What a Friend We Have in Jesus
What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer!
Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer� Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer�

Recessional Hymn
O Lord my God When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works Thy hands have made, I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder, Thy pow’r throughout The universe displayed!
MEMORIES
Chorus
Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, How great Thou art! Then sings my soul, My Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
When thru the woods And forest glades I wander And hear the birds Sing sweetly in the trees, When I look down From lofty mountain grandeur And hear the brook And feel the gentle breeze,
And when I think That God, His Son not sparing, Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in –That on the cross, My burden gladly bearing, He bled and died To take away my sin!
At The Graveside
When the Roll is Called up Yonder
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.
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. On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise, And the glory of his resurrection 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]
Prayer
Committal
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.
CHORUSES
Meet By The River
Meet me by the river, some day; Meet me by the river, not far away. When my Lord has called me home, Happy, happy home beyond the sky; Meet me by the river, some day.
I’m Gonna Say Goodbye
I’m gonna say goodbye
I’m gonna say goodbye When my life on earth is ended I’m gonna say goodbye
We shall Have A Good Time
We shall have a grand time up in heaven We shall have a grand time up in heaven have a grand time Walking with the angels, Singing glory, halleluiah! We shall have a grand time up in Heaven Have a grand time.
Some Sweet Day
Some sweet day, I’m going away
I’m going to leave this world, no more to roam Some sweet day, When life is over Some sweet day, I’m going away
When I Get there
When I get there (repeat)
I will sing and shout when I get there, Halleluiah praise Ye the lord when I get there.
I’m gonna ring out those heavenly bells when I get there (2 times)
My sorrows will be over and the heavenly joys come over Ring out those heavenly bells when I get there.
