THE LITURGY OF THE WORD
First reading: Zechariah 9.9-12

Second reading: Romans 7.15-25a

GRADUAL HYMN: Lord, we come to ask your healing – HON 319

1 Lord, we come to ask your healing,
teach us of love.
all unspoken shame revealing,
teach us of love.

2 Take our selfish thoughts and actions,
petty feuds, divisive factions,
hear us now to you appealing,
teach us of love.

3 Soothe away our pain and sorrow,
hold us in love;
grace we cannot buy or borrow,
hold us in love.

4 Though we see but dark and danger,
though we spurn both friend and stranger,
though we often dread tomorrow,
hold us in love.

5 When the bread is raised and broken,
fill us in love;
words of consecration spoken,
fill us with love.

6 As our grateful prayers continue,
make the faith that we have in you
more than just an empty token,
fill us with love.

7 Help us live for one another,
bind us in love;
stranger, neighbour, father, mother –
bind us in love.

8 All are equal at your table,
through your Spirit make us able
to embrace as sister, brother,
bind us in love.

Gospel reading: Matthew 11.16-19; 25-30

PRAYERS OF INTERCESSION

THE PEACE

OFFERTORY HYMN: Give to our God immortal praise – HON 155

1 Give to our God immortal praise;
mercy and truth are all His ways;
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat His mercies in your song.

2 Give to the Lord of lords renown,
the King of kings with glory crown:
his mercies ever shall endure
when earthly pow’rs are known no more.

3 He built the earth, He spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high;
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat His mercies in your song.

4 He fills the sun with morning light,
he bids the moon direct the night;
his mercies ever shall endure
when suns and moons shall shine no more.

5 He sent His Son with pow’r to save
from guilt and darkness and the grave;
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat His mercies in your song.

THE EUCHARISTIC PRAYER

ANTHEM: Lead me, Lord (S S Wesley)

that makest me dwell in safety.
