BRIDAL MARCH “Lohengrin” . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Wagner

HYMN

Make me a channel of your peace,

Where there is hatred, let me bring your love;

Where there is injury, your pardon, Lord;

And where there’s doubt, true faith in you:

O Master, grant that I may never seek

So much to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved, as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace,

Where there’s despair in life, let me bring hope;

Where there is darkness, only light;

And where there’s sadness, ever joy:

O Master, grant that I may never seek

So much to be consoled as to console;

To be understood as to understand;

To be loved, as to love with all my soul.

Make me a channel of your peace,

It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

In giving to all men that we receive,

And in dying that we’re born to eternal life.

HYMN

O Jesus, I have promised

  To serve thee to the end;

Be though for ever near me,

  My master and my friend;

I shall not fear the battle

  If thou art by my side,

Nor wander from the pathway

  If thou wilt be my guide

O let me feel thee near me;

  The world is ever near;

I see the sights that dazzle;

  The tempting sounds I hear;

My foes are ever near me,

  Around me and within;

But, Jesus, draw thou nearer,

  And shield my soul from sin.

O let me hear thee speaking

  In accents clear and still

Above the storms of passion,

  The murmurs of self-will;

O speak to reassure me,

  To hasten or control;

O speak, and make me listen,

  Thou guardian of my soul.

O Jesus, thou hast promised

  To all who follow thee,

That where thou art in glory

  There shall thy servant be;

And, Jesus, I have promised

  To serve thee to the end;

O give me grace to follow

  My master and my friend!
