true source of life, our lives sustain;

to those who find you, all in all.

and long to feast upon you still.
We drink from you, the fountain-head,
our thirsty souls from you we fill.

however may our lot be cast,
glad when your gracious smile we view,
blessed when our faith can hold you fast.

make all our moments calm and bright;
chase the dark night of sin away;
shed through the world your holy light. Scripture: Exodus 17:1-7 Used With Tune: CHRISTE REDEMPTOR OMNIUM Text Sources: Latin, 12th cent.

The king of love my shepherd is
Author: Henry Williams Baker, 1821-77 Appears in 685 hymnals Topics: Eucharist Lyrics: 1 The King of love my shepherd is,
whose goodness faileth never;
I nothing lack if I am his
and he is mine for ever.
2 Where streams of living water flow
my ransomed soul he leadeth,
and where the verdant pastures grow
with food celestial feedeth.
3 Perverse and foolish oft I strayed,
but yet in love he sought me,
and on his shoulder gently laid,
and home rejoicing brought me.
4 In death's dark vale I fear no ill
with thee, dear Lord, beside me;
thy rod and staff my comfort still,
thy cross before to guide me.
5 Thou spread'st a table in my sight;
thy unction grace bestoweth;
and O what transport of delight
from thy pure chalice floweth!
6 And so through all the length of days
thy goodness faileth never;
good Shepherd, may I sing thy praise
within thy house for ever. Scripture: Luke 15:1-7 Used With Tune: DOMINUS REGIT ME

forgiven, loved and free,
the life of Jesus to recall,
in love laid down for me.

to find, as all are fed,
the new community of love
in Christ's communion bread.
3 As Christ breaks bread, and bids us share,
each proud division ends.
The love that made us, makes us one,
and strangers now are friends.
4 The Spirit of the risen Christ,
unseen, but ever near,
is in such friendship better known,
alive among us here.
5 Together met, together bound
by all that God has done,
we'll go with joy, to give the world
the love that makes us one. Scripture: Matthew 13:44-46 Used With Tune: LAND OF REST

3 Fountain of goodness, Jesus, Lord and God,
cleanse us, unclean, with thy most cleansing blood;
increase our faith and love, that we may know
the hope and peace which from thy presence flow.

the vision of thy glory and thy grace. Scripture: Exodus 33:12-23 Used With Tune: ADORO TE DEVOTE

as we listen to your word,
help us know, O God, your presence;
let our hearts and minds be stirred.
Nourish us with sacred story
till we claim it as our own;
teach us through this holy banquet
how to make Love’s victory known.
2 Turn our worship into witness
in the sacrament of life;
send us forth to love and serve you,
bringing peace where there is strife.
Give us, Christ, your great compassion
to forgive as you forgave;
may we still behold your image
in the world you died to save.
3 Gracious Spirit, help us summon
other guests to share that feast
where triumphant Love will welcome
those who had been last and least.
There no more will envy blind us
nor will pride our peace destroy,
as we join with saints and angels
to repeat the sounding joy. Used With Tune: RAQUEL
