ANTHEM: Doubting Thomas arr. by Mark Schweizer
O sons and daughters, let us sing! The King of heaven, the glorious King, over death and hell rose triumphing. Alleluia! When Thomas at first the tidings heard, how they had seen the risen Lord, he doubted the disciple’s word. Alleluia! “My pierced side, O Thomas, see; my hands, my feet, I show to thee; not faithless but believing be. Alleluia! No longer Thomas then denied; he saw the feet, the hands the side; “Thou art my Lord and God,” he cried. Alleluia! How blest are they who have not seen, and yet whose faith hath constant been, for they eternal life shall win. Alleluia! [Jean Tisserand, 15th Century, trans. By John Mason Neale]

BENEDICTION
BENEDICTION RESPONSE: Joy in the Morning by Natalie Sleeth
Joy, there’ll be joy in the morning on that day, with the bright light of dawn, the dark is gone. There’ll be peace and contentment evermore. Every heart, every voice on that day will rejoice, there’ll be peace and contentment evermore. And the glory of the Lord will shine upon us and the glory of the Lord will bring the truth divine. There’ll be love and forgiveness everywhere, and the way of the Lord will that day be restored, there’ll be love, sweet love everywhere.
