CONGREGATIONAL JAZZ   “You’ll never walk alone”

When you walk through a storm
hold your head up high
and don’t be afraid of the dark.
At the end of the storm
is a golden sky
and the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind;
walk on through the rain;
though your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on,
with hope in your heart,
and you’ll never walk alone.
You’ll never walk alone.

OPENING WORDS
Loving Creator of the cosmos,
how is it that the music of your spheres reaches us?
A tui’s trill floats across the evening air.
Waves beat their rhythm on stony shores.
A familiar chord comes to our ear,
and we break into song.

All creation sings to you!
Awaken within us visions of your music.
Awaken within us the voice of your song.
Awaken within us the melody of your love.
And bring us into sacred harmony
with each other
and with all creation.

Daniel Benson (alt.), Gathering

MUSIC SET   BRIAN CHURCH AND BAND
