Peter – growing in discipleship



Always


Sometimes I seem so small
And the world
Seems so big.

Sometimes I feel so lost
When everyone around me
Seem to know exactly what to do.

Sometimes I feel so alone
When all the people I know
Seem to have gone away.

Sometimes I feel so weak
And I need to be strong,
There’s so much I need to do.

Always
I know that you are close;
Bigger than the world can be,
Showing me what to do,
Holding my hand.
And making me strong.

Thank you.
Always.

Amen.

No matter


No matter how hard I try
I seem to get things wrong;
Know what to say -
But can’t find the words.
Know what to do -
But can’t find the will.
Know where to go -
But turn the other way.

No matter
What I say
Or do;
No matter
Where I go;
Your perfect
All forgiving grace
And love
Is all you ever show.
  

What we can be


Peter was a good man
His heart was good as gold.
He left his fish,
At Jesus’ wish.
And always gave tenfold!

Peter was a good man
You knew just where he stood.
He spoke his mind,
Tried to be kind
And if he could, he would!

Peter was a good man.
He loved the Lord for sure,
It was never that long,
Before he got things wrong.
But Jesus just loved him more.

Peter was a good man.
So much like you and me.
He tried to be good,
Like he knew he should.
And he’s shown what we can be.

Thank you


Thank you
That you are strong when I am weak.

Thank you
That you are right when I am wrong.

Thank you
That you forgive when I forget.

Thank You
That you are big when I feel small

If


If we loved
Half as much as you
Then the world would be a loving place.

If we cared
Half as much as you
Then the world would be a caring place.

If our lives
Were just a little more like yours
Then the world would be a better place.


Help us to love, care and live more like you.

Communion
