LEADER: We remain standing to sing our second hymn:
If I were a butterfly,
I’d thank you Lord, for giving me
wings,
And If I were a robin in a tree,
I’d thank you Lord, that I could
sing,
And If I were a fish in the sea,
I’d wiggle my tail and I’d giggle
with glee;
But I just thank you, Father, for
making me “me”.
For you gave me a heart,
And you gave me a smile
You gave me Jesus and me
made me your child
And I just thank you father,
for making me me
If I were an elephant,
I’d thank you Lord, by raising my
trunk,
And If I were a kangeroo,
You know I’d hop right up to you,,
And If I were an octopus,
I’d thank you Lord for my fine
looks:
But I just thank you, Father, for
making me “me.
If I were a wiggly worm,
I’d thank you Lord, that I could
squirm
And If I were a billy goat,
I’d thank you Lord for my strong
throat,
And If I were fuzzy wuzzy bear,
I’d thank you Lord for my fuzzy
wuzzy hair:
But I just thank you, Father, for
making me “me

Our Father, who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name,
Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread;
And forgive us our trespasses
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the Kingdom, the power and the
glory
For ever and ever. Amen.
LEADER:
We all say the Grace.

|
All
the animals that I have ever seen, Big
ones, little ones, and others in between, Four
legs, two legs, Some
no legs at all; I
like them all. All
the animals that like your strokes and pats, Dogs
and hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs and cats, Mice
and tortoises, Rabbits
in the hutch; I
like so much. All
the animals that fly up in the sky, Robins,
wrens, and butterflies that flutter by, Magpies,
dragonflies, And
the bumble bee; I
like to see. |
All
the animals I only see at night, Hedgehog,
nightingale and owl with eyes so bright. Fox
and badger, Moths
and bat and shrew; I
like them too. All
the animals that live beneath the sea, Shrimps
and prawns and jellyfish that tickle me, Starfish,
anemonies, Crabs
beneath my feet! I
like to meet There
are animals I’ll never see at all, Some
live overseas, and some are just too small, All
God’s animals, Need
the care we give, If
they’re to live. |
BLESSING:
The Rector.

All over the world,
Everywhere,
Where the sun shines,
And where the white snow gleams;
In the green, green forests and by the streams,
Hands are busy, plans are laid,
And slowly, slowly,
Somewhere, somebody’s house is made.
Chorus:
Everybody’s building, everybody’s building,
Everybody’s building, day by day,
Everybody’s building, everybody’s building,
Everybody’s building, in a different way.
All over the world,
Everywhere,
Where the sun shines,
And where the darkest night
Holds back the coming of the morning light;
Bricks are laid and wood is sawn,
And slowly, slowly,
Out of a dream a house is born.
All over the world,
Everywhere,
Where we’re living,
Wherever children grow,
And their lives are shaped as the moments go,
Minds are building, plans are laid,
And slowly, slowly,
Somewhere somebody’s life is made.
All over the world,
Everywhere,
Where we’re living,
Wherever
children play,
For
the things they do and the things they say,
For
good or ill, ground is laid,
And
slowly, slowly,
Somewhere somebody’s life is made

Colours of day dawn into the mind, The sun has come up, the night is behind. Go down in the city, into the street, And let’s give the message to the people we meet. So light up
the fire and let the flame burn, Open the
door, let Jesus return. Take seeds
of his spirit, let the fruit grow, Tell the
people of Jesus, let his love show. |
Go through the park, on into town; The sun still shines on, it never goes down. The light of the world is risen again; The people of darkness are needing our friend. Open
your eyes, look into the sky, The
darkness has come, the sun came to die. The
evening draws on, the sun disappears, But Jesus is living, his spirit is near |
