Come Lord Jesus

OFFERTORY HYMN(Violet in the Snow)

When it all began, God was so

very far away

A mighty King whom man trust

honor and obey

But we went astray and God said,

"My people need a friend."

So many years ago in Bethlehem

a baby came

Like a violet in the snow1 of 3

He was wrinkled and red and he

cried just the same as you and I

And as she held her son, Mary's

secret filled her eyes

Yes, she thought of us and knew

that His peace could fill our lives

So many years ago in Bethlehem

a baby came


O, the shepherds came and the

angels sang throughout the night

And the light of the star banished

hopelessness and fright

Yes, our Brother has come and now

we know that God is love

So many years ago in Bethlehem a

baby came


May the Lord accept this

sacrifice at your hands, for

the praise and glory of his

name, for our good,

and the good of all his holy

Church.


We lift them up to the

Lord.

It is right and just.

Holy, Holy, Holy

Lord God of hosts.

Heaven and earth are full of

Your glory.

Hosanna in the highest.

Blessed is he who comes

In the name of the Lord.

Hosanna in the highest.

When we eat this Bread

and drink this Cup,

We proclaim your

Death, O Lord,

Until you come again.

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 the Kingdom,

the power and the

glory are yours,

now and forever.


Lamb of God, you take away the

sins of the world, have mercy on

us.


sins of the world, have mercy on

us.


sins of the world, grant us

peace.

Lord, I am not worthy

that you should enter under

my roof,

But only say the word,

and my soul shall be healed.

Recessional

RECESSIONAL HYMN(Mary of Nazareth)

God sent the angel Gabriel to see

Mary of Galilee

She was chosen as the favored

one, God’s gift for all to see

Now Gabriel said to Mary, “Let the

Spirit come to you

You will conceive the Son of God

‘cause there’s nothing God can’t

do.”

Mary said yes, oh yes I

will, I will have this son

I will do what God wants

me to, may God’s will be

done

Now Mary thought about the

news “How can this be?” she

said

But the angel told her she was

blessed and not to be afraid

Mary said yes, oh yes I will, I

will have this son

I will do what God wants me

to, may God’s will be done

Bridge:

“You’ll call your baby Jesus

For holy is His name

The whole wide world will

know your son

In Him… God came


will have this son




will have this son
