Sunday Morning Live!  -  1st August, 2010

 

Welcome to our Sunday Morning Live Celebration.

 

Our theme today, following on from our brilliant Holiday Club is to do with shining from the inside out!

 

After the introduction we stand to sing our opening hymn:

Shine!

 

Shine … from the inside out

So the world can see

You live in me!

Shine … from the inside out

So the world can see

You live in me!

 

You know me and you love me,

So fill me and send me to …

 

Shine … etc

 

Know me, love me, fill me, send me!

Know me, love me, fill me, send me!

Know me, love me, fill me, send me to …

 

Shine … etc

 

Fr. Marcus helps us prepare for worship, and explores some of the great things we did at Holiday Club.

 

We sing our next song:

The Wise Man Built His House

 

The wise man built his house upon the rock,

The wise man built his house upon the rock,

The wise man built his house upon the rock,

And the rain came tumbling down.

 

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

And the house on the rock stood firm.

 

The foolish man built his house upon the sand,

The foolish man built his house upon the sand,

The foolish man built his house upon the sand,

And the rain came tumbling down.

 

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

The rain came down and the floods went whoosh!

And the house on the sand went splat!

 

Peter tells the story of the “Two Sons” and we unpack what that means for us.

 

We sing:

Build up

 

Every word you say          (whoa!)

Every game you play          (whoa!)

Every silly face              (whoa!)

Every single place          (whoa!)

You – can – build – up

1! 2! 3! 4! 5!

Or you can tear down…

 

Build up one another

Build up your sisters and brothers

Build up one another

B U I ---- I L ---- D     UP!

 

Every joke you tell          (whoa!)

Every name you spell          (whoa!)

Everywhere you go          (whoa!)

Everyone you know          (whoa!)

You – can – build – up

1! 2! 3! 4! 5!

Or you can tear down

 

Build up etc

 

Can you build up? (We can build up!)

Can you build up? (Yes we can!)

 

Every song you sing          (whoa!)

Every bell you ring          (whoa!)

Every thing you spend (whoa!)

Every special friend          (whoa!)

You – can – build – up

1! 2! 3! 4! 5!

Or you can tear down

 

Build up etc

 

 

We are led in prayer, and all join together for the Lord’s Prayer

As our Saviour taught us, so we pray:

All    Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

 

 

Fr. Marcus gives the Blessing, and then we sing our final hymn:

Shine, Jesus, shine!

 

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!

 

Lord, I come to Your awesome presence,

From the shadows into Your radiance;

By Your blood I may enter Your brightness;

Search me, try me, consume all my darkness,

Shine on me, shine on me.

 

Shine, Jesus, shine…

 

 

As we gaze on Your kingly brightness,

So our faces display Your likeness,

Ever changing from glory to glory:

Mirrored here may our lives tell Your story,

Shine on me, shine on me.

 

Shine, Jesus, shine…

 

Please join us for refreshments after the service
