Gathering Song

Faith of Our Fathers Faith of our fathers! Living still In spite of dungeon, fire and sword. O how our hearts beat high with joy. When- e’er we hear that glorious word! Faith of our Fathers holy faith! We be true to thee till death. Faith of our fathers! We will strive To win all nations unto

• thee. And through the truth that comes from God we

shall then be truly free: Faith of our Fathers holy faith! We be true to thee till death. Faith of our fathers! We will love Both friend and foe in all

• ur strife, And preach thee, too, as love knows how By

kindly words and virtuous life: Faith of our Fathers holy faith! We be true to thee till death.

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to people of good will. We praise you, we bless you, we adore you, we glorify you, We give you thanks for your great glory, Lord God, heavenly King, O God, almighty Father. Lord Jesus Christ, only begotten Son, Lord God, Lamb of God, Son of the Father.

You take away the sins of the world, have mercy on us; You take away the sins of the world, receive our prayer; You are seated at the right hand of the Father, have mercy, have mercy on us. For you alone are the Holy One, you alone are the Lord, You alone are the Most High, Jesus Christ, with the Holy Spirit, in the glory of God the Father. Amen, Amen.

Psalm: 23

I believe in one God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth,

• f all things visible and invisible.

THE NICENE CREED

I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, consubstantial with the Father; through him all things were made.

For us men and for our salvation he came down from heaven, [bow] and by the Holy Spirit was incarnate of the Virgin Mary, and became man. [end bow] For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate, he suffered death and was buried, and rose again on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.

He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead and his kingdom will have no end.

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son, who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified, who has spoken through the prophets.

I believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic Church. I confess one Baptism for the forgiveness of sins and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come. Amen.
