First of all, I would like to tell all choir members, Floris orchestra players, and parents of children's choir and student choir "thank you so much" for your effort, support, and prayers for throughout 2011 especially in December until yesterday's Lessons and Carols service. It was very lovely! I enjoyed a lot.
We will have a "Covenent Service" on Jan. 1st 2012 at 9:15 and 11:00. We will lift our hearts with one of Hymns byJohn Wesley " Let Us Use The Grace Divine" I pray that we all start the New year by giving our hearts to God by worshipping Him. I would like to share the lyric of the hymn. It is a bold, powerful and heartful hymn.
May the Lord bless you all!
1. Come, let
us use the grace divine, and all with one accord,
in a perpetual covenant join ourselves to Christ the Lord;
Give up ourselves, thru Jesus' power, his name to glorify;
and promise, in this sacred hour, for God to live and die.

2. The
covenant we this moment make be ever kept in mind;
we will no more our God forsake, or cast these words behind.
We never will throw off the fear of God who hears our vow;
and if thou art well pleased to hear, come down and meet us now.
3. Thee,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
let all our hearts receive,present with thy
celestial host
the peaceful answer give; to each covenant the blood apply
which takes our sins away, and register our names on high
and keep us to that day!
