgiving and song To Him be outpoured all ages along: For love in creation, for heaven restored, For grace of salvation, O praise ye the Lord!

RECESSIONAL HYMN – 9:30 AM ……………………..…….... “HEAVEN’S JUBILEE”

Some glad morning we shall see Jesus in the air Coming after you and me joy is ours to share What rejoicing there will be when the saints shall rise Headed for that jubilee yonder in the sky

9

Oh what singing oh what shouting On that happy morning when we all shall rise Oh what glory hallelujah When we meet our blessed Saviour in the skies

Seems that now I almost see all the sainted dead Rising for that jubilee that is just ahead In the twinkling of an eye changed with them to be All the living saints to fly to that jubilee When with all the heavenly host we begin to sing Singing in the Holy Ghost how the heavens will ring Millions there will join the song with them we shall be Praising Christ through ages long heaven's jubilee

Prayer After Mass (Servers Prayer):

Glory to You Lord Jesus, glory to You. Grant that as I have served in Your presence, may we also come to serve in Your heavenly kingdom. In all things God be glorified. Amen.

Priest: The Mass is ended. Go in peace rejoicing in the power of the Holy Spirit.

People: Thanks be to God. Amen!!!
