All We Like Sheep Words and Music by Craig Harris, based on Luke 15 Verse 1 All we like sheep have gone astray Helpless without the shepherds care Christ the good shepherd rescues His own Jesus never looses his sheep (2x) Verse 2 We who think we are righteous And we who are stuck in our sin In truth are all helpless without the Christ Jesus is the true Righteous one (2x) Verse 3 When we leave the Father’s house in vain And squander all His good gifts God turns our hearts to repentance Through Jesus has given new Life (2x) Verse 4 We try to boast in all we’ve done We fill our hearts with pride But Jesus shows us what true treasure is: Jesus dying to save His kin (2x) Verse 5 Jesus has done what we could not His work is full and complete By rescuing us from sin and death Jesus extends His pure Grace (2x) Rejoice, Rejoice, Rejoice (2x)

Come for the Feast is Spread Lyrics: Henry Burton; Music and Lyric Changes: Craig Harris Verse 1 Come for the feast is spread, Hark to the call come all, come all Come to the Living bread Offered to all, head the call, the call Verse 2 Come where the fountain flows Healing for all thy woes, thy woes Come to the crimson tide Wade in the river of life, of life Verse 3 Come to the throne of grace All who would win the race, the race Come and boldly draw near Let us now tarry here, tarry here

Christ is Made the Sure Foundation Latin, 7th Century, Tr by John Mason Neale; MUSIC: Craig Harris Christ is made the sure foundation, And the precious corner-stone, Who, the two walls underlying, Bound in each, binds both in one, Holy Zion's help for ever, And her confidence alone. All that dedicated city, Dearly loved by God on high, In exultant jubilation pours perpetual melody, God the One, in threefold glory, Singing everlasting song To this temple, where we call thee, Come, O Lord of hosts, today; With thy ever loving-kindness, Hear thy people as they pray; And thy fullest benediction shed within its walls for ay. Here vouchsafe to all thy servants Gifts of grace by prayer to gain; Here to have and hold for ever, Those good things their prayers obtain, And hereafter, in thy glory, With thy blessèd ones to reign. Laud and honour to the Father; Laud and honour to the Son, Laud and honour to the Spirit, Ever Three, and ever One, One in love, and One in splendour, While unending ages run. Amen.

Jesus Calls Us Cecil Frances Alexander, Music: Craig Harris Jesus calls us: o'er the tumult Of our life's wild, restless sea, 
Day by day his sweet voice soundeth, 
Saying, "Christian, follow me." As, of old, apostles heard it 
By the Galilean lake, 
Turned from home and toil and kindred,
 Leaving all for his dear sake. Jesus calls us from the worship
 Of the vain world's golden store, 
From each idol that would keep us, 
Saying, "Christian, love me more." In our joys and in our sorrows, 
Days of toil and hours of ease,
 Still he calls, in cares and pleasures,
 "Christian, love me more than these." Jesus calls us: by thy mercies,
 Saviour, may we hear thy call,
 Give our hearts to thine obedience,
 Serve and love thee best of all.

O Word of God Incarnate Text. William W. How, Music. Craig Harris Verse 1 O Word of God incarnate, O Wisdom from on high, O Truth unchanged, unchanging, O Light of our dark sky: We praise you for the radiance, that from the hallowed page, A lantern to our footsteps, shines on from age to age. Verse 2 The church from you, our Savior, received the gift divine, And still that light is lifted o'er all the earth to shine. It is the sacred vessel where gems of truth are stored; It is the heaven-drawn picture of Christ, the living Word. Verse 3 The Scripture is a banner before God's host unfurled; It is a shining beacon above the darkling world. It is the chart and compass that o'er life's surging tide, Mid mists and rocks and quicksands, to you, O Christ, will guide. Verse 4 O make your church, dear Savior, a lamp of purest gold, To bear before the nations your true light as of old. O teach your wandering pilgrims by this their path to trace, Till, clouds and darkness ended, they see you face to face.

We Have Been Justified by Faith Craig Harris Verse 1 We have been justified by faith We have a peace with God Through our Lord Jesus Christ who came To reconcile his flock Verse 2 God shows His love for those he chose While we were yet in Sin Though sinners strong we still may be Christ’s blood avails for me Verse 3 Jesus the one pure sacrifice Our sin can be destroyed When by faith we clothe in righteousness Then with Him we may be saved Outro Hallelujah to our Lord who died and To our Lord who rose, up from the grave Hallelujah, to our God who saves and To our God who reigns, from heaven on High
