WE BID YOU WELCOME
We bid you welcome,who come with weary spirit seeking rest.
Who come with troubles that are too much with you, who come hurt and afraid.
We bid you welcome, who come with hope in your heart.
Who come with anticipation in your step, who come proud and joyous.
We bid you welcome, who are seekers of a new faith.
Who come to probe and explore.Who come to learn.
We bid you welcome, who enter this hall as a homecoming.
Who have found here room for your spirit.
Who find in this people a family.
Whoever you are,whatever you are, wherever you are on your journey,
We bid you welcome.

Gather the Spirit
Gather in peace, gather in thanks.
Gather in sympathy now and then.
Gather in hope, compassion and strength.
Gather to celebrate once again.
(The chorus from Gather the Spirit, written by Jim Scott from Singing the Living Tradition)
