Our families and friends can be prepared for singing with us at our Confirmation Ceremony by listening to these backing tracks:
The Lord is My Light
Psalm
The Lord is my Light
The lord is my Help
The Lord is my salvation X2
Verse 1
The Lord is my light,
My help, my salvation.
Why should I fear,
With God I fear no one.
God protects me all my life.
With the Lord what should I fear?
Refrain x2
Verse 2
There is one thing I ask of the Lord that I long for,
All of my days with God to be dwelling,
Gazing with awe at the beauty of God,
And in wonder look on God’s house.
Refrain x2
Verse 3
I know I will live to see the Lord’s goodness,
Now, in this life I’m sure I will see it. Trust in the Lord, be strong and be brave;
Wait in hope for God, our salvation.
The Gathering Song to begin Our Celebration of Confirmation is
THE SPIRIT SONG
Spirit Filled Day
Oh what a Spirit-filled day this is,
What a Spirit-filled day, my Lord
You have called us each by name,
We give ourselves to you
On this Spirit-filled day
What a Spirit-filled day, my Lord
The Spirit gives us what we need
To live our lives each day.
The Spirit brings
Love – the Spirit lives !
Joy – the Spirit dances !
Peace – the Spirit rests !
Patience – the Spirit waits !
Kindness – the Spirit gives !
Goodness – the Spirit breathes !
Gentleness – the Spirit acts !
Faithfulness – the Spirit lasts !
Self-Control – the Spirit cares !
The Spirit cares ! The Spirit cares
Our Recessional Hymn to close our celebration of Confirmation is:
Moving On Up Now …. Out of the Darkness…. My Light Shines On!
Moving on Up
Verse 1
I was blind
But now I see!
You made a believer
Out of me!
Said I was blind
But now I see!
You made a believer
Out of me!
And I’m moving on up now
Out of the darkness!
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on!
Verse 2
I was lost
But now I’m found!
I believe in you
Ain’t got no bounds!
Said I was lost
But now I’m found!
I believe in you
Ain’t got no bounds!
And I’m moving on up now
Out of the darkness!
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on!
Yes I’m moving on up now
Out of the darkness!
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on!
