Ev’ry day is a day of Thanksgiving.
God, you’ve been so good to me.
Ev’ry day you’re blessing me.
Ev’ry day is a day of Thanksgiving.
I will glorify you O my Lord, to-day!
You keep blessing me, blessing me, blessing me.
You opened the door that I might see, you’re blessing me.
And you keep blessing me, blessing me, blessing me.
I will glorify you O my Lord, to-day!

ANNOUNCING the Life and Work of
the Community of First United
SINGING: It’s a Song of Praise to the Maker
It’s a song of praise to the Maker,
the thrush sings high in the tree.
It’s a song of praise to the Maker,
the gray whale sings in the sea,
And by the Spirit you and I
can join our voice to the holy cry
and sing, sing, sing to the Maker too.
It’s a hymn of love to the Lover;
the bumblebees hum along.
It’s a hymn of love to the Lover;
the summer breeze joins the song, (refrain)
It’s the chorus of all creation;
it’s sung by all living things.
It’s the chorus of all creation;
a song the universe sings, (refrain)
Now Peter was a most unlikely man to lead the flock,
but Jesus knew his holiness and he became the Rock.
(refrain)
Young Mary Magdalene was sure
her life could be much more,
and by her faith she dared to let
God’s love unlock the door. (refrain)
And when you share your faith with me
and work for life made new,
the witness of your faithfulness
calls me to walk with you. (refrain)

One more step along the world I go,
one more step along the world I go,

PRAYING
SINGING: VU #649
Walk With Me I Will Walk With You
Walk with me, I will walk with you
and build the land that God has planned
where loves shines through.
When Moses heard the call of God
he said, “Lord don’t send me.”
But God told Moses, “You’re the
one to set my people free.” (refrain)
Round the corner of the world I turn,
more and more about the world I learn;
all the new things that I see
you'll be looking at along with me: (refrain)
As I travel through the bad and good,
keep me travelling the way I should;
where I see no way to go
you'll be telling me the way, I know: (refrain)
Give me courage when the world is rough,
keep me loving though the world is tough,
leap and sing in all I do,
keep me travelling along with you: (refrain)
You are older than the world can be,
you are younger than the life in me,
ever old and ever new,
keep me travelling along with you: (refrain).
LISTENING to the Living Word
SHORELINE CHORUS SINGERS:
“In the Days of thy Youth Remember thy Creator”

“Fare Thee Well”
SHARING with the Children: Like a Rock
Like a rock, like a rock,
God is under our feet.
Like the starry night sky God is over our head.
Like the sun on the horizon God is ever before.
Like the river runs to ocean,
our home is in God evermore.
