THE OFFERING OF TITHES AND GIFTS TO GOD (Text 267 367 4910 to give)
ANTHEM Lord, In All Love Arr. by John Ferguson Lord, in all love, my heart sincere, begs you, most kind and good keep near me with your joyful blessings. I neither care for earth nor sky, if you are mine and stay close by, the world’s not worth possessing. When my heart breaks, worn thin with grief, you shall be there, my sure relief, my comfort, and my future good, who have redeemed me with your blood. Lord Jesus Christ, my Lord, and God deliver me, from sin and shame forever free. Lord Jesus Christ, all that I have has come from you, so body, soul, and goods are due in adoration: I offer up what I receive, my suffering neighbor to relieve from want and deprivation. Protect me from satanic lies, misleading hurtful compromise. Support me, Lord, that patiently I bear each loss: Jesus Christ, Lord Jesus Christ, my Lord, and God! When I face death, be there to soothe my anxious breath! Then send your angels where I lie: To raise me up and I’ll defy Death and the grave, in God’s name! Take me to live in joy with you, my soul and body bright and new, my face no longer tearstained! I have been saved, the sacrifice of Jesus opened paradise, I do believe through Jesus’ blood I shall know love, I shall see God. Lord Jesus Christ! With all the saints in earth and heaven, I’ll praise your name: amen! Amen! I’ll praise your name: Amen, amen!
