* Words and suggested tune titles in First Fruits

** Words and music in First Fruits

All creating heavenly giver *

All my hope on God is founded

All you have given calls us Lord *

And did you risk yourself, O Christ *

A rich young man came seeking *

Be thou my vision, O Lord of my heart

Body broken for our good *

Christ is our corner-stone

Eternal God we bring our praise *

Fill thou my life, O Lord my God

For riches of salvation*

Forth in your name, O Lord I go

God be in my head

God is here; as we his people

God is the giver of all things that are *

God of grace and God of glory

God of love, your pilgrim people *

God who came in Jesus *

Greenness dancing in the earth *

How privileged we are *

How rich and deep God’s judgements are *

If this is not our world *

I give my life to you **

I know my need of you *

Jesus lived a simple life-style *

Jesus most generous Lord *

Jesus our Lord, our King and our God

Long ago you taught your people *

Lord as we rise to leave

Lord for the years your love has kept

Lord in everything I do *

Lord Jesus Christ, you call us here *

Lord Jesus Christ, you have come to us

Lord of all hopefulness, Lord of all joy

Lord of all power, I give you my will

Lord of lords and King eternal

Lord show us how to live *

Lord you call us to your service *

Lord you can’t help overflowing *

News-readers finish **

O for a heart to praise my God

O Jesus I have promised

O Lord God your many blessings *

Open our eyes to see *

Prodigal Father, here we stand *

Sent forth by God’s blessing

Take my life and let it be

Teach me my God and King

We are your people; Lord by your grace

What will you give to the Lord today **

When love is stamped on every coin *

When Mary heard her cousin say *

Yours the greatness, Lord the glory *

Zacchaeus was a wealthy man **
