Lyrics
Never See the End
Verse 1
Where can we run, where can we hide
That You will not find us, God?
Deepest of depths, highest of heights
Your love, it chases us
No matter where we've been, no matter what we've done
We can't escape Your love
Chorus
We will never see the end
We will never see the end of Your goodness
(repeat)
Verse 2
Though we pass through the fire or we pass through the flood
You will be with us, God
Though we walk through the valley, the darkest of night
Your love will be our light
And when we are in plenty or we are in want
You will always be enough
Chorus
We will never see the end
We will never see the end of Your goodness
We will never see the end
We will never see the end of Your goodness
(repeat)
Bridge
And in our darkest hours, on our hardest days
We do not have to be afraid
For You will never leave, You will not forsake
The promises You have made (repeat)
Chorus
We will never see the end
We will never see the end of Your goodness
We will never see the end
We will never see the end of Your goodness
(repeat)
Come Thou Fount
Verse 1
Come, thou Fount of every blessing;
tune my heart to sing thy grace;
streams of mercy, never ceasing,
call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above;
praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, mount of God’s unchanging love!
Verse 2
Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by thy help I’m come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God;
he, to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood.
Verse 3
O to grace how great a debtor
daily I’m constrained to be!
Let that grace now, like a fetter,
bind my wandering heart to thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love;
here’s my heart; O take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.
here’s my heart; O take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.
here’s my heart; O take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.
The Goodness of Jesus
Verse 1
Come you weary heart now to Jesus
Come you anxious soul now and see
There is perfect love and comfort in your tears
Rest here in His wondrous peace
Chorus
Oh the goodness the goodness of Jesus
Satisfied he is all that I need
May it be come what may that I rest all my days
In the goodness of Jesus
Verse 2
Come find what this world cannot offer
Come and find your joy here complete
Taste the living water never thirst again
Rest here in His wondrous peace
Chorus
Oh the goodness the goodness of Jesus
Satisfied he is all that I need
May it be come what may that I rest all my days
In the goodness of Jesus (Repeat)
Verse 3
Come and find your hope now in Jesus
He is all he said he would be
Grace is overflowing from the Saviour's heart
Rest here in His wondrous peace
Chorus
Oh the goodness the goodness of Jesus
Satisfied he is all that I need
May it be come what may that I rest all my days
In the goodness of Jesus

Prayer of Thanksgiving
Almighty God, Father of all mercies,
we your unworthy servants give you humble thanks
for all your goodness and loving-kindness to us and to all whom you have made.
We bless you for our creation, preservation, and all the blessings of this life;
but above all for your immeasurable love
in the redemption of the world by our Lord Jesus Christ;
for the means of grace, and for the hope of glory.
And, we pray, give us such an awareness of your mercies,
that with truly thankful hearts we may show forth your praise,
not only with our lips, but in our lives,
by giving up ourselves to your service,
and by walking before you in holiness and righteousness all our days;
through Jesus Christ our Lord, to whom,
with you and the Holy Spirit, be honor and glory throughout all ages. Amen.
Reflection and Petition
(Open your life to God and be present)
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those
who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For yours is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.
Scripture
Matthew 6:24-34 NTFE
24 “Nobody can serve two masters. Otherwise, they will either hate the first and love the second, or be devoted to the first and despise the second. You can’t serve both God and wealth.”
Do not worry
25 “So let me tell you: don’t worry about your life—what to eat, what to drink; don’t worry about your body—what to wear. There’s more to life than food! There’s more to the body than a suit of clothes! 26 Have a good look at the birds in the sky. They don’t plant seeds, they don’t bring in the harvest, they don’t store things in barns—and your father in heaven feeds them! Think how different you are from them! 27 Can any of you add fifteen inches to your height just by worrying about it?
28 “And why worry about what to wear? Take a tip from the lilies in the countryside. They don’t work; they don’t weave; 29 but, let me tell you, not even Solomon in all his finery was dressed as well as one of these. 30 So if God gives that sort of clothing even to the grass in the field, which is here today and on the bonfire tomorrow, isn’t he far more likely to clothe you too, you little-faith lot?
31 “So don’t worry away with your ‘What’ll we eat?’ and ‘What’ll we drink?’ and ‘What’ll we wear?’ 32 Those are all the kinds of things the Gentiles fuss about, and your heavenly father knows you need them all. 33 Instead, make your top priority God’s kingdom and his way of life, and all these things will be given to you as well.
34 “So don’t worry about tomorrow. Tomorrow can worry about itself. One day’s trouble at a time is quite enough.”

This is the law of loving, Give and I’ll want for nothing

Verse 1
I don’t wanna hold on too tight
Even to the good things in my life
What I put in Your hands I can never lose
'Cause ev'rything Lord belongs to You
Chorus
This is the heart of living, Give and it will be given
Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Lord
This is the law of loving, Give and I’ll want for nothing
Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Lord
(Repeat)
Bridge
I surrender all, surrender all
All to you
(repeat)
Chorus
This is the heart of living, Give and it will be given
Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Lord
This is the law of loving, Give and I’ll want for nothing
Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Ev'rything’s in Your hands, Lord
