We all have dreams— for a new year, for a new relationship, for a better life. What happens when those dreams unravel? The words of a prophet offer solace and a vision for going forward.
Sunday worship with the Lord’s Supper takes place at 10:45 AM EDT. You are invited! Join us right here.

Hymn #696 R “Come, Share the Lord”
Bryan Jeffery Leach (OneLicense #07941)
We gather here in Jesus, name,
His love is burning in our hearts like living flame;
For through his living Son the Father makes us one:
Come, take the bread, come, drink the wine, come, share the Lord.
No one is a stranger here, everyone belongs;
Finding our forgiveness here, we in turn forgive all wrongs.
He joins us here, he breaks the bread,
The Lord who pours the cup is risen from the dead;
The one we love the most is now our gracious host:
Come, take the bread, come, drink the wine, come, share the Lord.
We are now a family of which the Lord is head;
Though unseen he meets us here in the breaking of the bread.
We’ll gather soon where angels sing;
We’ll see the glory of our Lord and coming King;
Now we anticipate the feast for which we wait:
Come, take the bread, come, drink the wine, come, share the Lord.
Anthem “One More Step”
Sydney Carter (OneLicense #03216)
One more step along the world I go,
One more step along the world I go,
From the old things to the new
Keep me travelling along with you.
And it’s from the old I travel to the new,
Keep me travelling along with you.
Round the corners of the world I turn,
More and more about the world I learn.
And the new things that I see
You’ll be looking at along with me.
And it’s from the old I travel to the new,
Keep me travelling along with you.
As I travel through the bad and good
Keep me travelling the way I should.
Where I see no way to go
You’ll be telling me the way, I know.
And it’s from the old I travel to the new,
Keep me travelling along with you.
Give me courage when the world is rough,
Keep me loving though the world is tough.
Leap and sing in all I do,
Keep me travelling along with you.
And it’s from the old I travel to the new,
Keep me travelling along with you.
Hymn #22 R “Let All Things Now Living”
Katherine K. Davis (OneLicense #06098)
Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving
To God the Creator triumphantly raise,
Who fashioned and made us, protected and stayed us,
Who guides us and leads to the end of our days.
His banners are o’er us, his light goes before us,
A pillar of fire shining forth in the night,
Till shadows have vanished and darkness is banished,
As forward we travel from light into light.
His law he enforces; the stars in their courses
And sun in its orbit obediently shine;
The hills and the mountains, the rivers and fountains,
The deeps of the ocean proclaim him divine.
We too should be voicing our love and rejoicing;
With glad adoration a song let us raise,
Till all things now living unite in thanksgiving:
To God in the highest, hosanna and praise!
