Missions Conference 2005
Here on this corner, we gather with vision
We come with our longing, to live out Your mission
Send us Your power, Your light and your wisdom
The world is crying, help us to listen
What can we give You
Out offering is small
Faithful and willing
To answer Your call
Chorus
Captured by Christ
Set free to serve
Set free to shine
Set free to love (repeat)
Here on this corner, a light in the city
We come with our heart's cry of all that we might be
Send us a spirit of great generosity
The world is waiting, help us to meet the need
What can we give you, our offering is small
Faithful and willing
We'll answer Your call
Chorus
Captured by Christ
Set free to serve
Set free to shine
Set free to love (repeat)
Come Holy Spirit
Adapted by Lynda Pearce

Come, Holy Spirit, come, Holy Spirit, come Holy Spirit, come (repeat)
Come as the wind and cleanse
Come as the light and reveal
Come as the fire and burn
Come, Holy Spirit, come
Convict, convert us, Lord
Consecrate us, Lord
Until we are Yours
Come Holy Spirit, come
Come, Holy Spirit, come Holy Spirit, come Holy Spirit, come (repeat)
Fifty Years

September 26, 2006
Missions Conference 2007
On a corner, in a city
People gather in God's name
Fixed on worship, poised for mission
Called to love and serve and pray
And the message will be heard
From this corner to the world
Chorus
Fifty years of coming
Fifty years of going
Fifty yeas of giving
To make our Savior known
Fifty years of sharing
Fifty years of caring
Fifty years of living
That Jesus might be known
Generations, with our leaders
Serving Christ in word and deed
Inspiration from God's Spirit
Going out to plant the seed
And the message will go on
We will sing our Savior's song
Chorus
Fifty years of coming
Fifty years of going
Fifty years of giving
To make our Savior known
Fifty years of sharing
Fifty years of caring
Fifty years of living
That Jesus might be known
And the message is our own
To know Christ and make Him known
(Chorus)
Greater Joy
Lynda Pearce
October 15, 2002
Greater joy will come when I lay down my life for You
When my reluctance fades
And I gladly give my all
I see Your grace abound
And I give, out of a grateful heart
Then I'll know, I'll know greater joy
Greater joy will come when I learn to make a sacrifice
When my reluctance fades and I listen to Your call
I see Your grace abound and I give out of a grateful heart
Then I'll know, I'll know greater joy
Help Is on the Way
Lynda Pearce
May 1, 2002
If you are weary and need rest
If every trial seems a test
Your burden is heavy and your way is hard
If every circumstance seems wrong
If you feel weak instead of strong
Your call seems impossible, your way's not clear
The way's not clear
Chorus
Help is on the way, hope is on the way, Jesus is the way
He will be with you on your way (repeat)
If you are worried and afraid
If you can't find the words to pray
Your burden is heavy and your way is hard
If your time seems to slip away
If you can't face another day
Your call seems impossible, your way's not clear
The way's not clear
(Chorus)
Bridge
He says His burden is light
Gentle and humble is His heart
Come to Him and you will learn from Him
You will find rest for your soul
(Chorus)
Hold Fast
Lynda Pearce
August 13, 2002
This song is dedicated to Diane Carruth. Gillian Horsley
sang it to encourage Diane in her last days. I believe
the message of Jesus gave them both hope and comfort.
We're holding fast to the hope we have in Jesus
The one true Gospel who redeems a fallen world
A higher calling, a future with the Father
Hold fast to your faith
Hold fast to His word
And hold on to one another, hold fast
We're holding fast to the hope we have in Jesus
The one true Gospel who redeems a fallen world
A holy freedom, and our hearts cry Abba Father
Hold fast to your faith
Hold fast to His word
And hold on to one another, hold fast
Yes, hold on to one another, hold fast
Internally Strong
Lynda Pearce

Verse
Something powerful is stirring in our hearts today
Within our own congregation
In our church across the nation
God is calling us to spiritual renewal
To pray for our denomination
Share the hope of our salvation
Chorus
We must be strong in our faith, internally strong
Live in God's mercy and grace, internally strong
So that we might have God's heart for the world
Internally strong, so that we might become
Externally focused
(Repeat Verse)
Chorus
We must be strong in our faith, internally strong
Live in God's mercy and grace, internally strong
So that we might do God's work in the world
Internally strong, so that we might become
Externally focused
Jesus Said Go

Missions Conference 2002
chorus
You did not choose me
But I chose You (repeat)
To go and bear fruit
Fruit that will last (repeat)
Go into the city
Go out to the nations
Bring hope to the homeless
The lonely and the sick
Take care of the children
Those who are forgotten
Jesus said go
Jesus said go, Jesus said go
The world is waiting
Will you go, will you go, will you go

I'm on a journey with You
My destination is You
Wherever I go, whatever I do
Keep me, fill me, use me
So I might glorify You
O Lord, I want to go with You
O Lord, I want to know Your truth

Look out your window
Open the door

Who are you praying for
Millions of people
Longing to know
The hope and peace of Christ
How will you go

Of Christ today

Rise Up

Missions Conference 2003
Chorus
Let the church rise up and be a light to the nation
Let the church rise up and show the city the way
Let the church rise up and bring God's hope to the people
Let the church rise up, let the church rise up
Come believe, receive through the Spirit's power
Seek the faith to serve in the coming hour
Find a holy mission and a heart to care
And let the church rise up, let the church rise up
Bring a word of peace in a time of strife
Take a hand of healing to a hopeless life
Be the light of Christ in the dark of night
And let the church rise up, let the church rise up

Our Father, who art is heaven
Hallo'd be Thy name
Thy kingdom come Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Thy kingdom come, Thy kingdom come

Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us
Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil
Thy kingdom come, Your kingdom come
Thy kingdom come, Your kingdom come
For Thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory
Forever and ever. Amen
Thy kingdom come, Your kingdom come
Thy will be done, Your will be done
Thy kingdom come, Your kingdom come
