INTROIT

Chorale from Jesu meine Freude … J. S. Bach

Jesu, meine Freude
meines Herzens Weide,
Jesu, meine Zier.
Ach wie lang! ach lange
ist dem Herzen bange,
und verlangt nach dir!
Gottes Lamm, mein Bräutigam,
außer dir soll mir auf Erden
nichts sonst liebers werden.
Jesus, my joy,
my heart’s pasture,
Jesus, my adornment!
Oh, how long! How long
has this anxious heart
yearned for you!
Lamb of God, my bridegroom,
apart from you, nothing other on Earth
shall become more dear to me.

ANTHEM

Living for Jesus … H. Lowden

1. Living for Jesus, a life that is true,
Striving to please Him in all that I do;
Yielding allegiance, glad-hearted and free,
This is the pathway of blessing for me.

Refrain:
O Jesus, Lord and Savior, I give myself to Thee,
For Thou, in Thy atonement, didst give Thyself for me;
I own no other Master, my heart shall be Thy throne;
My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone.

2. Living for Jesus Who died in my place,
Bearing on Calv’ry my sin and disgrace;
Such love constrains me to answer His call,
Follow His leading and give Him my all.

3. Living for Jesus, wherever I am,
Doing each duty in His holy Name;
Willing to suffer affliction and loss,
Deeming each trial a part of my cross.

4. Living for Jesus through earth’s little while,
My dearest treasure, the light of His smile;
Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem,
Bringing the weary to find rest in Him.
