The Choirs, The Clergy OPENING SENTENCES OPENING HYMN:....................................... “The who Tread the Path of Labour” 1. They who tread the path of labour, Follow where my feet have trod; They who work without complaining, Do the holy will of God; Never more thou needest seek me; I am with thee everywhere; Raise the stone, and thou shalt find me; Cleave the wood and I am there. 2. Where the many toil together, There am I among my own; Where the tired workman sleepeth, There am I with him alone. I, the peace that passeth knowledge, Dwell amid the daily strife; I, the bread of heaven, am broken, In the sacrament of life. 3. Every task, however simple, Sets the soul that does it free; Every deed of love and mercy, Done to man, is done to me. Nevermore thou needest seek me; I am with thee everywhere; Raise the stone, and thou shalt find me; Cleave the wood, and I am there.

I love Thee because Thou has first lovèd me, And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree. I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow; If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now. 3. I will love Thee in life, I will love Thee in death, And praise Thee as long as Thou lendest me breath; And say when the death-dew lies cold on my brow, 'If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now?' 4. In mansions of glory and endless delight, I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright; I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow, 'If ever I loved Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now."

BENEDICTION RECESSIONAL HYMN: ............................................“Great is Thy Faithfulness” 1. Great is Thy faithfulness, O God my father, There is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions they fail not, As Thou hast been, Thou forever wilt be. REFRAIN: Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided; Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me! 2. Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest, Sun, moon, and stars in their courses above Join with all nature in manifold witness To Thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love. 3. Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide; Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside! PAGE 5
PAGE 8 HYMN: ............................................................... “Shall We Gather at the River” 1. Shall we gather at the river, Where bright angel-feet have trod, With its crystal tide forever, Flowing by the throne of God? REFRAIN: Yes, we'll gather at the river, The beautiful, the beautiful river; Gather with the saints at the river, That flows by the throne of God. 2. On the margin of the river, Washing up its silver spray, We will walk and worship ever, All the happy golden day. 3. E’re we reach the shining river, Lay we every burden down Grace our spirits will deliver, And provide a robe and crown. 4. At the shining of the river, Mirror of the Saviour's face Saints, whom death will never sever, Raise their songs of saving grace. 5. Soon we'll reach the silver river, Soon our pilgrimage will cease; Soon our happy hearts will quiver, With the melody of peace. 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.
REFRAIN: 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. 2. 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. 3. Let us labour 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. CHORUS 1. Meet me by the River Meet me by the river, someday Meet me by the river, not far away. When my Lord shall call me home Happy, happy home beyond the skies Meet me by the river some day. 2. No grave can hold my body down. No grave can hold my body down. When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, And the dead in Christ shall rise, No grave can hold my body down. PAGE 9
PAGE 10 Don’t cry for me, I will be okay. Heaven is my home now, and this is where I’ll stay. Don’t cry for me, I’m where I belong. I want you to be happy and try to stay strong. Don’t cry for me, I am not alone. The angels are with me to welcome me home. Don’t cry for me, for I have no fear. All my pain is gone and Jesus took my tears. Don’t cry for me, This is not the end. I’ll be waiting here for you when we meet again.
