Sunday morning at Kings

• These are the days of Elijah - Robin Mark

• Come, now is the time - Brian Doerksen
• In the silence of beginning - Chris Juby
• We bow down - Viola Grafstrom

• I lift my eyes up - Brian Doerksen
• When I call on your name - Ben Cantelon
• Far and Near - Graham Kendrick

An excellent morning. My voice was in better form than for ages after a Sunday off last week. We ran my new hymn 'In the silence of beginning' again, which went really well.

A sad goodbye to Joe Jackson who has been playing bass with us for the last three or four years.

Worship Setlist - June 14, 2009

Sunday morning at Kings

• These are the days of Elijah - Robin Mark

• Oh, our Lord and King - Alan Rose
• Praise is rising - Brenton Brown
• Here is love, vast as the ocean - William Rees

• Jesus Christ, I think upon your sacrifice - Matt Redman
• In the silence of beginning - Chris Juby

• Everyone needs compassion - Rueben Morgan, Ben Fielding
• You are mighty - Craig Musseau
• Rejoice, rejoice - Graham Kendrick

Exams are over, June Project coming up this week, and the meeting absolutely flew this morning.

I really went for flows of lyrics in the set today. "This is our song of praise to you" into "Praise is rising", "We welcome you here Lord Jesus" into "Here is love, vast as the ocean" in the first block, then "My God is mighty to save" into "You are mighty", "Hallelujah, we will rejoice" into "Rejoice, rejoice, Christ is in you!" in the second. Both worked very well!

I taught a new hymn I've written, 'In the silence of beginning', during communion. I'll say more on that at some point, but it seemed to go very well this morning.

'Rejoice, rejoice' really has life as we approach the June Project

Children's Worship Setlist - Jun 7, 2009

Kids worship at Kings

• Our God is a great big God - Nigel Hemming
• I will lift up the name of the Lord - Mike Burn
• Get into the word - Mike Burn
• Be a doer - Chris Juby

Another lively week of kids worship. We had no words for the first two songs due to an oversight in setting up the projector but it really made little difference. It's easy to forget that for a lot of the younger kids the projected words mean very little anyway.

Our theme was God speaking to us in scripture, so we read some verses from Psalm 119 after I taught 'Get into the word', then followed up with 'Be a doer'.
