8:00am Holy Communion
10:30am Parish Communion*
The Order of Service is contained in the separate Service Book.
Opening Hymn*
1. Come, let us join our cheerful songs
with angels round the throne;
ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
but all their joys are one.
2. ‘Worthy the Lamc that died,’ they cry,
‘to be exalted thus’;
‘Worthy the Lamb,’ our lips reply,
‘for he was slain for us.’
3. Jesus is worthy to receive
honour and power divine;
and blessings, more than we can give,
be, Lord, for ever thine.
4. Let all that dwell above the sky,
and air, and earth, and seas,
conspire to lift thy glories high,
and speak thine endless praise.
5. The whole creation joins in one
to bless the scared name
of him that sits upon the throne,
and to adore the Lamb.
Words: From Revelation 5.11-13, Isaac Watts (1674-1748)
Music: Nativity, Henry Lahee (1826-1912)
(Ancient & Modern – 362)
Collect
Almighty Father,
who in your great mercy gladdened the disciples
with the sight of the risen Lord:
give us such knowledge of his presence with us,
that we may be strengthened and sustained by his risen life
and serve you continually in righteousness and truth;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever. Amen.
4
First Reading – Acts 9.1-6
Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the
high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he
found any who belonged to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to
Jerusalem. Now as he was going along and approaching Damascus, suddenly a light
from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to
him, ‘Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?’ He asked, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ The
reply came, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But get up and enter the city, and
you will be told what you are to do.’
Second Reading – Revelation 5.11-14*
I, John, looked, and I heard the voice of many angels surrounding the throne and the
living creatures and the elders; they numbered myriads of myriads and thousands of
thousands, singing with full voice, ‘Worthy is the Lamb that was slaughtered to
receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honour and glory and blessing!’
Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the
sea, and all that is in them, singing, ‘To the one seated on the throne and to the
Lamb be blessing and honour and glory and might for ever and ever!’ And the four
living creatures said, ‘Amen!’ And the elders fell down and worshipped.
Gradual Hymn*
1. Love’s redeeming work is done;
fought the fight, the battle won:
lo, our Sun's eclipse is o'er,
lo, he sets in blood no more.
2. Vain the stone, the watch, the seal;
Christ has burst the gates of hell;
death in vain forbids his rise;
Christ has opened paradise.
3. Lives again our glorious King;
where, O death, is now thy sting?
dying once, he all doth save;
where thy victory, O grave?
4. Soar we now where Christ has led,
following our exalted Head;
made like him, like him we rise;
ours the cross, the grave, the skies.
5. Hail the Lord of earth and heaven!
Praise to thee by both be given:
thee we greet triumphant now;
hail, the Resurrection Thou!
Words: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Music: Savannah, melody from Herrnhut collection, c1740,

Gospel – John 21.1-19
Jesus showed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias; and he showed
himself in this way. Gathered there together were Simon Peter, Thomas called the
Twin, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his
disciples. Simon Peter said to them, ‘I am going fishing.’ They said to him, ‘We will go
with you.’ They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.
Just after daybreak, Jesus stood on the beach; but the disciples did not know that it
was Jesus. Jesus said to them, ‘Children, you have no fish, have you?’ They answered
him, ‘No.’ He said to them, ‘Cast the net to the right side of the boat, and you will
find some.’ So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in because there
were so many fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, ‘It is the Lord!’
When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on some clothes, for he was
naked, and jumped into the lake. But the other disciples came in the boat, dragging
the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, only about a hundred yards
off. When they had gone ashore, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish on it, and
bread. Jesus said to them, ‘Bring some of the fish that you have just caught.’ So Simon
Peter went aboard and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-
three of them; and though there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to
them, ‘Come and have breakfast.’ Now none of the disciples dared to ask him, ‘Who
are you?’ because they knew it was the Lord. Jesus came and took the bread and
gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. This was now the third time that
Jesus appeared to the disciples after he was raised from the dead. When they had
finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me
more than these?’ He said to him, ‘Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.’ Jesus said to
him, ‘Feed my lambs.’ A second time he said to him, ‘Simon son of John, do you love
me?’ He said to him, ‘Yes, Lord; you know that I love you.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Tend
my sheep.’ He said to him the third time, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me?’ Peter
felt hurt because he said to him the third time, ‘Do you love me?’ And he said to
him, ‘Lord, you know everything; you know that I love you.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Feed
my sheep. Very truly, I tell you, when you were younger, you used to fasten your
own belt and go wherever you wished. But when you grow old, you will stretch out
your hands, and someone else will fasten a belt around you and take you where you
do not wish to go.’ He said this to indicate the kind of death by which he would
glorify God. After this he said to him, ‘Follow me.’

Offertory Hymn*
1. Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem,
cleave the skies with shouts of praise;
sing to him who found the ransom,
Ancient of eternal Days,
God of God, the Word incarnate,
whom the heaven of heaven obeys.
2. Ere he raise the lofty mountains,
formed the seas, or built the sky,
love eternal, free, and boundless,
moved the Lord of life to die,
fore-ordained the Prince of princes
for the throne of Calvary.
3. There, for us and our redemption,
see him all his life-blood pour!
There he wins our full salvation,
dies that we may die no more;
then, arising, lives for ever,
reigning where he was before.
4. High on yon celestial mountains
stands his sapphire throne, all bright,
midst unending alleluias
bursting from the sons of light;
Zion's people tell his praises,
victor after hard-won fight.
5. Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
sweep the string and pour the lay;
let the earth proclaim his wonders,
King of that celestial day;
he the Lamb once slain is worthy,
who was dead, and lives for ay.
6. Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run.
Words: Job Hupton (1762-1849) & John Mason Neale (1818-1866)
Music: Unser Herrscher, Melody set to Unser Herrscher in Alpha und Omega, Joachim Neander (1650-1680),
harmony based on William Henry Monk (1823-1889)

Communion Anthem*
Lead me, Lord, lead me in thy righteousness, make thy way plain before my face.
For it is thou, Lord, thou, Lord, only, that makest me dwell in safety.
Words: Psalms 5.8;4.9 Music: Samuel Sebastian Wesley (1810-1876)

Communion Hymns*
1. There is a Redeemer,
Jesus, God’s own Son,
precious Lamb of God, Messiah,
Holy One.
Thank you, O my Father,
for giving us your Son,
and leaving your Spirit
till the work on earth is done.
2. Jesus, my Redeemer,
Name above all names,
precious Lamb of God, Messiah,
O for sinners slain.
3. When I stand in glory,
I will see his face.
and there I’ll serve my King for ever
in that holy place.
Words: Keith Green (1953-1982) & Melody Green (b 1946)

Post Communion Prayer
Living God,
your Son made himself known to his disciples
in the breaking of bread:
open the eyes of our faith,
that we may see him in all his redeeming work;
who is alive and reigns, now and for ever. Amen.
Final Hymn
1. Will you come and follow me if I but call your name?
Will you go where you don't know and never be the same?
Will you let my love be shown, will you let my name be known,
will you let my life be grown in you and you in me?
8
2. Will you leave yourself behind if I but call your name?
Will you care for cruel and kind and never be the same?
Will you risk the hostile stare should your life attract or scare?
Will you let me answer prayer in you and you in me?
3. Will you let the blinded see if I but call your name?
Will you set the prisoners free and never be the same?
Will you kiss the leper clean, and do such as this unseen,
and admit to what I mean in you and you in me?
4. Will you love the ‘you’ you hide if I but call your name?
Will you quell the fear inside and never be the same?
Will you use the faith you've found to reshape the world around,
through my sight and touch and sound in you and you in me?
5. Lord your summons echoes true when you but call my name.
Let me turn and follow you and never be the same.
In your company I'll go where your love and footsteps show.
Thus I'll move and live and grow in you and you in me.

Opening Hymn 345 – Christ is the King! O friends rejoice
Psalm 86 inclina domine E J Hopkins
1 Bow down thine ear O | Lord and | hear me : for | I am | poor and ∙ in | misery. 2 Preserve thou my soul for | I am | holy : my God save thy servant that | putteth ∙ his | trust in | thee.
3 Be merciful unto | me O | Lord : for | I will ∙ call | daily ∙ up- | on thee.
9
4 Comfort the | soul of ∙ thy | servant : for unto thee O | Lord ∙ do I | lift up ∙ my | soul.
5 For thou Lord art | good and | gracious : and of great mercy unto all | them that | call up-on | thee. 6 Give ear Lord | unto ∙ my | prayer : and ponder the | voice of ∙ my | humble ∙ de- | sires.
†7 In the | time of ∙ my | trouble I will | call up-on | thee, ∙ for thou | hearest me.
8 Among the gods there is none like unto | thee O | Lord : there is not | one ∙ that can | do as | thou doest. 9 All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship | thee O | Lord : and shall | glo-ri-| fy thy | Name.
†10 For | thou art | great, and doest wondrous | things, ∙ thou art | God a- | lone.
11 Teach me thy way O Lord, * and I will | walk in ∙ thy | truth : O knit my heart unto | thee that ∙ I may | fear thy | Name. 12 I will thank thee O Lord my God with | all my | heart : and will praise thy | Name for | ev-er- | more.
13 For great is thy | mercy ∙ to- | ward me : and thou hast deliver’d my | soul ∙ from the | nether-most | hell. 14 O God the proud are | risen ∙ a- | gainst me : and the congregations of naughty men have sought after my soul, and have not set | thee be- | fore their | eyes.
15 But thou O Lord God art full of com- | passion ∙ and | mercy : long-suffering, | plenteous ∙ in | goodness ∙ and | truth. 16 O turn thee then unto me and have | mercy ∙ up- | on me : give thy strength unto thy servant, and | help the | son of ∙ thine | handmaid.
†17 Shew some token upon me for good, that they who hate me may see it and | be a- | sham’d : because thou Lord hast | hol-pen | me and | comforted me.
Glory | be ∙ to the | Father, and to the | Son and ∙ to the | Ho-ly | Ghost; As it was in the beginning is | now and ∙ ever | shall be : world | with-out | end, A- | men.

for submission to the APCM on 24
April. A faculty would be sought for
repair and upgrade of the clock, and an
appeal for this would be launched after
the APCM. Discussions about the
boiler were still ongoing with the
engineer and architect, and it was
hoped to submit a faculty application
to the DAC before 18 April, and a
number of other minor fabric issues
were noted. A request for the banner
of Sir Jock Kennedy to be laid up in the
church (south transept) was approved,
subject to faculty. The APCM will be
on 24 April, when there will be
elections for two churchwardens and
two PCC members. Full minutes are
available on the noticeboard by the
North Door.
Help Needed
As you know, we take part in Christian
Aid Week each year. This year, our
treasurer has had to withdraw after some
years’ service, so we need a treasurer for
the period 15 to 24 May. This doesn’t
involve complicated accounts, but the
ability to count the coins donated, and pay
them into the bank. If you can help with
this importannt task, please ring Peter
Townsend on 759286, or leave a
message.
