FIRST READING: A reading from the book of Wisdom 3:1-9
There is no problem too big God cannot solve it
But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will ever There is no mountain too tall He cannot move it
touch them. In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and their departure was
And there is no storm too dark God cannot calm it

There is no sorrow too deep He cannot soothe it
peace. For though in the sight of others they were punished, their hope is full of
immortality. Having been disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God
tested them and found them worthy of himself; like gold in the furnace he tried them, and And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
like a sacrificial burnt-offering he accepted them. In the time of their visitation they will I know my brother that He will carry you
shine forth, and will run like sparks through the stubble. They will govern nations and And if He carried the weight of the world upon His shoulders
rule over peoples, and the Lord will reign over them forever. Those who trust in him will I know my sister that He will carry you
understand truth, and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy He said, "Come unto Me all who are weary, and I will give you rest"
are upon his holy ones, and he watches over his elect.
(Repeat I and II)
The word of the Lord. Thanks to be God.
Amazing Grace
Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear.
And Grace, my fears relieved.
How precious did that Grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come;
'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far
and Grace will lead me home.
Beyond the Sunset
Beyond the sunset, oh blissful morning,
When with our Saviour heav'n has begun.
Earth's toiling ended oh glorious dawning;
Beyond the sunset, when day is done.
Beyond the sunset, no clouds will gather,
No storms will threaten no fears annoy;
Oh day of gladness oh day unending,
Beyond the sunset, eternal joy
Beyond the sunset, a hand will guide me
To God the Father, whom I adore;
His glorious presence, His words of welcome,
Will be my portion on that fair shore
Beyond the sunset, o glad reunion,
With our dear loved ones who've gone before;
In that fair homeland we'll know no parting,
Beyond the sunset forever more.

GOSPEL: INTRODUCTION:
Man is like a seed. If it is left to itself, it produces nothing but when it
apparently dies, when it has been buried in the ground then it gives more than itself: it
brings a whole harvest.
A reading from the Holy Gospel according to John 12: 23 – 26.
Jesus said to His disciples: Now the hour has come for the Son of man to be
glorified. I tell you most solemnly, unless wheat grain falls on the ground and dies, it
remains only a single grain; but if it dies, it yields a rich harvest. Anyone who loves
his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If a man serves me, he must follow
me whenever I am, my servant will be there too. If anyone serves me, my Father will
honor him.
This is the Gospel of the Lord.
ALL: Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.

SONGS:
How Great Thou Art
O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the *worlds thy hands have made,
I see the stars, I hear the *rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed:
Refrain Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee:
How great thou art! How great thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee:
How great thou art! How great thou art!
When through the woods and forest glades I wander
And 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 acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!
Then *I shall bow in humble adoration,
And there proclaim, My God, how great thou art!
