Benediction – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Before the ending of the day
Creator of the world we pray
That you with steadfast love would keep
Your watch around us while we sleep
mmm…
From evil dreams defend our sight
From fears and terrors of the night
Tread underfoot our deadly foe
That we no sinful thought may know
mmm…
O Father that we ask be done
Through Jesus Christ your only son
And Holy Spirit by whose breath
Our souls are raised to life from death
mmm…
The Lorica - Music and Lyric by Gayle Salmond
I bind unto myself today
The gift to call on the Trinity
The saving faith where I can say
Come three in one, oh one in three
Be above me, as high as the noonday sun
Be below me, the rock I set my feet upon
Be beside me, the wind on my left and right
Be behind me, oh circle me with Your truth and light
I bind unto myself today
The love of Angels and Seraphim
The prayers and prophesies of Saints
The words and deeds of righteous men
God’s ear to hear me
God’s hand to guide me
God’s might to uphold me
God’s shield to hide me
Against all powers deceiving
Against my own unbelieving
Whether near or far
I bind unto myself today
The hope to rise from the dust of earth
The songs of nature giving praise
To Father, Spirit, Living Word

Who Condemns You Now – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Who condemns you now
Neither they nor I
Go and sin no more
Go and sin no more
Jesus Feed Us – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Again and again and again
To this table we come
Once a people estranged
Now as one in your name
In your mercy and grace
Forgiven of what we’ve confessed
By your body and blood
One last thing we request
To you we pray Jesus feed us
Feed us Jesus
Feed us Jesus
With your healing love
Embrace the Mystery – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Behold what you are
Become what you receive
Take up the bread and wine
Embrace the mystery

Gone is the Light – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Into the darkness we must go
Gone, gone is the light
Into the darkness we must go
Gone, gone is the light
Jesus remember me
When you come into your kingdom
Jesus remember me
When your kingdom comes
Father forgive them
They know not what they do
Father forgive them
They know not what they do
Praise the Father – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Who is the one to whom you belong
Who in your weakness has made you strong
Who fills your heart with joyful song
It is the Lord your God
Praise the Father, praise the Son
Praise the Spirit, three in One
Who was and is and is to come
All praise and honour and glory and power
O praise His name forever
Who is the One who for you died
Was mocked and spat at and crucified
Who rose from the dead and is glorified
It is the Lord your God
He Will Know – Music and Lyric by Byron O’Donnell and Brian Wakelin
When your heart is in despair
He will know
When you feel beyond repair
He will know
When your day is filled with tears
He will hear
When your night is filled with fear
He is near
When this world leaves you behind
He will know
When it all seems so unkind
He will know
Everything We Need – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
In the morning Lord we do look to you
For the strength we need just to make it through
Have mercy
a
In the evening Lord we look back and say
It was in your strength that we made our way
Have mercy
You are everything we need
Feed us Lord
Almighty God – Music and Lyric by Gord Johnson
Almighty God
To you all hearts are open
All desires known
No secrets are hidden
Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts
By the inspiration of your Holy Spirit
That we may perfectly love you
And worthily magnify your holy name
Through Christ our Lord
