Gather your people, O Lord.
Gather your people, O Lord.
One bread, one body, one spirit of love.
Gather your people, O Lord.

1. Draw us forth to the table of life:
brothers and sisters,
each of us called to walk in your light.

2. We are parts of the body of Christ,
needing each other,
each of the gifts the Spirit provides.

3. No more harm on the mountain of God;
swords into plowshares.
Free us, O Lord, from hardness of heart.

4. (extra verse as sprinkling song)
Wash us, Lord, in the waters of life;
waters of mercy,
waters of hope that flow from your side.


Rite of Blessing  408 Come to the water

(keyboard only)
1. O let all who thirst, let them come to the water.
And let all who have nothing, let them come to the Lord:
without money, without price. 
Why should you pay the price,
except for the Lord?

2. And let all who seek, let them come to the water.
And let all who have nothing, let them come to the Lord:
without money, without strife. Why should you spend your life,
except for the Lord?

3. And let all who toil, let them come to the water.
And let all who are weary, let them come to the Lord:
all who labor, without rest. How can your soul find rest,
except for the Lord?

4. And let all the poor, let them come to the water.
Bring the ones who are laden,
(enter bass and guitars)
bring them all to the Lord:
bring the children without might. Easy the load and light:
come to the Lord. Come to the Lord.
Come to the Lord. Come to the Lord.

(optional:)
I will run to you. I will run to you.
I will run to you, my Lord.

Offertory 643 Gifts of Bread and Wine 

Gifts of bread and wine, gifts we’ve offered
Fruits of labour, fruits of love.
Taken offered, sanctified.
Blessed and broken, words of one who died.

Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.
                          
Christ our saviour, living presence here,
As he promised while on earth.
I am with you for all time,
I am with you in this bread and wine.
                            
Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.

Through the father, with the spirit,
One in union with the Son.
For God's people joined in prayer,
Faith is strengthened by the food we share.

Take my body, take my saving blood
Gifts of bread and wine, Christ our Lord.

Holy Holy:570s Holy, Holy, Holy (The Revised Gathering Mass)

Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,
Holy, Holy Lord God of hosts.
Heaven and earth, Heaven and earth
are full of your glory, Lord God of hosts.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest.

Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed, blessed is he who comes,
Blessed is he, blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna in the highest

speak to the heart of Jerusalem:
the time of your mourning is ended now, 
the Lord of life will come.

A voice cries out in the wilderness: 
Prepare a way for the Lord!
A voice cries out in the wilderness: 
Make straight a high-way for God!

ev'ry mountain is leveled,
the glory of God shall then be revealed, 
and the nations will sing in praise. (refrain)

the grass may wither, the flower may fade,
but the word of the Lord is forever.' (refrain)

holding his lambs in his arms,
keeping his flock so close to his heart
leading them all, old and young. (refrain)

Spirit of the living God,
fall afresh on me.
Break me, melt me, mould me, fill me.
Spirit of the living God,
fall afresh on me.

Final 984 All over the World

All over the world the Spirit is moving,
all over the world as the prophets said it would be
All over the world there's a mighty revelation
of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.

All over this land the Spirit is moving,
all over this land as the prophets said it would be.
All over this land there's a mighty revelation
of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

All over the church the Spirit is moving,
all over the church as the prophets said it would be.
All over the church there's a mighty revelation
of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

Deep down in my heart the Spirit is moving,
deep down in my heart as the prophets said it would be.
Deep down in my heart there's a mighty revelation
of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
