1 MORNING WORSHIP TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 3 PACIFIC GROVE, CA Tweet to #uumainstitute

2 Morning Song Rank By Rank Words: John Huntley Skrine, ; Carl Seaburg, ; Kendyl Gibbons, b. 1955, Music: Henry Walford Davies, #358 Singing the Living Tradition.

3 1. Rank by rank again we stand, from the four winds gathered hither. Loud the hallowed walls demand whence we come and how, and whither. From their stillness breaking clear, echoes wake to warn or cheer; higher truth from saint and seer call to us assembled here.

4 2. Ours the years' memorial store, honored days and names we reckon, days of comrades gone before, lives that speak and deeds that beckon. From the dreaming of the night to the labors of the day, shines their everlasting light, guiding us upon our way.

5 3. Never from that summons swerve; Hark the prophets' living chorus, Truth and freedom still to serve Show the present way before us. As we hope, so shall we dare-- Hands to labor, hearts to prayer; Clouds of witness call us on, That a nobler age may dawn.

6 4. Though the path be hard and long, still we strive in expectation; join we now their ageless song one with them in aspiration. One in name, in honor one, guard we well the crown they won; what they dreamed be ours to do, hope their hopes, and seal them true.

7 Morning Song O We Give Thanks Words and Music: Wendy Luella Perkins, b Copyright 2004, Used with permission. #1010 Singing the Journey.

8 Oh, we give thanks for this precious day, For all gathered here, and those far away; For this time we share with love and care, Oh, we give thanks for this precious day.

9 Morning Song Morning Has Come Words & Music: Jason Shelton Copyright 2001; Used with permission. #1000 Singing the Journey.

10 1. Morning has come, arise and greet the day! Dance with joy and sing a song of gladness! The light of hope here shines upon each face - May it bring faith to guide our journey home. 2. A new day dawns, once more the gift is giv n; Wonder fills this moment shared together. The light of peace here shines upon each face - May it bring faith to guide our journey home.

11 3. Open our eyes to see that life abounds; Open hearts to welcome it among us. The light of love here shines upon each face - May it bring faith to guide our journey home.

12 Greeting Rev. Tom Schade

13 Call to Worship Rev. Tom Schade

14 Chalice Lighting Rise Up, O Flame Music: Christoph Praetorius (c ) #362 Singing the Living Tradition.

15 Rise up, O flame, by thy light glowing, Show to us beauty, vision, and joy.

16 Reading The Cure at Troy by Seamus Heaney Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt

17 Prayer Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt

18 Choir Anthem Seize on Today Words: Henry David Thoreau ( ), Music: Clif Hardin Copyright 2002, Barton Rhodes Press; Used with permission.

19 Carpe Diem! Build not on to-morrow, But seize on to-day! From no future borrow, The present to pay. Wait not any longer Thy work to begin; The worker grows stronger, Be steadfast and win!

20 Forbode not new sorrow Bear that of to-day, And trust that the morrow Shall chase it away. The task of the present Be sure to fulfil; If sad, or if pleasant, Be true to it still.

21 God sendeth us sorrow And cloudeth our day; His sun on the morrow Shines bright on our way.

22 Offering

23 Sermon The longed-for tidal wave Rev. Tom Schade

24 Hymn Standing on the Side of Love Words & Music: Jason Shelton Copyright 2004, Yelton Rhodes Music; Used with permission. #1014 Singing the Journey.

25 1. The promise of the Spirit: Faith, hope and love abide. And so every soul is blessed and made whole; The truth in our hearts is our guide. We are standing on the side of love, Hands joined together as hearts beat as one. Emboldened by faith we dare to proclaim We are standing on the side of love.

26 2. Sometimes we build a barrier To keep love tightly bound. Corrupted by fear, unwilling to hear, Denying the beauty we've found. We are standing on the side of love, Hands joined together as hearts beat as one. Emboldened by faith we dare to proclaim We are standing on the side of love.

27 3. A bright new day is dawning When love will not divide. Reflections of grace in every embrace, Fulfilling the vision divine. We are standing on the side of love, Hands joined together as hearts beat as one. Emboldened by faith we dare to proclaim We are standing on the side of love.

28 Benediction Rev. Tom Schade
