Hymn ...........................................A Shelter in the Time of Storm 1 The Lord’s our Rock, in Him we hide, A shelter in the time of storm; Secure whatever ill betide, A shelter in the time of storm.

2 A shade by day, defense by night, A shelter in the time of storm; No fears alarm, no foes afright, A shelter in the time of storm.
4 O Rock divine, O Refuge dear, A Shelter in the time of storm; Be Thou our helper ever near, A Shelter in the time of storm.

Selection.......................................The Coming King Is At The Door (Congregation) 546 1. The coming King is at the door, Who once the cross for sinners bore, But now the righteous ones alone, He comes to gather home.
2. The signs that show His coming near, Are fast fulfilling year by year, And soon we’ll hail the glorious dawn Of heaven’s eternal morn.
3. Look not on earth for strife to cease, Look not below for joy and peace Until the Saviour comes again To banish death and sin.
Refrain At the door, at the door, At the door, yes even at the door; He’s coming, He’s coming, He’s even at the door.

Offertory Hymn.............................The Lord’s My Shepherd
Read by: Sonia Wilson (Cousin)
(Offering in aid of Moneague and Lincoln Seventh-day Adventist Church building fund) 1 The Lord’s my Shepherd, I’ll not want. He makes me down to lie In pastures green; He leadeth me The quiet waters by.
3 Yea, though I walk in death’s dark vale, Yet will I fear no ill; For Thou art with me; and Thy rod And staff my comfort still.
2 My soul He doth restore again; And me to walk doth make Within the paths of righteousness, Even for His own Name’s sake.
4 My table Thou hast furnishèd In presence of my foes; My head Thou dost with oil anoint, And my cup overflows.
5 Goodness and mercy all my life Shall surely follow me; And in God’s house forevermore My dwelling place shall be.

At the Graveside Hymn............................................When the Roll is Called up Yonder 1 When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more, And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair; When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore, And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
2 On that bright and cloudless morning, when the dead in Christ shall rise, And the glory of His resurection share; When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies, And the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
Refrain When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, When the roll is called up yonder, I’ll be there.
3 Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun, Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care, Then, when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done, And the roll is called up yonder I’ll be there.
Prayer & Committal.......................................... Pastor T. Thomas

Hymn .......... In the sweet by and by 1 There’s a land that is fairer than day, And by faith we can see it afar; For the Father waits over the way To prepare us a dwelling place there.
Hymn .............. How Cheering is the Christian’s Hope 1 How cheering is the Christian’s hope, While toiling here below! It bouys us up while this passing through This wilderness of woe,
Refrain In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore; In the sweet by and by, We shall meet on that beautiful shore.
2 It bouys us up while this passing through This wilderness of woe, It bouys us up while passing through This wilderness of woe.
2 We shall sing on that beautiful shore The melodious songs of the blessed; And our spirits shall sorrow no more, Not a sigh for the blessing of rest.
3 It points us to a land of rest, Where saints with Christ will reign; Where we shall meet the loved of earth, And never part again.
3 To our bountiful Father above, We will offer our tribute of praise For the glorious gift of His love And the blessings that hallow our days.
4 Fly, lingering moments, fly, O, fly, Dear Savior, quickly come! We long to see Thee as Thou art, And reach that blissful home.

Hymn............................................ My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less
1 My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
2 When Darkness veils his lovely face, I rest on his unchanging grace. in every high and stormy gale, my anchor holds within the veil
Refrain On Christ the solid rock I stand; all other ground is sinking sand, all other ground is sinking sand.
3 His oath, his covenant, his blood supports me in the whelming flood. When all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay.
4 When He shall come with trumpet sound, O may I then in him be found! Dressed in his righteousness alone, faultless to stand before the throne.
Hymn............................................Marching To Zion
1 Come, we that love the Lord, And let our joys be known; Join in a song with sweet accord, Join in a song with sweet accord, And thus surround the throne, And thus surround the throne.
2 Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But children of the heav’nly King, But children of the heav’nly King May speak their joys abroad, May speak their joys abroad.
Refrain We’re marching to Zion, Beautiful, beautiful Zion; We’re marching upward to Zion, The beautiful city of God.
3 The hill of Zion yields A thousand sacred sweets Before we reach the heav’nly fields, Before we reach the heav’nly fields Or walk the golden streets, Or walk the golden streets.

4 Then let our songs abound And ev’ry tear be dry; We’re marching thru Immanuel’s ground, We’re marching thru Immanuel’s ground To fairer worlds on high, To fairer worlds on high.
