OUR WORSHIP IN SONG



The Opening Hymn: Alleluia! Gracious Jesus William C. Dix, manager of a marine inssurance company was also a gifted writer who made a significant contribution in hymnody. This hymn was written to fill a need for communion hymns in Church of England Hymnals.



The Middle Hymn: Come, O Fount of Every Blessing Converted to Methodism at age twenty, Robert Robinson soon became a Calvinistic Methodist preacher and later gained great popularity. The melody, associated with this text since 1813, is an American folk tune.


The Anthem: How Can I Keep from Singing? by John Carter.


The Communion Anthem: Peace I Leave With You By Walter L. Pelz.


The Closing Hymn: A Hymn of Glory Let Us Sing This Latin hymn by the Venerable Bede is possibly among the first Christian hymns written in England. Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica is an important source of early English history.

God is actively present in each tiny human even persuading us by loving visions to transform ourselves continually. God is one of our constant relationships. God is in the midst of our deepest processes. Like one unique voice in a choir, one special instrument in an orchestra that blends with the many others, God is present persuading the many to become one in beauteous harmony. - From Where in the World is God? by Robert Brizee
