Rt. Rev. Patrick HarrisFuneral Service for the

‘Death is swallowed up in victory’

ORDER OF SERVICE

‘Be still for the presence of the Lord’, David J. Evans (b.1957)‘Holy Overshadowing’ - Graham Kendrick

WELCOME AND INTRODUCTORY PRAYERSLed by Revd. Nick Davies, Team Rector

HYMNHow Great Thou Art

O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonderConsider all the works thy hand hath made;

I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,Thy power throughout the universe displayed:

Refrain:Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to thee,

‘How great thou art! How great thou art!’Then sings my soul, my Saviour God, to Thee,‘How great Thou art! How great Thou art!’

When through the woods and forest glades I wanderAnd hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees;

When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur,And hear the brook, and feel the gentle breeze:

Refrain:

And when I think that God, His Son not sparing,Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in,

That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing,He bled and died to take away my sin:

Refrain:

When Christ shall come with shout of acclamationAnd take me home- what joy shall fill my heart!

Then shall I bow in humble adoration,And there proclaim, ‘my God how great Thou art!’

Refrain:

PRAYERS OF FORGIVENESSLed by Revd. Nick Davies, Team Rector

HYMNO Thou Who Camest From Above

O thou who camest from aboveThe fire celestial to impart,

Kindle a flame of sacred loveOn the mean altar of my heart!

There let it for thy glory burnWith inextinguishable blaze,

And trembling to its source returnIn humble prayer and fervent praise.

Jesus, confirm my heart’s desireTo work, and speak, and think for thee;

Still let me guard the holy fire,And still stir up the gift in me.

Ready for all thy perfect will,My acts of faith and love repeat;

Till death thy endless mercies seal,And make the sacrifice complete.

READINGPhilippians, Chapter 3: verses 7-17

Sung by Katie Gilchrist

PRAYERSIn between the short prayers, the congregation are invited

to join in with the following response:

Minister: Lord in your mercy.Congregation: Hear our prayer.

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.

HYMNThine Be The Glory

Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son,Endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won;Angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,

Kept the folded grave-clothes where thy body lay.Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son;

Endless is the victory thou o’er death hast won!

Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;Lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;

Let the Church with gladness hymns of triumph sing,For her Lord now liveth, death hath lost its sting. Refrain…

No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life;Life is naught without thee: aid us in our strife;

Make us more than conquerors through thy deathless love;Bring us safe through Jordan to thy home above: Refrain…
