- Revelation 19:16 Whether we believe it, or not, Whether we feel it, or not, Whether we care, or not, Whether we want it to be so, or not, Whether we acknowledge it, or not, The fact is, The truth is, The reality is that Jesus is King! King of Kings And Lord of Lords. And...Jesus is King
- Lord Jesus, King Jesus, In this world of trouble, we thank you that you have overcome the world! You understand the mess we are in and offer us hope and a future.

- Television relays the programme As thousands attend the Albert Hall, Music plays and prayers are uttered Waiting for the poppy fall. Young men and boys of tender age, We must remember what it cost As they fought to save our country, Some came home and some were lost. Wars will always be amongst us Death...Remembrance Sunday
- Waking, anxious and afraid, Knowing all that must be done; Sense of dread and taste of fear, How can I fulfil my call? Turning, then again to God Inward glance and eye of faith; Refuge strong and present help, Why would He desert me now? River flowing, life of God Fills my heart with confidence;...At break of day
- The rows of headstones silent stand Their message clear, though mute; That we, in Britain’s peaceful land Must silently salute.

- Faithful Father, As the leaves change colour and fall we are reminded of life’s changing seasons. We become aware that time passes more quickly than we expect or plan for. Help us to make the most of each day You give us – and to be thankful. Thank you that through all the changing seasons...Prayer for changing seasons
- How could Solomon with all God had given, A kingdom and wisdom, great riches besides, Fail to faithfully follow his Lord? – But seeking pleasure he turned aside. A wonderful temple he had constructed, With cedars from Lebanon and Ophir’s gold, Even Sheba’s queen travelled to see The wonder and splendour of what had been...Wisdom
- God, whose love is never failing Look with mercy upon me; My transgressions I’m bewailing – Wash my soul’s iniquity! Lord, have mercy; Lord, have mercy Set my guilty spirit free!
