Lutheran Ceili Orchestra - JoeySchumann.com Opening Hymn God Is Here! As We His People Meet to Offer Praise and Prayer by Fred Pratt Green ©1979 Refrain - Jesus Draw Me Ever Nearer (May This Journey) by Keith Getty and Margaret Becker ©2002 1) God is here! As we his people meet to offer praise and prayer, May we find in fuller measure what it is in Christ we share. Refrain: May this journey bring the blessing, may I rise on wings of faith, And at the end of my heart's testing with your likeness let me wake. 2) Here, as in the world around us, all our varied skills and arts Wait the coming of His Spirit into open minds and hearts. Refrain 3) Here are symbols to remind us of our lifelong need of grace; Here are table, font and pulpit, here the cross has central place. Refrain 4) Here in honesty of preaching, here in silence, as in speech, Here in newness and renewal God the Spirit comes to each. Refrain
