ADDITIONAL HYMNS AND MUSIC

Return to God

Return to God with all your heart, the source of grace and mercy; Come seek the tender faithfulness of God 1. Now the time of grace has come, the day of salvation; Come and learn now the way of our God. (Refrain) 2.

3.

I will take your heart of stone and place a heart within you, A heart of compassion and love. (Refrain)

If you break the chains of oppression, If you set the pris’ner free; If you share your bread with the hungry, Give protection to the lost; Give shelter to the homeless, Clothe the naked in your midst, Then your light shall break forth like the dawn. Refrain

Marty Haugen

Shepherd me O God

Shepherd me, O God, beyond my wants, beyond my fears, from death into life. 1. God is my shepherd, so nothing shall I want, I rest in the meadows of faithfulness and love, I walk by the quiet waters of peace

2. 3. 4. 5.

Gently you raise me and heal my weary soul, you lead me by pathways of righteousness and truth, my spirit shall sing the music of your name

Though I should wander the valley of death, I fear no evil for you are at my side, your rod and your staff, my comfort and my hope

You have set me a banquet of love in the face of hatred, crowning me with love beyond my pow’r to hold.

Surely your kindness and mercy follow me all the days of life: I will dwell in the house of my God for evermore.
